Will Mellor has revealed that he hopes to surprise fans with his new role on Death in Paradise.
The Broadchurch actor plays doctor Karl Slater in this week's instalment of the BBC One series, a part he described as a "challenge".
"It was different for me - I don't play doctors very often," Mellor told Digital Spy. "I'm a working-class lad, so I play a lot of cheeky chappies.
"But I've been doing a lot more drama recently with Broadchurch and Dates, and I did In the Club on BBC One this year... so I'm hopefully going to do a lot more drama and challenge myself with different parts."
Mellor admitted that his dream acting part would see him take on an action hero role, in a project similar to Liam Neeson's Taken film franchise.
"I want to play a hero - I want to save peoples' lives," he said.
