Mark Gatiss and the cast and crew of Bookish | BFI Q&A

Mark Gatiss, star of the crime drama Bookish, visits BFI Southbank to talk about the show. Gatiss plays Gabriel Book, a bookshop owner and investigator, who works in tandem with his childhood best friend and wife Trottie (Polly Walker), Book and Trottie run his shop and mystery solving enterprise in parallel as he leads a double-life. He is at-once allied to the police and must keep them at a distance as he hides his life as a gay man in post-war London. When Book and Trottie take in Jack (Connor Finch) to assist in the shop and on the cases, it seems altruistic, another chance for a young offender. It becomes clear, however, that Jack's hiring wasn't quite as random as it first appeared… Created and starring Mark Gatiss and produced by Eagle Eye Drama for U&Alibi: https://www.uandalibi.co.uk/.
