Oliver Chris on Orsino: "The one thing I said to Simon was I’m not going to wear a red velvet dressing gown and lie on a rug, sipping a glass of wine, staring longingly off into the middle distance."
We googled him because of where-have-I-seen-him-before in One Man Two Guvnors and hadn't noticed we'd seen him live in Twelfth Night, which sadly bears out his point in the above interview: "But by the time people have sat through the play, no-one cares who played Orsino because no-one can remember he was even in it."
