Lovely interview with Richard Rankin

[jo]

This is a lovely, long interview with Richard Rankin from the Herald Scotland.

While Rankin wouldn't begin acting until his twenties, there were signs of a budding performer long before that. "I went through many a creative outlet," he says. "My dad was a drummer and into his music. That was something he had pursued early on before he joined the police.

"My earliest memory of music was listening to Billy Joel. I have many vivid memories of me dancing around in a nappy singing Uptown Girl."
