Personal Quote:
The modern style of acting is all in the moment but Poirot isn't like that at all. I get out of the car already in his mindset and as soon as the moustache goes on, that's the trigger because I can't move my top lip as David Suchet any more. I've got a very big laugh, but if I laughed like me I would ping it off! See more »Trivia:
His last name is pronounced 'Su-shay'. See more »Star Sign:
