Sue Vertue Is A Very Smart Woman

Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat Clue Us In About ‘Sherlock’

Sue [Virtue] immediately sat us down and said, ‘No let us do it. Lets find the time.’ And I said, ‘Oh, but we’re really, really busy…’ and then she said, ‘You’re always going to be really, really busy. Lets just get some scripts done.’

I didn’t correct the typo in the quote, but it’s actually Sue Vertue.

I like her tack: Yes, you’re busy, you always are — but do it anyway.

Is This Now The Tipping Point For eBooks?
