Richard Dormer on Gabriel
When we meet Gabriel, we see a man who has scarring on one side of his face and upper body and we find out this is the result of an acid attack.
Gabriel is a man in turmoilRichard Dormer
I think he’s a man in turmoil. He has something in his past that he has allowed to define him. He is very troubled and running from something.
At home things seem to be absolutely fine on the surface but there is something rotten, something not quite right.
