The Chancellor, impersonated by Roger Allam (the original Javert in the musical ?Les Miserables?) with a puffed-out chest that shows awareness of his charismatic statesmanship, relishes danger, even the threat of a spy in his bosom: ?The merest possibility that Gunther is not what he seems makes him infinitely more tolerable...
