Talk About Fan Service  

Just finished listening to The Dead Line. Two comments: (1)Gareth David-Lloyd is a better actor than anybody gives him credit for and I would happily pay to hear him read the Cardiff telephone book; and (2) Phil Ford has a second life as a fanfic writer.

I've always thought Gareth was a good actor. He has to be to make Ianto such a complex character with what little story he had to work with in season 1.

So did I, but there is a sense of "all he has to do is stand there and look pretty" in some quarters... For a young man he has very good control of his voice and the radio venue proves that.

There were some clips of GDL on youtube playing Beethoven's nephew in an earlier role,and from what I can recall he did a good job there,too.He looks so young!
