<v Speaker 1>nine's new drama series Human Era follows Detective Holly O'Rourke,

0:00:22.840 --> 0:00:26.000
<v Speaker 1>who is played by Leanna Wolseman, and her homicide team

0:00:26.239 --> 0:00:30.560
<v Speaker 1>as a seemingly open and shut murder investigation threatens to

0:00:30.600 --> 0:00:33.879
<v Speaker 1>destroy her career, her family, and her faith in.

0:00:33.880 --> 0:00:34.839
<v Speaker 2>The justice system.

<v Speaker 1>I have to tell you from me this is a

0:00:36.880 --> 0:00:39.800
<v Speaker 1>five star production and I am so thrilled to be

0:00:39.840 --> 0:00:42.879
<v Speaker 1>talking about this with Leanna. Leanno is, of course an

0:00:42.920 --> 0:00:45.600
<v Speaker 1>Australian actress. She's best known for her role in Star

0:00:45.680 --> 0:00:48.240
<v Speaker 1>Wars Episode two, for her role.

0:00:48.240 --> 0:00:50.800
<v Speaker 2>In the two thousand film Looking for Ala Brandy.

0:00:50.560 --> 0:00:54.040
<v Speaker 1>Which I still watch on repeat, and the television series Wentworth,

0:00:54.080 --> 0:00:56.160
<v Speaker 1>which she was in the very first season of. And

0:00:56.360 --> 0:00:58.959
<v Speaker 1>you might remember her as the governor who had that

0:00:59.160 --> 0:01:02.440
<v Speaker 1>very illicit of with Frankie in the very first season anyway,

0:01:02.520 --> 0:01:05.399
<v Speaker 1>she was brilliant. We will unpack some of her decisions

0:01:05.400 --> 0:01:08.319
<v Speaker 1>in playing a female law enforcer and how she made

0:01:08.360 --> 0:01:11.160
<v Speaker 1>some very specific choices to make sure that her character

0:01:11.200 --> 0:01:11.759
<v Speaker 1>felt real.

0:01:12.160 --> 0:01:14.560
<v Speaker 2>There is a great opportunity to talk about John.

0:01:14.440 --> 0:01:17.920
<v Speaker 1>Edwards and Dan Edwards, the legends of TV content creation.

0:01:18.160 --> 0:01:20.440
<v Speaker 1>You'd know their work from shows like Love My Way

0:01:20.520 --> 0:01:23.600
<v Speaker 1>and Secret Life of Us. We will also talk about

0:01:23.640 --> 0:01:26.640
<v Speaker 1>the possibility of a series two for Human Error. You

0:01:26.720 --> 0:01:29.640
<v Speaker 1>will also get some answers about why this show was delayed.

0:01:29.720 --> 0:01:31.399
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if anyone knew that, but it was

0:01:31.400 --> 0:01:33.880
<v Speaker 1>supposed to come out last year. This is actually a

0:01:33.880 --> 0:01:37.280
<v Speaker 1>really fun chat and we get some very exciting revelations

0:01:37.280 --> 0:01:39.840
<v Speaker 1>along the way. So sit back and relax as we

0:01:39.920 --> 0:01:43.640
<v Speaker 1>unpack Human Error, which starts next Wednesday night on Channel nine.

0:01:44.920 --> 0:01:46.240
<v Speaker 3>Hi. Hello, Hello, are you?

0:01:46.640 --> 0:01:47.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm very well.

0:01:47.720 --> 0:01:50.080
<v Speaker 1>I think it's always I don't know it's on brand

0:01:50.080 --> 0:01:52.800
<v Speaker 1>for me to open my podcast with telling an embarrassing story.

0:01:52.840 --> 0:01:54.520
<v Speaker 2>But I am such a big.

0:01:54.320 --> 0:01:58.040
<v Speaker 1>Fan of your work and two different low Gie Awards,

0:01:58.040 --> 0:02:00.360
<v Speaker 1>I came up to you and was like, I think

0:02:00.400 --> 0:02:02.680
<v Speaker 1>you are so amazing. What are you working on next?

0:02:02.800 --> 0:02:05.040
<v Speaker 1>One of them was went worse and we hadn't sell

0:02:05.520 --> 0:02:07.320
<v Speaker 1>and the other one was this one. And I think

0:02:07.360 --> 0:02:09.400
<v Speaker 1>you were like, I don't know, you're a bit like me.

