In this episode Mark talks about one of his favourite TV shows: the American psychological horror-thriller "Hannibal" developed by Excutive Producer and writer Bryan Fuller based on characters and elements from Thomas Harris' novels featuring one of literature and cinema's most iconic characters: Dr. Hannibal Lecter. The compelling and visually stunning series focuses on the relationship between FBI special investigator Will Graham (played by Hugh Dancy) - who has an empathy disorder that allows him to essentially see through the eyes of psychopathic murderers - and Dr. Hannibal Lecter (played by Mads Mikkelsen) - a forensic psychiatrist who is secretly a cannibalistic serial killer - who expertly manipulates the FBI from within, while also attempting to build and sustain a bond and friendship with Will Graham. Laurence Fishburne also stars as Jack Crawford, the head of the Behavioral Sciences department of the FBI, who recruites Will Graham to help investigate a serial killer in Minnesota - which in turn leads him into the path of Dr. Hannibal Lecter, who pushes Will Graham to limits of his sanity. The cast also stars Gillian Anderson as Bedelia Du Maurier (Dr. Lecter's psychotherapist), Caroline Dhavernas as Alana Bloom, Hettienne Park as Beverly Katz, Lara Jean Chorostecki as Fredericka "Freddie" Lounds, as well as a plethora of wonderful actors playing memorable characters that feature through all 3 seasons of this award-winning and phenomenonal TV series.
