1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,040
Speaker 1: Jump Mission with Jones and Amanda.

2
00:00:03,279 --> 00:00:06,920
Speaker 2: It's been eight years since we last saw our next

3
00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:09,600
Speaker 2: guest on the show that won her a Gold LOGI.

4
00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:14,520
Speaker 2: Back to the Rafters is of course packed to the rafters.

5
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:17,680
Speaker 2: Six years on for the Rafters family. And how can

6
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:20,520
Speaker 2: we even talk about this show without talking about this woman,

7
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:23,040
Speaker 2: Julie Rafter aka Rebecca Giveney.

8
00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:25,880
Speaker 1: Hello, good morning, how are you.

9
00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:28,040
Speaker 3: It's so nice to talk to you now.

10
00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:31,360
Speaker 2: Everyone in everyone in this show has always said that

11
00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:33,640
Speaker 2: this is the best fun they've ever had filming that

12
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:37,839
Speaker 2: you were actually like a real family. So was it

13
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:39,760
Speaker 2: a no brainer to come and do this? And why

14
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 2: wasn't it done earlier?

15
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:43,720
Speaker 1: There was an absolute no brainer to come and do it.

16
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:45,440
Speaker 1: I don't know, you know what. I think everyone needed

17
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:48,200
Speaker 1: that a little bit more time, I suppose, and because

18
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:50,240
Speaker 1: everyone had gone off when they're doing their own things,

19
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:53,040
Speaker 1: I think they needed to give everyone enough notice so

20
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:54,760
Speaker 1: that we could all clear a bit of space to

21
00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:55,160
Speaker 1: do it.

22
00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 2: So last time we saw the family, you guys were

23
00:00:59,080 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 2: little baby Ruby.

24
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,720
Speaker 3: We're heading off around Australia. It's sold. The house where

25
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:03,600
Speaker 3: do we pick up?

26
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 1: We pick up and we've settled in a little town

27
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 1: called Baradina, which is actually Bury, and we've settled in

28
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 1: this little town or my little house, and Rubies at school.

29
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,200
Speaker 1: Dave's got a new business with a new business partner.

30
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:22,959
Speaker 1: Life is great. Julie's working in the local cafe. But

31
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:26,600
Speaker 1: back in Sydney, the grown up children each are having

32
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 1: issues of their own, and of course Ted, played by

33
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 1: lovely Michael Caton, is in a home with dementia. So

34
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:33,320
Speaker 1: Julie is torn.

35
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:36,479
Speaker 2: Because you can't just be all happy because no one

36
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 2: wants to see that.

37
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,000
Speaker 1: No cat, no drama. Is conflict, isn't that. I've got

38
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 1: to have a bit of conflict.

39
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 4: You need the conflict in there. But when I saw

40
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:47,080
Speaker 4: the primer it looks like that Julian Dave are breaking up.

41
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 1: Oh well, I'm not going to tell you that, am I,

42
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 1: because you're going to have to watch it. There's trouble

43
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:52,560
Speaker 1: at Mils.

44
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 2: Trouble at Mile and with a little baby Ruby now

45
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 2: being six years old? How is it working with with children?

46
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 2: Is it true what they say?

47
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 3: Just avoid it at all costs.

48
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 1: Willow is meant to be she's ten now, and Willow

49
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 1: is I think eleven or maybe she might even be twelve.

50
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,680
Speaker 1: No going on forty four. She really is a budding Greta.

51
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 1: She's very artistic, she's very she's super smart. She's just

52
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:20,640
Speaker 1: the loveliest girl you've ever you know, you've ever met.

53
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:24,240
Speaker 1: So I can't wait for the audience's reaction to her.

54
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 1: I think we're going to absolutely love her.

55
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:30,519
Speaker 4: They go through a real ahole stage at that age,

56
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,080
Speaker 4: do they do? They do? That's when you should That's

57
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:34,920
Speaker 4: why you send them to the front to take on

58
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 4: you know, to go to war or something. When they're

59
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:37,800
Speaker 4: about ten, off you go.

60
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 3: Well, is that the plot of Back to the Rafters? Well,

61
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 3: that she goes off, she goes.

62
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:45,519
Speaker 4: Off to war, goes off to the front.

63
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:49,160
Speaker 1: No, but she is a budding Greta. She's an all

64
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 1: about climate change, That's what I said. Now. Lovely, lovely

65
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 1: rufie yep. Very and she's fantastic Willow. I can't wait

66
00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,959
Speaker 1: for people to be introduced her. She's such a charming, delightful,

67
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,959
Speaker 1: funny young woman. She's got gorgeous Do you get envy?

68
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,679
Speaker 4: Do you think you know you're taking on my limelight?

69
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:06,080
Speaker 3: Kid?

70
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 4: No?

71
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,280
Speaker 1: Love I might have when I was twenties. Now, actually

72
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 1: I wouldn't even then. I love kids. I know where

73
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 1: there is this adage don't work with children and animals,

74
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:17,880
Speaker 1: but I love them both.

75
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,600
Speaker 2: Oh good, Well, your son is a is sort of

76
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 2: a budding thespian, isn't he.

77
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,960
Speaker 1: He's about to go to next week. We actually traveled

78
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 1: to Wellington for him to audition for Toyfacati, which is

79
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 1: New Zealand's premier drama school. He's getting in a year early.

80
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 1: They've asked him to audition a year early. So yeah,

81
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 1: it's all downhill from him.

82
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 4: Is he auditioning a year early because he's that good?

83
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 4: Or is it because you're his mum?

84
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 3: Oh?

85
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:45,960
Speaker 1: Because he's that good. He actually won Best Lead Actor

86
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,000
Speaker 1: in a tragedy role in Shakespeare a few months ago

87
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 1: and they spotted that and asked him to audition early. Yeah,

88
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: he's very good. I want him to be I want

89
00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 1: him to be a marine biologist.

90
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:01,040
Speaker 4: How old is he now? Because every time you talk

91
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 4: about him, I always think he's like a little little baby.

92
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 1: Still, No, it's nearly eighteen.

93
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 3: Whoa?

94
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 2: And how do you really feel about him embarking on this?

95
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:12,880
Speaker 2: Because you've had a great run, but you still know

96
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 2: how tough it can be.

97
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 1: Look, I know how tough it can be. But he's

98
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 1: such a great kid. I mean, he's not a kid,

99
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 1: he's a young man. He's very smart, he's funny, he's

100
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,360
Speaker 1: very he has a great sense of himself, very confident

101
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 1: young man. So I have no doubt that he's going

102
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 1: to do well or whatever it might be that he

103
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 1: gets halfway through the acting course and says that this

104
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 1: isn't for me. But you have to support your kids

105
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:35,840
Speaker 1: with whatever they want to do. Really, don't. You have

106
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 1: to do what's going on in the world. Whatever makes

107
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 1: you happy, I'm going to support it.

108
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:40,880
Speaker 3: I'm the same with mine.

109
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:42,720
Speaker 2: If they want to smear blood on the walls and

110
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:46,039
Speaker 2: go to Satanic rituals, whatever gets you through the year

111
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 2: is okay with me.

112
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 3: Okay, have I said too much?

113
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:50,600
Speaker 4: I don't know if you want. I don't know if

114
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 4: you want that situation, but surely.

115
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,479
Speaker 3: I support them in anything they want to do.

116
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 4: I just want them to go out and get a

117
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:57,920
Speaker 4: job and leave me alone.

118
00:04:58,520 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 3: How cranky do you sound?