0:02:09.480 --> 0:02:11.320
<v Speaker 1>If anyone comes up to me and recognizes me, I

0:02:11.360 --> 0:02:12.679
<v Speaker 1>feel a bit like get away.

0:02:13.400 --> 0:02:14.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, No, I'm not get away.

0:02:14.840 --> 0:02:17.160
<v Speaker 4>I just think I get a little I get I'm

0:02:17.240 --> 0:02:18.880
<v Speaker 4>going to have to turn that round.

0:02:19.280 --> 0:02:21.639
<v Speaker 1>I think you don't know why people are approaching. You

0:02:21.720 --> 0:02:24.000
<v Speaker 1>don't know if they're being genuine. And so when people

0:02:24.040 --> 0:02:27.160
<v Speaker 1>sometimes come up and say something that's you know, you're like, oh,

0:02:27.320 --> 0:02:29.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, that's a really nice thing to say, but

0:02:29.600 --> 0:02:31.959
<v Speaker 1>are you being serious? And that sort of look of

0:02:33.280 --> 0:02:35.120
<v Speaker 1>that always comes across really strangely.

0:02:35.440 --> 0:02:35.880
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:02:35.919 --> 0:02:39.040
<v Speaker 4>And also I don't know, I guess like most No,

0:02:39.120 --> 0:02:41.000
<v Speaker 4>I don't know if most creators are like this at all,

0:02:41.040 --> 0:02:46.240
<v Speaker 4>but some I kind of be oddly insecure for something

0:02:46.280 --> 0:02:49.080
<v Speaker 4>that's so public and open, you know.

0:02:49.240 --> 0:02:51.400
<v Speaker 3>So I think a little bit of that, you know,

0:02:51.600 --> 0:02:52.360
<v Speaker 3>and that attention.

0:02:52.760 --> 0:02:55.480
<v Speaker 4>Sometimes you feel like that attentions undeserves because you're just

0:02:55.520 --> 0:02:57.600
<v Speaker 4>doing your job. You're doing your acting, which isn't just

0:02:57.639 --> 0:03:00.400
<v Speaker 4>a job, it's an art form. But yeah, I think

0:03:00.600 --> 0:03:03.280
<v Speaker 4>there's a little bit of a get a little embarrassed,

0:03:03.280 --> 0:03:06.600
<v Speaker 4>but that's silly because the reality is that when people

0:03:06.639 --> 0:03:09.000
<v Speaker 4>come up to you to talk about something, it means

0:03:09.240 --> 0:03:11.440
<v Speaker 4>it's moved them, and that's kind of that's the point.

0:03:11.720 --> 0:03:13.840
<v Speaker 3>So if you should embrace that.

0:03:13.840 --> 0:03:15.840
<v Speaker 2>You should. I think that it is uncomfortable.

0:03:16.320 --> 0:03:18.080
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I'm not used to it, Like I'm not used

0:03:18.120 --> 0:03:20.679
<v Speaker 4>to doing publicity or doing interviews.

0:03:20.680 --> 0:03:22.480
<v Speaker 5>I always seem to kind of get a bit tongue

0:03:22.520 --> 0:03:25.480
<v Speaker 5>twisted as well, So I guess that's all a learning

0:03:25.680 --> 0:03:26.320
<v Speaker 5>learning curve.

0:03:26.360 --> 0:03:28.520
<v Speaker 3>I'm like middle aged, so you know.

0:03:29.080 --> 0:03:31.440
<v Speaker 1>Well, thank you for coming on the podcast and talking

0:03:31.440 --> 0:03:34.720
<v Speaker 1>about Human Error. I've watched the first five episodes and

0:03:34.760 --> 0:03:36.680
<v Speaker 1>I am positively obsessed.

0:03:37.480 --> 0:03:38.880
<v Speaker 3>Oh really, that's great.

0:03:39.240 --> 0:03:41.920
<v Speaker 1>It's a really good crime thriller, something that I feel

0:03:41.960 --> 0:03:43.240
<v Speaker 1>like we haven't seen in a while.

0:03:43.440 --> 0:03:44.440
<v Speaker 2>And do you know what's interesting.

