First to chat to Den of Geek was a very animated and glowing Sheridan Smith.

Touch wood…

Whats that down to?

I dont know I am baffled really, I dont know.

I am so grateful and you never know what might happen so like I say I always touch wood!

I am very superstitious.

Were there problems making schedules work for this special ofJonathan Creek?

Weve seen each other but just to have Joey and Creek back together has been great.

The episodes ofJonathan Creekhave been quite sporadic and people might think Oh is that still going?

Do you think that hinders its appreciation?

It has to remain fresh as well doesnt it… Do you know the twist when you are filming it or is that kept from you until the end?

No, we know all along, we know it from the read through.

I get terrified of even talking about plot lines.

Alan Davies tweeted that there are going to be some more specials coming up this year.

Are you going to be involved at all?

Its whether they could make it work really.

All these things have been just been very lucky really that they have trusted in me.

It is a bit weird; you start going a little bit mad.

How much downtime do you get then?

You cant get much?

I have at the minute.

Ive got a few weeks off at the moment.

Im trying to hold onto my tan in this weather.

I was able to go to Swansea to see all my Welsh side of the family.

I will be away for quite a while now, so mum and dad are having the dogs.

What can people expect from this episode ofJonathan Creekthat might be a bit different?

Weve got Rik Mayall back for a start!

Would you say this is a bit darker or is there still a lot of comedy?

There is a lot of bickering and three years have passed.

I dont want to spoil it!

It is still very creepy and eerie which is great!

There is nothing like it on TV!

Sheridan Smith, thank you very much!

The Clue of the Savants Thumb airs on BBC One on Easter Monday the 1st of April at 9pm.
