Charles on the set of Coup (for Channel 4)

Posted on 22:17 by khali
Charles, Chris Mullin, Gina Mc Kee, Gabriel Byrne
Gabriel Byrne plays the pivotal role of politician Tom Dawkins, the reluctant hero at the heart of this contemporary conspiracy thriller, who finds himself thrust into the spotlight of front-line politics when he least expects to be, and who risks everything by taking on the might of the establishment.

A massive industrial accident on Teesside leaves several people dead and raises awkward questions about the safety procedures of the US petrochemical company involved. As a man who has a profound belief in transparency and open government, Dawkins (Byrne) will have to tackle vested interests, financial, media, and military, both domestic and international, in his pursuit to uncover the truth and get justice for the families affected by the disaster. Along the way, he will struggle to keep his party onside and the electorate behind him, as he also weathers damaging revelations about his personal life. And as the investigation into the Teesside disaster proceeds, Dawkins becomes aware of establishment's secret ties to the petrochemical company and comes to realise that there are bigger powers at play behind the scenes.

from Chris Mullin
I find myself sharing a car with Charles Dance and Gina McKee. Gina, it turns out, is the daughter of a Durham miner, who for a time lived in Sunderland, about a mile from where I live. We are driven to a leafy part of Cheshire popular with Premier League footballers and delivered to a trailer encampment alongside a decaying walled garden.

We are shown into the green room, a schoolhouse. The actors, all old hands, know each other by sight, if not by name. Charles shakes hands with Lia Williams. Her face rings a bell, but he can't quite place her. "Have we worked together before?" "Yes," she replies. "In Birmingham. I was your wife." Today she is the head of MI5. Charles is the chief whip.
