hello hello hey guys how are you very good thank you how are you i'm very well thank you i'm very
very well i've been speaking to some of your lovely co-stars this morning which is uh we
haven't yet i haven't barely seen them no i've seen like i've been like crossing corridors with
them and then like making mad... you look amazing and then yeah i haven't seen any of
them you're the only person i've seen well you're so lucky if you're actually seeing the best one
it's always the funness of junkets isn't it that you you're in a room and then you're just in that
room for the entirety you don't see anything yeah yeah with like a blaring letter it's like
apart from a row a sea of journalists one after another one after another
we're just waiting for horse and hound
you're on the money very good uh guys the show is fantastic it's great fun from what i've seen
so far congratulations on the show thank you so much uh what was it like for you guys to
be part of this ensemble because there's a plethora of amazing people in this uh so
for you two as sort of the the the young ones if you as you were labeled earlier by a few people
what was it what was it like entering into this into this world and into this environment
overwhelming no uh yeah i mean
exciting yeah yeah yeah i'm excited it's been a positive overwhelming overwhelming let's just
a comedy and also an ensemble comedy like they're definitely it was very it felt very organic that
kind of like family atmosphere that was created in Nightingale Hart the office because we very
quickly especially because it was like during lockdown so it was so everyone it was sad but
was good we couldn't like bond that much outside because it was still a lot down in london so when
we came to the office it was just so exciting to kind of like meet new people meet like incredibly
talented people that was kind of a social space yeah yeah because we'd go back home and not really
be able to you know because we were kind of in lockdown yeah so um yeah it was really lovely
actually going from being in complete lockdown to arriving and you know um just getting to work with
so many wonderful people i think um yeah as i was saying earlier just for me especially getting to
work on a comedy something that was that has been written so brilliantly in such a sharp
way the style is so short and it captures the british humor so well to kind of work
on that with such um talented actors has been yeah yeah i mean i think i think all of us kind of
were aware that we were like when we were doing it we're working on like a very special script
like i think all of us were quite protective over it and like we're like this could be you know we
all but i think we were all very excited by it yeah yeah i was talking to john earlier and he
was saying about you mentioned about the kind of the britishness of it all and the art of the
right acting uh which is that isn't going right yeah they're right okay
yeah yeah yeah it's such a powerful word it's such a powerful word in the show it can mean all
sorts but it's such a british thing so is that is that is that like a fun thing for you guys
to play with something like that totally i remember like so my character says oh my god like
none pretty much non-stop isn't it oh my god yes i'm good really um and it's funny like what John [Morton]
can do and what the actors can do with a single right is yeah amazing right i mean anything i
write can mean a lot it can mean any old thing but many women you're fired and we're letting you go
right okay um but the the thing that was really fun about working with a script like that
um which is also quite challenging was that you know a lot of the sentences are broken up
and um you know a couple of words can convey lots of emotions and things um so i think
sort of uh working on those scenes together often we'd be sitting here in makeup in the morning
saying okay shall we just go over you know who's right is who and whose bodies when and you know
kind of yeah like three pages of right no yes no okay yeah but no one that is
okay excited right then yeah yeah it was literally that which is really fun because you know how
often as an actor do you get to just yeah play around with words just play around with the world
in which reading between the lines yeah exactly it was it was it was nice that it
none of it felt like and i guess that's that feels very true of like british sensibility
really say what you're saying you just say right and that will convey everything
yeah lots of guesses as well the word yes it must be a world record for the amount of times
the word yes in the first just the first two episodes yeah yeah yeah positive people yeah
no there's a game in there somewhere isn't there a very dangerous game
that is a dangerous game that's almost like the game where you have to take
a drink when Arnold Schwarzenegger says an ice pun in Batman and Robin and you're drunk with him
i don't think i've even watched that but now i know i think i have but i don't remember
but i was like okay but now we'll watch out i mean don't don't don't rush to see it it's like running
