Craig noticed that “in a situation that would have left most of us flustered”, Brooks’s “pace of speaking was calm and measured… She’s just: charm, charm, charm offensive”.
“Even when the evidence is absolutely against her she can see a way around it… Somebody like Rebekah Brooks absolutely thrives in that kind of situation.
When you look under the rock and think: ‘Oh my god!’”The total control Craig personifies as Brooks is balanced by her other big telly role this month, in Sally Wainwright’s new BBC drama, Riot Women.
But Craig stresses that Riot Women isn’t a menopause show.
Riot Women is out on 16 October on BBCiPlayer
