Trespasses' Tom Cullen reveals how his own family history mirrors show's forbidden love ...Middle East

News by : (Radio Times) -

The former, a young schoolteacher, is a Catholic, while the latter, a barrister, is a Protestant – the very worst kind of sin, certainly in the eyes of many. Their illicit relationship is forced "into secret spaces and dark rooms, away from prying eyes", notes Lola Petticrew, who plays Cushla, given the "threat" such individuals faced for fraternising with the enemy.

"There's actually a threat to life for these lovers," she added.

Tom Cullen, who plays Michael, then recalled his own personal family history, which shares some DNA with Trespasses.

"My grandmother's father had passed away by the time she met my grandfather, and I think everyone was very grateful for that, because it would've been hugely difficult… and it still was."

"And I really think that the casting of Michael, and Tom playing Michael, was integral to that, because in another pair of hands, it could have just been ‘sexy older man’. But Tom’s Michael is bursting at the seams with love."

"It was so easy. Lola made that job so easy. I tried to bring as much vulnerability as possible, because in Cushla he finds this person who makes life worth living, which is what he's always wanted.

"In another world, it wouldn’t have been a forbidden love story, and that's the point. But they love each other so intensely that they're literally willing to risk their lives to love each other."
