Three interviews with Tom in one day! What a treat! Elle shared their interview with Tom online, and included some kind words about his performance as Claude Sabine: "The complex role also reveals Riley as an actor to watch. He channels Claude's low moments with an intense gravity, just as he's able to unveil the character's more vulnerable side."

The Collection: Tom Riley explains about accents used by the international cast

  • Alt

As The Collection is released in its entirety on Amazon Prime USA (well, less 50 minutes shown elsewhere), we finally have an interview with Tom to help promote the show! It is quite brief, but we are grateful for anything. Tom reveals the decisions behind the use of different accents in The Collection. I actually thought it was to show class differences (perceived or actual), so interesting to find out the true reason.

The Collection: new interview with Tom for Red Online about his best things

  • Alt

We have yet another Tom treat, with a third interview with him in as many days, this time talking about his best things in life for Red Online. Not spoiled for new photos, unfortunately. The interviews have been accompanied by the same old promotional photo - odd when Amazon has lots! But this is another lovely interview with Tom, so we should be grateful for that. Reassuringly, Tom still loves All Saints after all these years.
