But he hasn't really thought it through properly. "The wheeler-dealer in Guppy sees that there's a lot to gain in either the possession or the passing on of these letters to different people. Guppy is keen to climb the career ladder as fast as he can, and when he finds out that there are some letters in existence that might prove useful to him – in more ways than one – he's desperate to get his hands on them. "They have their ups and downs – it's quite excruciating for Guppy!" "I'd like to think that he really does fall for his angel though," he continues. "It might not turn out that way, but Guppy wants to get her onside and find out more.

"She does also have the advantage that she is involved in Jarndyce and Jarndyce and there is that sort of winning lottery ticket feeling about it and Guppy thinks that, actually, Esther might have a big claim in it. The debate for me was whether he does actually like Esther, whether he really does fall for her or thinks, 'She's a good match, I'm a bit of a catch, she'll do.' "He's the first person to greet Esther when she comes to London – she opens the coach door and Guppy is there: he's come to collect her. "He's not a social climber but he wants to get out of the situation he's in and he sees opportunities to do that, one of which is Miss Esther Summerson. Guppy appears to be besotted with Esther from the moment he sets eyes on her and, before long, he proposes marriage – some might say inappropriately – but Burn isn't so sure that Guppy is the true romantic he would like everyone to believe. He's constantly watching and collecting information but, actually, in his heart, he's a good sort."

If I could describe him as an animal he'd be a bit like a ferret. "I think Mr Guppy is a good soul but he's a rough diamond. The object of Guppy's affections, Bleak House heroine Esther Summerson, doesn't feel the same way, and the thought of spending forever with the young legal clerk leaves her cold.īurn Gorman, who plays the hapless clerk, reveals that he has a soft spot for Guppy but admits that he has some shortcomings. #4,, ©AMC Turn, Burn Gorman, 'Eternity How Long', Season 1, Ep.Mr William Guppy has many admirable qualities – he's always looking to better himself, he'd do anything to help a friend and, as the song goes, when he falls in love, it will be forever. #5,, ©AMC Turn, Burn Gorman, 'Eternity How Long', Season 1, Ep. #10,, ©AMC Turn, Burn Gorman (L), Meegan Warner (C), Jamie Bell (R), 'Epiphany', Season 1, Ep. #9,, ©AMC Turn, Burn Gorman, 'Gunpowder, Treason, and Plot', Season 2, Ep. #8,, ©AMC Turn, Burn Gorman (L), Samuel Roukin (R), 'Against Thy Neighbor', Season 1, Ep. #8,, ©AMC Turn, Burn Gorman, 'Providence', Season 2, Ep. #7,, ©AMC Turn, Heather Lind (L), Burn Gorman (R), 'Providence', Season 2, Ep. #5,, ©AMC Turn, Burn Gorman, 'Valley Forge', Season 2, Ep. #7,, ©AMC Turn, Burn Gorman (L), Jamie Bell (R), 'Epiphany', Season 1, Ep. #7,, ©AMC Turn, Burn Gorman, 'Valley Forge', Season 2, Ep. #10,, ©AMC Turn, Burn Gorman (L), Kevin McNally (R), 'Mercy Moment Murder Measure', Season 1, Ep. #7,, ©AMC Turn, Kevin McNally (L), Burn Gorman (R), 'The Battle of Setauket', Season 1, Ep. #1,, ©AMC Turn, Burn Gorman (L), Kevin McNally (R), 'Mercy Moment Murder Measure', Season 1, Ep.
