God yes. I know AMA comments are meant to be questions where possible, but meh. I ONLY came here to agree that the ending to Infinite is the first time in 10+ years of gaming that I have honestly, truly been mouth-open-complete-shock-at-the-twist and just felt the characters pain.

Those people who say "it's just a game, what's there to be so involved about". Yeah....no.

Hi Allen! I know you're going to get a ton of Downton love in this AMA but I wanted to ask you about In Fear, which was one of my favourite films of Fright Fest 2013 :)

How was your experience of filming something so completely different to what we all knew you for at the time? I, for one, sat in the Empire cinema thinking "I know that guy from somewhere but can't quite remember where" when you came on screen. You did an incredible, creepy, sinister job as Max and it was only in the Q&A afterwards that I realised you were lovely, cuddly Branson from Downton (cut me some slack, we were sitting quite far back...!) It'd be great to see you in similar roles in future - is that sort of dark, nasty underbelly of the human psyche the sort of role you'd like to play more of, because it definitely seemed like you had a lot of fun bringing Max to life.

Hi Imogen (and Rufus!), thanks for doing this, falconry is one of those endlessly fascinating subjects to me and I'm just wondering, how do you keep Rufus from going off on his own little missions? Does he understand a working-day/session routine enough to know he can't just spread his wings, so to speak?

I've seen a few country fair falconry displays where some of the hawks have most definitely had minds of their own and have decided it's more fun to sit on the roof of a nearby building or the branch of a tree, despite being motivated by food. Has Rufus ever refused to play along and decided to blank your instructions instead?

Yay! I shall keep an eye out for it! Thanks Allen :)