yeah um now he got this incredible ensemble you guys obviously and jack and everybody else but
i've been asking everybody about the genius that is Maggie Steed and she just steals pretty much
every scene that she is in with just a look or word like you were saying sometimes with
that kind of stuff what's it like working with someone like her because she seems to be in no
respect to any of you guys that are in the cast she's just she's on another planet let's be honest
yeah i mean like absolutely agree she's she's just like absolutely iconic like and it was and
she's also she's so warm and so playful and like she was she was a really phenomenal she's done
so much brilliant stuff and had such like a full career it was really amazing just to work with
her and kind of see how she worked and and see how she like approaches a role yeah as well as
kind of like being an incredibly like you know uh influential person on
set as well yeah because i think you know like i think especially as new or young actors if
you like coming in i think it's nice to have i mean it was amazing to have someone like her
on set because um she just has such uh a brilliant um authoritative and graceful presence about her
that yeah just having her in the room would sort of help like kind of lower the blood pressure no
but it really really would yeah yeah just really warm and friendly and i think the way in which she
plays that character is um it's really i actually couldn't imagine anyone else doing that really
um yeah the way in which she plays like the various nuances um but i think what you see on
screen again she's um just as brilliant you know in person yeah phenomenal really she was really
lovely at just looking after everyone especially like you know the younger actors and you know
making sure everything was in check and yeah yeah it's great and also like her jewelry in it
heaven on earth she was definitely iconic oh my god and she got to work with smurf which was yeah
i know she basically she's yeah i mean it's basically you know maggie's featuring all of us
yeah you are you are the supporting cast yeah and we're grateful to be that yeah i feel like
in season two if you get to i'm glassing this for a second but i feel like there's a
we need a Judi Dench or Meryl Streep in a room with stella as well i think we should all fight to be
stella's assistant and i think that should be the next yeah maybe that's maybe that's where
we're going yeah indeed also i have to i have to say i already watched the i've only watched
the first episode there i'm not going to spoil it for anybody but there's something i need to know
that i don't want anybody to tell me but i'm very intrigued what do you want to know well the the
thing the thing that's in the first two episodes is that they're like at the end of two it's not
necessary well it's mentioned in episode one i think there's something going on that we don't
quite know and yeah i've only watched if anybody else watched first two so i'm kind of like i need
to know what this is the answer to something should we say a revelation that is set to be
is it something to do with both of us it is to also send me to do with the cliffhanger
episode two i'll just remember okay okay okay okay what would you i need to i don't
don't tell me it's almost like when i used to watch 24 and there was always cliffhangers every
week and you're like i have to now wait a week i can't stand it i can't stand it so don't tell me
but it's very intriguing as a final question guys obviously you've got some amazing cameos in this
how's your hand in the bottom carter david o'learo who's one of the nicest guys i've ever interviewed
someone for season two for you two as your own uh you know your own people that you would be
uh looking after who who are you gonna try and seek out to get in season two i mean yeah i mean
both in i mean in the film in the tv show it's a film the tv show um it's i'm my character's
obsessed with David Tennant so i would like a very a three season long love affair with David Tennant
me too perhaps without the love affair because that would be involved
yeah i know i know because i think that would be weird given without giving too much but anyway
moving on um david you nearly spoiled something there goodness gracious yeah david if you're
watching this and you're interested in having a lot of fun along with michael sheen actually
i'm sure we could like yeah just get those two yeah like yeah and they just played they played
one i can you know i can represent david yeah and since we're there
Dave is very good friends with Olivia Colman he brings her on bring the queen are you sure
uh you know because of the way in which the show
um sort of veers off maybe we can get Emma Stone on board as well yeah oh bring emma for sure
although David Tennant and Michael Sheen are usually in a room together these days like almost exclusively
yeah right there oh good stuff guys i wish you all the best for the show uh thank you so much
for your time absolutely pleasure chatting with you thank you so much take care later bye ladies