0:03:44.480 --> 0:03:47.320
<v Speaker 1>They're promoting it as though, you know, a connection to Underbelly,

0:03:47.480 --> 0:03:49.600
<v Speaker 1>and there is that feeling of that very first season

0:03:49.600 --> 0:03:52.240
<v Speaker 1>of Underbelly that we saw, which was completely addictive like

0:03:52.280 --> 0:03:52.760
<v Speaker 1>this one.

0:03:52.840 --> 0:03:54.840
<v Speaker 2>But I kind of feel like Human Error is better

0:03:54.920 --> 0:03:56.440
<v Speaker 2>than Underbelly. So I feel like.

0:03:56.720 --> 0:03:59.920
<v Speaker 5>Underbelly certainly went to a place that was not likely

0:04:00.080 --> 0:04:01.280
<v Speaker 5>original by.

0:04:01.200 --> 0:04:02.880
<v Speaker 3>The end of it, I mean, didn't it just turn

0:04:02.920 --> 0:04:03.720
<v Speaker 3>into like a.

0:04:03.720 --> 0:04:06.880
<v Speaker 4>Shot for like breast, every kind of breast fishy, and

0:04:06.920 --> 0:04:08.960
<v Speaker 4>someone would to have a shot, so it was kind

0:04:08.960 --> 0:04:11.000
<v Speaker 4>of evolved into something very different.

0:04:11.160 --> 0:04:13.880
<v Speaker 3>I feel like, I mean, this is a procedural drama

0:04:14.400 --> 0:04:15.600
<v Speaker 3>and it's on Channel.

0:04:15.440 --> 0:04:19.320
<v Speaker 4>Nine, but I feel like when I've watched it again recently,

0:04:19.600 --> 0:04:22.560
<v Speaker 4>and it's got all the makings of a procedural drama,

0:04:22.600 --> 0:04:25.800
<v Speaker 4>but I think it's a different sort of pace and performance. Personally,

0:04:25.880 --> 0:04:28.839
<v Speaker 4>I feel in retrospect when I watch it is a

0:04:28.839 --> 0:04:31.480
<v Speaker 4>little more reminiscent of your kind of UK.

0:04:32.080 --> 0:04:34.640
<v Speaker 3>Dramas and that, do you know what I mean?

0:04:34.760 --> 0:04:37.360
<v Speaker 4>Like, I don't feel like I definitely don't feel like

0:04:37.360 --> 0:04:40.480
<v Speaker 4>I've seen it on Channel nine, So I'm excited.

0:04:40.520 --> 0:04:43.320
<v Speaker 3>I'm excited to see how people embrace it or how

0:04:43.320 --> 0:04:43.839
<v Speaker 3>they feel.

0:04:44.600 --> 0:04:47.640
<v Speaker 1>How did you go about creating this character, because did

0:04:47.680 --> 0:04:50.000
<v Speaker 1>you borrow from some my kind of characters in the past,

0:04:50.120 --> 0:04:53.120
<v Speaker 1>or did you spend much time with real investigators? Because

0:04:53.320 --> 0:04:56.680
<v Speaker 1>you really carry this whole series, and you carry this

0:04:56.720 --> 0:05:00.279
<v Speaker 1>whole series with an unbelievable task of making all of

0:05:00.320 --> 0:05:04.440
<v Speaker 1>this high drama very believable, and you do it so effortlessly.

0:05:04.720 --> 0:05:06.760
<v Speaker 2>I was wondering how you created that.

0:05:07.200 --> 0:05:07.880
<v Speaker 3>Well, thank you.

0:05:08.160 --> 0:05:11.120
<v Speaker 4>First of all, it was a lot of work, a

0:05:11.160 --> 0:05:13.359
<v Speaker 4>lot more work than I've ever really done on a

0:05:13.760 --> 0:05:17.359
<v Speaker 4>show before. I did speak to spend some time with

0:05:17.400 --> 0:05:21.480
<v Speaker 4>a former Victoria Police homicide detective who helped.

0:05:21.560 --> 0:05:24.920
<v Speaker 3>You know, I'm sure things were accurate or with modern procedures.

0:05:24.960 --> 0:05:28.560
<v Speaker 6>But also I think because I knew that I had

0:05:28.600 --> 0:05:32.480
<v Speaker 6>such a huge workload or responsibility, and because I was

0:05:32.520 --> 0:05:36.320
<v Speaker 6>the leader, I kind of went with this attitude of making.

