“It’s fascinating how often people think that they themselves do nothing wrong. ‘If only that other idiot could change, our relationship would be better.’
“That’s what we strive for with this whole series – to get people to see the bigger picture. It’s so easy to see your own version of the story, but we must try to put ourselves in other people’s shoes.”
