Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hi, good morning, big fan of obviously love Actually, and
I know you get asked that a lot, and you
here to talk about your your TV show. But I
was just doing some research. I heard that you've never
watched the film in its entirety. It's surely that's not true.
You know, I have five I've watched it one, okay,
So where did I watched it?

Speaker 2 (00:15):
Once all the way through at the premiere and then
the switches fu, you know, twenty two years ago. But
you know, I've sort of dipped in and out of
a few times because it's hard to avoid it. You know,
it's always on TV. So you know, I've watched bits
and pieces throughout the years, but I've never only seen
it in its entirety one.

Speaker 1 (00:31):
Wow, So where did this rumor come from then that
you've not seen it?

Speaker 2 (00:35):
So, I don't know. Maybe it's just one of those
crazy roomors. It's sort of self perpetuating, you know, sort
of into the eater and then I don't know, I
don't know where they come from.

Speaker 3 (00:43):
Well, you had one of one of the most famous
scenes and most enjoyable scenes where you you finally get
to America and the three hot chicks in the bar
start che.

Speaker 2 (00:54):
I believe it was four.

Speaker 1 (00:55):
But yeah, you know, there's a lot of similarities between
Aussies and Brits because you know, we're the same. We
head overseas and whatever country we're at doesn't matter if
we're gorgeous or not gorgeous. People here our accent and
they're like, oh you're an Ausi and you get lucky.

Speaker 2 (01:12):
Yeah, I think, you know, it's a cliche of it's true,
isn't it. And yeah, I think, I mean, I think
it's just true for Asi Bridge that we sort of
turn it on a little bit when we go abroad
as well. You know, we sort of switch it up
a bit and give it the old the brit abroad.
You know, I'm so sorry, terribly sorry.

Speaker 3 (01:31):
You know, Beyond Paradise, you've got a new season coming up.
Tell us about that.

Speaker 2 (01:38):
Yeah, well, I mean Beyond Paradise is a you know,
it's sort of as a it's a great little cop
show because you know, sort of I mean I love
those sort of grim and gritty and dark, sort of
bloody crime shows. You know, we're a bit more of
the old school type crime show, you know, a bit
a bit light hearted, a bit tongue in cheek and
don't take ourselves too seriously. And so it's good fun.

(01:59):
It's a good fun puzzle and you know it's it's
great for the family to watch. You can watch it
with your mum, your aunt, your dog and you know
it's it's it's and you know, I love it. I
think we're pretty unique as well like that. So yeah,
it's it's coming your way on brickbox. Yeah, from today.

Speaker 1 (02:19):
So, since you've been playing like a detective for so long,
are you good at solving crimes?

Speaker 2 (02:23):
No, I'm the worst.

Speaker 1 (02:26):
I was going to give you a crime to solve
to see if you could solve it. Go on, then, yeah,
Tim TAM's have gone missing from the station snack draw.
How would you solve? How have you eaten Tim Tas
and how would you solve it?

Speaker 2 (02:41):
So, firstly, I have eaten Tim Tams. I mean I've
done a couple of movies in Australia, so you know,
I've spent quite a bit of time here. So yeah,
I don't think you could spend any time here without
trying Tim Tams. But I actually went through a whole
packet yesterday. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (03:00):
Oh well, look it's it's really a delight to chat
to you, and it's well done on everything that you're doing.
I guess you could asked this a lot, but would
there ever be a chance of a lug a love
actually redo remake, get all the cast together to celebrate
just such a great movie.

Speaker 2 (03:13):
Yeah, that would be quite something, wouldn't it. I mean,
I don't know, you know, I mean some some are
you know some we're all a little bit older. I
don't know where my character will be. Now, that's.

Speaker 3 (03:26):
Mate, That's why it'd be a good movie.

Speaker 2 (03:29):
Your character, Yeah, where is here? Someone asked what your
curtains where my character will be, and he said, I
don't know. Prison. Maybe I think he's either in prison
or running for office.

Speaker 1 (03:43):
I totally reckon. He's still living in America and he's
got like a harem or something going on.

Speaker 3 (03:47):
I reckon he's divorced, you reckon?

Speaker 2 (03:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (03:49):
Yeah, he's got a lot of kids, but now and
they're growing up and now he's pretty much looking for
a new love.

Speaker 2 (03:56):
Yeah, he's got a lot of alimony. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (04:00):