0:05:35.960 --> 0:05:39.359
<v Speaker 4>It as authentic as possible, and I guess, in turn

0:05:39.720 --> 0:05:43.719
<v Speaker 4>not just being me, because obviously you're following the narrative

0:05:43.760 --> 0:05:44.440
<v Speaker 4>of your character.

0:05:44.600 --> 0:05:47.560
<v Speaker 3>But I don't feel like I changed who I was

0:05:47.640 --> 0:05:48.159
<v Speaker 3>too much.

0:05:48.279 --> 0:05:51.080
<v Speaker 4>Like I think I just kind of embodied her through me,

0:05:51.400 --> 0:05:54.360
<v Speaker 4>which is what acting is anyway. But I didn't create

0:05:54.360 --> 0:05:58.440
<v Speaker 4>a funny walk but decide there was certainly certainly mannerisms as.

0:05:58.320 --> 0:06:01.560
<v Speaker 7>In holding the gun and all that stuff or procedure

0:06:01.600 --> 0:06:04.840
<v Speaker 7>that I really was probably what I was most nervous about.

0:06:05.080 --> 0:06:07.640
<v Speaker 4>But the other stuff I just tried to, like I said,

0:06:07.680 --> 0:06:11.239
<v Speaker 4>make it as authentic as possible, listen as much as possible.

0:06:11.120 --> 0:06:15.479
<v Speaker 3>And try and find out ways to, like you said,

0:06:15.520 --> 0:06:17.840
<v Speaker 3>like make it less like what.

0:06:17.760 --> 0:06:21.960
<v Speaker 4>I see on other cop shows or procedural dramas overseas,

0:06:22.000 --> 0:06:23.880
<v Speaker 4>which I suddenly feel like I'm just being kind of

0:06:23.960 --> 0:06:26.960
<v Speaker 4>narrated information, which you know, you can fall into that

0:06:27.000 --> 0:06:29.240
<v Speaker 4>track because there's so much to tell the audience.

0:06:29.520 --> 0:06:31.719
<v Speaker 3>So I feel like I just tried to pull that

0:06:31.839 --> 0:06:35.000
<v Speaker 3>back and make her as real as possible and hopefully

0:06:35.080 --> 0:06:38.400
<v Speaker 3>that works. Hopefully because I also there's sort.

0:06:38.160 --> 0:06:40.839
<v Speaker 4>Of stereotype of Okay, I'm going to play like the

0:06:40.960 --> 0:06:44.280
<v Speaker 4>lead detective and she's a woman in a man a's well,

0:06:44.400 --> 0:06:46.080
<v Speaker 4>she's got to like act tough.

0:06:45.880 --> 0:06:49.159
<v Speaker 3>And all and whatever those things mean. And I guess

0:06:49.600 --> 0:06:51.599
<v Speaker 3>my take is a.

0:06:51.400 --> 0:06:55.400
<v Speaker 4>Woman man like you're successful at your career, you know

0:06:55.480 --> 0:06:57.920
<v Speaker 4>what's going on, and you know you have to be

0:06:57.960 --> 0:07:00.200
<v Speaker 4>as clear as possible to everyone, and I think there

0:07:00.200 --> 0:07:03.400
<v Speaker 4>has to be a sort of sense of compassion and empathy,

0:07:03.440 --> 0:07:06.159
<v Speaker 4>which that's how I led her with, and that she's

0:07:06.200 --> 0:07:09.039
<v Speaker 4>always got an open and open mind listen. So it's

0:07:09.120 --> 0:07:13.120
<v Speaker 4>really important that I was always actively listening, which is

0:07:13.840 --> 0:07:17.800
<v Speaker 4>performing as well. I think sometimes people forget that that's

0:07:18.080 --> 0:07:21.559
<v Speaker 4>part of the performance, is that, yeah, your character can listen,

0:07:21.600 --> 0:07:24.040
<v Speaker 4>and when you're not saying something, you're still doing something.

0:07:24.320 --> 0:07:26.320
<v Speaker 3>That's a lot of what Holly's performance is.

