“I’m on season seven,” laughs the busy actor, whose credits include ITV’s Our Girl and the BBC’s Line Of Duty. “I’m hooked! I’m a huge fan, like everybody, and came to it late. I try not to watch things I enjoy too quickly, so I’m trying not to hear any spoilers! It set the benchmark for fantasy.”
For Royce – who also played musical director Burt Rhodes in recent Judy Garland biopic Judy – surpassing that benchmark isn’t (necessarily) about elaborate sets or far-flung on-set locations.
“I’ve done big-budget movies,” he explains. “[But] it doesn’t matter how big the production is. It comes down to relationships and connection.”
