SPOILER WARNING!
On the character of Juan Borgia:
“I enjoyed the contrast,” Oakes told me. “You got this wonderful meeting between what [creator] Neil Jordan wanted initially for Juan to be, and what they ended up with having cast me in the role. I was always trying to show Neil that behind the arrogance and uselessness, there sort of was this true human being that desired to impress people. Towards the end you ended up with this great, great clash of the two.”