0:07:26.360 --> 0:07:28.800
<v Speaker 1>I think it's interesting that you say that about the listening,

0:07:28.840 --> 0:07:30.880
<v Speaker 1>because if I look at John Edwards Dan and John

0:07:30.960 --> 0:07:33.760
<v Speaker 1>Edwards work in particular, and you look at their collection

0:07:33.840 --> 0:07:36.200
<v Speaker 1>of shows that they've made, I think a lot of

0:07:36.240 --> 0:07:39.840
<v Speaker 1>those really amazing female actors in those roles do a

0:07:39.840 --> 0:07:41.920
<v Speaker 1>lot of listening. Like you look at Claudia Carvin in

0:07:42.000 --> 0:07:44.520
<v Speaker 1>Secret Life of Us and Love My Way and Asha

0:07:44.640 --> 0:07:47.800
<v Speaker 1>Ketty Love My Way and even in Offspring and things

0:07:47.800 --> 0:07:51.120
<v Speaker 1>like that. The reason why those characters have worked and

0:07:51.160 --> 0:07:52.840
<v Speaker 1>still stand the test of time, you can tap in

0:07:52.880 --> 0:07:55.040
<v Speaker 1>and watch those shows today and still feel like they're

0:07:55.080 --> 0:07:58.840
<v Speaker 1>your friends, is because you watch those women interacting.

0:07:59.240 --> 0:08:00.760
<v Speaker 2>It's the list Yeah.

0:08:00.560 --> 0:08:01.520
<v Speaker 3>They're really engaged.

0:08:01.560 --> 0:08:05.880
<v Speaker 4>I mean you've just named two of Australia's best female

0:08:05.880 --> 0:08:07.920
<v Speaker 4>actors too, so they're.

0:08:07.680 --> 0:08:08.960
<v Speaker 3>Not your kind of run of the mill.

0:08:10.280 --> 0:08:12.760
<v Speaker 4>I mean they've become, you know, a high profile that

0:08:13.000 --> 0:08:15.600
<v Speaker 4>now and they can carry shows and get shows made.

0:08:15.640 --> 0:08:19.040
<v Speaker 4>But in their own right, they're just exceptional actresses.

0:08:19.120 --> 0:08:22.600
<v Speaker 5>So they're engaging, so they know how to respond, and

0:08:22.600 --> 0:08:23.680
<v Speaker 5>that's part of the performance.

0:08:23.720 --> 0:08:25.720
<v Speaker 4>You know, we don't just wait for our lines to

0:08:25.760 --> 0:08:27.520
<v Speaker 4>come and I think that's really important.

0:08:27.760 --> 0:08:29.600
<v Speaker 2>And Dan and I mean mentioning Dan and John.

0:08:29.720 --> 0:08:31.680
<v Speaker 1>It's you know, they're producing this show with you, and

0:08:31.720 --> 0:08:34.480
<v Speaker 1>they do such a fantastic job of making scripted dramas

0:08:34.720 --> 0:08:35.680
<v Speaker 1>feel very real.

0:08:35.720 --> 0:08:36.960
<v Speaker 2>I don't know how they do it.

0:08:36.880 --> 0:08:39.319
<v Speaker 1>Because you can pick up with watching their work without

0:08:39.360 --> 0:08:42.400
<v Speaker 1>anyone even telling you that you're watching and Edward's production.

0:08:42.760 --> 0:08:45.080
<v Speaker 2>What was your relationship with their previous work?

0:08:45.280 --> 0:08:46.400
<v Speaker 3>Oh well, all.

0:08:46.240 --> 0:08:50.520
<v Speaker 4>The shows you've mentioned have all been iconic shows. I

0:08:50.520 --> 0:08:53.360
<v Speaker 4>remember when Secret Life of Us first came on. I

0:08:53.679 --> 0:08:55.520
<v Speaker 4>was actually in a show called Love Is a.

0:08:55.520 --> 0:08:58.520
<v Speaker 6>Four Letter Word, and it was more like a really

0:08:58.679 --> 0:09:01.240
<v Speaker 6>indie street cheaper version of.

0:09:01.240 --> 0:09:03.360
<v Speaker 3>Secret Life of Us. And I remember they came on.

0:09:03.480 --> 0:09:06.080
<v Speaker 3>I was like, oh, that goes that goes that. Then like,

0:09:06.360 --> 0:09:07.720
<v Speaker 3>that's just an amazing show.

