Now, are all the traitors present?

Let's get started, shall we?

From rags to riches.

I'm so sick of this.

Working like a dog and being treated worse.

Yorkshire to New York.

Poor climbers, you and me.

A life dedicated to revenge.

Let's make this an occasion to remember.

A woman of substance on Channel 4.

Stream now. Hey everybody, it's Will and it's story time.

I am mostly retired from acting, but for about the last 15 years before I sort of hung them up, I played a lot

of villains. Most of them were that guy you loved to hate, right? Because it wasn't evil. He wasn't

cruel. He was just overconfident and ignorant, kind of annoying, got in the way of the

heroes. Characters like Fox in the Guild, chaos, in leverage, Dr. Parrish and Eureka, they also

carried the faint promise of redemption. So maybe some people in the audience passively cheered for them.

During my villain era, I discovered that to be the villain, you have to be the hero of your own story.

And a lot of the fun I had bringing those characters to life was found by exploring the reasons I needed to justify all of

the villainous things I did.

And hopefully those reasons rounded the characters out, made them a little more interesting

and a little more complex than just a twirled mustache.

This week's story features one of history's very memorable, real-life villains.
