Personality

Episode 1
Day 1: The Election

Laurence Blunderclatch first appears on Day 1, being introduced in the ad break prior to his interview. He complains to his agent, Rob, about doing more than one interview per day when only one was agreed on, demanding that his contract is checked. Following that, he threatens Rob when he discovers that his provided bagel isn't whole wheat.

Once the cameras go live, Megan Wolfe introduces Blunderclatch, thanking him for coming on. He returns the thanks, stating that being on the news is among one of the greatest joys of his life. Megan then asks him about what it was like in his most recent film, The Medicated.

In response, Laurence exclaims that the film's production was a wild ride, giving praise to the director of the film, Peter Jensen, calling him a wonderful chap. He then discusses the difficulty of playing his character in the film, Doctor Lance Hemlock, claiming it was a complete departure from his previous role as Sergeant Brock Rockman in Bullet Man. When Megan comments on the two best actor awards from the role, Blunderclatch slyly responds by saying that he's not in it for the awards, although the three little statues do take pride of place on his mantelpiece.

When asked what drives him to act, he gives a cryptic response about suffering for one's audience. He goes on to mention that he is motivated by the change he can make in the world by inspiring others. Megan uses his response to segway into a different topic, asking him for his opinion on the election's result. He expresses discomfort, then answering that when it comes to politics, one should always strive to not mess it up.

Megan, following his answer, claims that he brought in a clip from The Medicated, which opens the following week around the country, requesting to be informed of what happens in the clip. He obliges, stating that it's a pivotal scene where his character in the film is faced with a decision that could affect humanity's very survival.

Following the interview, whilst the film's preview is being played, Laurence demands that Rob get the car and that they're out of there. Jenny walks up to him, claiming that she knows that he's upset, but gets interrupted by Laurence, angry that Megan brought up politics which put him on the spot in an embarrassing situation. He asks them what kind of operation they're running, before turning to Rob, telling him that he'll be at the Dorset, and should send up a bottle of scotch and a whole ham, adding on that it's in his contract.