0:09:07.600 --> 0:09:09.880
<v Speaker 5>And then that just they just had the most the

0:09:09.880 --> 0:09:13.679
<v Speaker 5>most incredible people on it, like continually who to this

0:09:13.760 --> 0:09:16.959
<v Speaker 5>day have become some of the best actors we've got too.

0:09:17.080 --> 0:09:20.320
<v Speaker 3>So all both of those shows.

0:09:19.800 --> 0:09:23.920
<v Speaker 5>I think, yeah, I mean definitely those female leads were

0:09:24.120 --> 0:09:28.440
<v Speaker 5>very iconic and memorable in our television history.

0:09:28.480 --> 0:09:28.880
<v Speaker 3>For sure.

0:09:29.160 --> 0:09:31.280
<v Speaker 1>This show does make me feel as though that's you.

0:09:31.400 --> 0:09:33.760
<v Speaker 1>Now you're in this world that bubble that you can

0:09:33.800 --> 0:09:35.960
<v Speaker 1>actually I think people will have a lot of faith

0:09:36.120 --> 0:09:36.840
<v Speaker 1>in what it.

0:09:36.760 --> 0:09:37.959
<v Speaker 2>Is that you can do.

0:09:37.960 --> 0:09:40.160
<v Speaker 1>Do you think that this opens the door to make

0:09:40.240 --> 0:09:43.560
<v Speaker 1>more series of human error? Or do you want to

0:09:43.559 --> 0:09:46.440
<v Speaker 1>go and do other more scripted dramas, Like what has

0:09:46.800 --> 0:09:48.679
<v Speaker 1>this done to you as an actress?

0:09:49.080 --> 0:09:51.280
<v Speaker 3>I mean yes to all of the above. I'd love

0:09:51.320 --> 0:09:52.800
<v Speaker 3>to do another one.

0:09:52.880 --> 0:09:55.440
<v Speaker 4>I mean, the reality is, I'm forty four and this

0:09:55.520 --> 0:09:57.960
<v Speaker 4>is the first time I've been offered a lead in

0:09:58.000 --> 0:09:59.840
<v Speaker 4>a show like this, especially for Free to.

0:10:00.400 --> 0:10:02.640
<v Speaker 3>I've been part of ensembles, but I've never.

0:10:02.440 --> 0:10:06.559
<v Speaker 4>Been the kind of catalyst of a piece and that

0:10:06.720 --> 0:10:07.760
<v Speaker 4>workload and.

0:10:07.679 --> 0:10:11.160
<v Speaker 8>That dedication and what you have to do and the

0:10:11.160 --> 0:10:13.600
<v Speaker 8>way that you actually have to conduct yourself to as

0:10:13.640 --> 0:10:15.720
<v Speaker 8>a bit of a leader, and like because it paved

0:10:15.720 --> 0:10:18.240
<v Speaker 8>the way, Like whatever energy that you that you give

0:10:18.320 --> 0:10:21.199
<v Speaker 8>to set is really indicative of the shoot.

0:10:21.000 --> 0:10:23.960
<v Speaker 7>As well as everybody else's as well as everybody else.

0:10:23.840 --> 0:10:26.120
<v Speaker 3>Of course, because it's a collaboration.

0:10:26.480 --> 0:10:28.719
<v Speaker 4>But I'd never been on a shoot where I was

0:10:28.760 --> 0:10:31.920
<v Speaker 4>there every single day being able to usually as an actor,

0:10:31.960 --> 0:10:33.679
<v Speaker 4>to shoot your bit. And then you come in and

0:10:33.800 --> 0:10:35.840
<v Speaker 4>it's a bit fragmented, You're part of it. But you

0:10:35.920 --> 0:10:37.760
<v Speaker 4>come in with this sort of different energy because you've

0:10:37.800 --> 0:10:40.120
<v Speaker 4>had all these days off and you realize how much

0:10:40.120 --> 0:10:42.640
<v Speaker 4>people work. But until you're there every day, you don't

0:10:42.720 --> 0:10:44.600
<v Speaker 4>really realize how much the crew work.

0:10:44.800 --> 0:10:46.200
<v Speaker 3>And there's it's just a whole.

