"Tommy is a man with a chequered background. Fundamentally, he has a steely sense of pride and a simple but clear ethical framework within which he lives. We all developed back stories for our characters and for my part, Tommy was a skilled gambler and once worked on the boats in the Thames Estuary. I've imagined that he probably did something heart-warming and noble like take the blame for his unreliable brother who was cheating at cards. Back then you could be sent over to the colonies for a crime as small as stealing a wallet or indeed cheating at cards. He’s a man who by virtue of his personality, character and a certain charisma, finds himself in a position of influence in this benighted community."
