During this 1-on-1 interview with Collider, Ben Lloyd-Hughes (who plays Alexander Colbourne, a reclusive man that hires Charlotte as governess for his daughter and his niece) talked about his own ambition to play a Jane Austen character, missing out on being cast in Season 1, initially auditioning for the role of Colonel Lennox for Season 2, what his first day on set was like, the relationship between Colbourne and Charlotte, and the similarities between Sanditon and The Great British Baking Show.
