Strange | Interviews | Ian Richardson
Extracurricula activities

Ian Richardson Picture Does Black have a full social life, outside all the scheming?

I haven't encountered much of his outside social life at all. He seems to be slightly cocooned within the cathedral cloister and in his own quarters, his own domain, his own study, his own little library.

He even eats alone and poor Doddington, who's his assistant, really has a dog's life of it with this old crotchety old Cannon. He doesn't really go in for much social life. I think the only person that he socialised with in any shape or form is the librarian of the cathedral library. And that doesn't happen very often.
