Michael Sheen was interviewed in the Metro newspaper about the upcoming series Vardy v Rooney: A Courtroom Drama. He also speaks about his summer job as a student clearing asbestos, and how he is currently working on directing a series for the BBC.

“We only say what was said in court – that was really compelling. As an event, it seemed to say so much about us as a culture. Rather than just being about those people, it puts all of us on trial. Essentially there are two working-class young women being shouted at by posh men and everyone really enjoyed it: entertainment meets class war. Football and tabloids… I found it fascinating.”
