ITV drama series Holding, adapted from Graham Norton\u2019s novel of the same name<\/a>, ended its four-part run on Monday 4th April.<\/p>\n

Starring Game of Thrones\u2019 Conleth Hill as the anxious Sergeant PJ Collins, the murder mystery series focuses on a cold case murder that rocks a sleepy village.<\/p>\n

Speaking exclusively to\u00a0RadioTimes.com<\/a>\u00a0for his extended\u00a0Big RT Interview<\/a>, Hill said that his character had \u201cnone of the clich\u00e9s that you\u2019d expect from a leading detective\u201d on TV.<\/p>\n

\u201cI just love the ordinariness of the mundanity \u2013 of the non-achievement outsider aspect of him that doesn\u2019t matter how long he\u2019s here, [he\u2019ll] always be an outsider,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI just thought he was a really multi-faceted character, but none of the kind of clich\u00e9s that you\u2019d expect from a leading detective and something. So yeah, [that anti-hero aspect] did appeal to me. And I think it was developed from the novel as well\u2026 so it was just a gift.\u201d<\/p>\n

The series ended on a bittersweet note, as PJ Collins managed to track down the killer and solve the case, but was later rejected by his married lover, leaving him broken-hearted.<\/p>\n