0:10:46.440 --> 0:10:48.680
<v Speaker 4>It was a really different feeling and it was super

0:10:49.160 --> 0:10:52.080
<v Speaker 4>interesting and I learned a lot from Also with a

0:10:52.080 --> 0:10:53.679
<v Speaker 4>show like this, you have a lot of kind of

0:10:53.720 --> 0:10:56.839
<v Speaker 4>guest parts and people who are very like really small

0:10:56.880 --> 0:11:01.400
<v Speaker 4>amounts to say, but man, the I was so grateful

0:11:01.600 --> 0:11:04.560
<v Speaker 4>when someone came on, no matter how small their role,

0:11:04.800 --> 0:11:05.760
<v Speaker 4>and they were good.

0:11:05.960 --> 0:11:08.080
<v Speaker 3>Because the better they are, the better I am.

0:11:08.200 --> 0:11:11.200
<v Speaker 4>And there was this new appreciation for there are no

0:11:11.280 --> 0:11:14.360
<v Speaker 4>small roles, which you kind of forget as you go along,

0:11:14.400 --> 0:11:17.080
<v Speaker 4>but there really aren't. And that was a huge like

0:11:17.160 --> 0:11:19.200
<v Speaker 4>a you know, not a learning because I knew that,

0:11:19.280 --> 0:11:21.640
<v Speaker 4>but just to remind myself of that that was really

0:11:21.640 --> 0:11:24.800
<v Speaker 4>good and just yeah, like I said, being there every

0:11:24.880 --> 0:11:28.080
<v Speaker 4>day with the crew and really understanding pretty much that

0:11:28.080 --> 0:11:31.720
<v Speaker 4>they're ninety percent of the show and just seeing how

0:11:32.480 --> 0:11:34.960
<v Speaker 4>and kind of being part of that was. It was

0:11:35.000 --> 0:11:37.640
<v Speaker 4>a lot of work, like I said, but really exciting

0:11:37.679 --> 0:11:39.319
<v Speaker 4>to me, and I really got off on that, and

0:11:39.360 --> 0:11:41.400
<v Speaker 4>I'd love to have that responsibility again.

0:11:41.480 --> 0:11:43.680
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure that's honest.

0:11:44.240 --> 0:11:46.160
<v Speaker 1>I really do think so, Ring your agent, I'm sure

0:11:46.160 --> 0:11:48.480
<v Speaker 1>that they get after people watch this. I swear this

0:11:48.600 --> 0:11:50.680
<v Speaker 1>is like it's just one of those iconic roles. I

0:11:50.679 --> 0:11:53.439
<v Speaker 1>think that happens to people, like a real U turn

0:11:53.760 --> 0:11:56.600
<v Speaker 1>to something else, Like I really just watched this and

0:11:56.800 --> 0:11:58.760
<v Speaker 1>was just thought, I just thought you were so compelling.

0:11:59.720 --> 0:12:03.120
<v Speaker 3>Thank I mean, I hope people watch. I don't really know.

0:12:03.720 --> 0:12:07.200
<v Speaker 3>I don't really know about ratings or like. Obviously, we

0:12:07.200 --> 0:12:08.600
<v Speaker 3>were supposed to show last year and.

0:12:08.559 --> 0:12:11.440
<v Speaker 4>It was and it got postponed just because there were

0:12:11.520 --> 0:12:14.720
<v Speaker 4>lots of different shows on and competing, you know, Seven

0:12:14.800 --> 0:12:17.520
<v Speaker 4>had soccer, and there was just so many different things happening.

0:12:17.520 --> 0:12:18.559
<v Speaker 3>So they postponed it so.

0:12:18.480 --> 0:12:20.480
<v Speaker 4>They could have not because if they didn't, they weren't

0:12:21.040 --> 0:12:23.200
<v Speaker 4>supporting it just because they wanted the best for it.

0:12:23.240 --> 0:12:24.559
<v Speaker 3>So it's on now.

0:12:24.960 --> 0:12:28.520
<v Speaker 4>But I definitely that's something that I don't really understand

0:12:28.679 --> 0:12:31.400
<v Speaker 4>ratings and viewers and all that sort of stuff. But

0:12:31.440 --> 0:12:34.000
<v Speaker 4>I guess it depends really on who's watching and who

0:12:34.080 --> 0:12:36.280
<v Speaker 4>watches nine and who's going to tune in.

