David Harewood: "I was not 'black' enough, I didn't know where I fit in"

David Harewood is one of Britain's finest actors, but fame found him late in life after he was cast as CIA Director David Estes in smash-hit show Homeland.

This episode deals with issues of race and racism and strong language is used from the outset and throughout.
