to being really cool and brave and strong\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, in an <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/drama\/david-tennant-inside-man-bbc-exclusive-newsupdate\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">exclusive interview<\/a> with <strong>RadioTimes.com<\/strong>, the show\u2019s creator Steven Moffat spoke about Janice\u2019s role in the drama, as it is set to play out following that shocking scene midway through when David Tennant\u2019s character Harry locks her in his cellar.<\/p>\n<p>Moffat noted that Janice is not a \u201csaintly\u201d or \u201cvirtuous\u201d character, and that if he had portrayed her as such he would be falling into an old dramatic cliche.<\/p>\n<p>He said: \u201cI think something that we all do as writers \u2013 I\u2019ve done it many times \u2013 is you somehow equate virtue with victimhood. There\u2019s nothing about being a victim that makes you virtuous. In fact, arguably the opposite. If you\u2019re being victimised, you\u2019re probably going to get worse, not better.\u201d<\/p> <p>Moffat continued: \u201cThere\u2019s nothing saintly about having a boot in your face, right? You don\u2019t remove the boot with a grateful smile. You corner someone and they can turn pretty bloody feral. That\u2019s what humans are like \u2013 of course we\u2019re like it, how the hell would we not be like that?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJanice is a handful in that cellar \u2013 she promises she will not make it easy and, my God, it is not. You realise from the first scene that she\u2019s not somebody who\u2019s going to step aside. She\u2019s not going to lie down, ever.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Inside Man is continues on BBC One and <a href=\"\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/iplayer&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">BBC iPlayer<\/a> on Tuesday 27th September at 9pm.
