”..what about “Sherlock” makes you keep coming back and keep going with that instead of having an ending?”

Well again, writing. It’s beautifully written. It’s beautifully shot. Benny’s an excellent Sherlock. The rest of the cast is phenomenal, so it’s just that. It’s playing a great, interesting character with layers, who is able to be surprising, who’s not filler, who’s not just a sidekick [for] someone who’s brilliant and you’re just there facilitating it. You get the chance for your character to be brilliant as well, you know? Sherlock and John both get a chance to be brilliant. What brings me back is the fact that it is very much based on what happens between Ben and I when the camera starts rolling. That is part of it. But I think what Ben and I bring to it is rather unique. I have to say, I’m pretending I’m not in the show. I’m pretending I’m watching it and going, “Oh, that’s quite unique.” I know it sounds quite self-aggrandizing for me to be saying this but it’s frankly fucking true.
