Blake Harrison on playing a tough 1970s detective and reinventing himself as a dramatic actor.

‘Gibbs has a very short fuse,’ says Blake Harrison, who plays the detective. ‘He is not corrupt – he is a smart guy and a good detective – but he’ll do what’s necessary to get his man and that’s where conflict crops up. He takes things too far at times and gets physical with the suspects.’
