Speaking to the Radio Times, Lee revealed he was originally consulted only to look over the script, rather than take on its lead character.
Then he "begged for the part" after falling in love with the writing.
Lee shared that he'd be keen to do another series, saying: "I mean I desperately want to know what happens next because, we’re not going to give anything away but it’s left with you feeling ‘Oh my God what’s going to happen next at the end of the series."
