Actor Woodward eyes return to UK theatre and TV work
John Darling recalls four seasons on American TV and hints he may do a British Shakespeare project for his son Peter, after a 1987 heart attack. He lived near Stratford-on-Avon, not London, and still considers New York his city of experience. He weighs a possible run of another weekly series with Universal’s fate for The Equalizer in mind.
