The Peep Show and Starlings star on his telly-watching habits

Unmissable show?

I'm working my way through Justified, which has become my new favourite show. It just seems to keep getting better and better. No one has seen it, which really bugs me. There are a couple of actors in it. Walton Goggins, he's one of my favourite actors alive, basically. It's also got the scariest baddie I've seen for a long time, in season two: Mags Bennett, played by a Broadway actress [Margo Martindale]. She's truly chilling but also funny. As an actor she makes such weird choices.

TV turn-off?

I hated Homeland. People talk about it like it's an intellectually challenging show. It's less believable than 24. It had a period of believability … for about 75 minutes. I find Claire Danes's performance quite painful at times. The angst that she goes through, it's just too much for one person. Sit down for a bit. »
