"I watched episode 4 last night, and I think it's one of the greatest things I've ever made in my life, so I'm very, very happy with it. It's looking so good, Michael, I love it," he beamed.
The final quartet of episodes for this current series are titled 'Dot and Bubble', 'Rogue', 'The Legend of Ruby Sunday' and 'Empire of Death'.
