Why Do Audiences Love Flawed Characters?

In this episode, I explore why flawed characters are often the most memorable, looking at how imperfection creates emotional connection and why audiences are drawn to stories that embrace humanity rather than perfection.

This week's Spotlight shines on the work of Harold Pinter, whose unforgettable characters reveal the power of awkwardness, vulnerability and the complexities of human behaviour.

Plus, there's a round-up of the latest news from across the worlds of theatre, film and television, along with an invitation for you to join the conversation by sharing your thoughts for a future episode.
