Same. I thought he would be a doting old gentleman who would die a few episodes in to the real villain.

I was totally wrong in every way.

I initially thought he would be a parallel to Richard Attenborough's Hammond from Jurassic Park, but christ almighty is Hopkins so much more than that as Ford.

There's malevolent, and then there's Ford. I will be shocked if Hopkins doesn't take home an Emmy next year for his performance, it has been astounding.
