His career appears to be on the line and knowing who he can count on for support becomes as much an issue as the original faux pas. Creater Moffat said he wrote it originally as a stage play five years ago, long before Huw Edwards and Phillip Schofield left our screens.: “It doesn’t matter which period you put this story in: there will be somebody who fell from grace in TV.”