0:12:36.480 --> 0:12:37.840
<v Speaker 1>Do you know whether or not they did you do

0:12:37.840 --> 0:12:40.600
<v Speaker 1>any research or did they spend time tightening it up?

0:12:40.679 --> 0:12:43.040
<v Speaker 1>Like because we had that extra year where we were

0:12:43.040 --> 0:12:44.480
<v Speaker 1>waiting for it, do you know if they were still

0:12:44.679 --> 0:12:47.400
<v Speaker 1>taking the time to tinker away at this very well

0:12:47.400 --> 0:12:50.160
<v Speaker 1>put yea, So the end product is just first class,

0:12:50.200 --> 0:12:52.600
<v Speaker 1>Like you could see this show up against anything on

0:12:52.800 --> 0:12:55.840
<v Speaker 1>HBO or anything internationally, and so I just feel like

0:12:56.000 --> 0:12:58.480
<v Speaker 1>a lot of work has gone into this and.

0:12:58.400 --> 0:13:01.280
<v Speaker 3>I'm so flattered. It's really nice to say that because

0:13:01.320 --> 0:13:03.040
<v Speaker 3>obviously no one else has seen it.

0:13:03.720 --> 0:13:06.520
<v Speaker 4>No, I think it was pretty much. I remember watching

0:13:06.840 --> 0:13:09.520
<v Speaker 4>the cuts last Unit's the same show we did do.

0:13:10.040 --> 0:13:12.280
<v Speaker 3>We did do pickups because they were really.

0:13:12.040 --> 0:13:15.800
<v Speaker 4>Invested, but that was, you know, a week or two

0:13:16.240 --> 0:13:18.480
<v Speaker 4>post finishing shooting, and that's pretty normal.

0:13:18.760 --> 0:13:21.440
<v Speaker 3>But no, I think what the finished product was the

0:13:21.440 --> 0:13:22.520
<v Speaker 3>finished product.

0:13:22.640 --> 0:13:26.080
<v Speaker 4>And apparently it's it's screened and sweetened, but I don't

0:13:26.080 --> 0:13:27.480
<v Speaker 4>really know if that's true or not.

0:13:27.559 --> 0:13:28.880
<v Speaker 3>I just had somebody write.

0:13:28.640 --> 0:13:31.719
<v Speaker 4>That on my Instagram and then I am dB said yes,

0:13:31.800 --> 0:13:33.240
<v Speaker 4>So who knows good?

0:13:33.240 --> 0:13:35.320
<v Speaker 1>Never trust I am dB. I have to let you go,

0:13:35.400 --> 0:13:37.880
<v Speaker 1>but I literally could talk to you all day. I

0:13:37.920 --> 0:13:40.280
<v Speaker 1>do finish the podcast every time with a question of

0:13:40.480 --> 0:13:42.720
<v Speaker 1>what is something from behind the scenes. You know, what

0:13:42.840 --> 0:13:44.520
<v Speaker 1>is something that we as an audience won't get a

0:13:44.600 --> 0:13:46.800
<v Speaker 1>chance to see, kind of from your experience of making

0:13:46.880 --> 0:13:50.040
<v Speaker 1>this show. Maybe a funny anecdote or something that something

0:13:50.080 --> 0:13:51.040
<v Speaker 1>crazy that happened.

0:13:51.440 --> 0:13:55.080
<v Speaker 3>I'm so bad at anecdotes. I just know, I'm like

0:13:55.160 --> 0:13:56.560
<v Speaker 3>the worst. I know that.

0:13:56.640 --> 0:13:59.160
<v Speaker 7>I looked around quite a few times, and you know,

0:13:59.160 --> 0:14:02.319
<v Speaker 7>everybody sees it productions and goes, oh wow, they must

0:14:02.360 --> 0:14:04.760
<v Speaker 7>have such a big budget, and there must be so

0:14:04.880 --> 0:14:07.800
<v Speaker 7>many people on it, and there are lots of people involved,

0:14:07.800 --> 0:14:08.440
<v Speaker 7>there really are.

0:14:08.480 --> 0:14:10.880
<v Speaker 4>But I remember looking around some days and they just

0:14:10.920 --> 0:14:13.400
<v Speaker 4>be like it felt like they were just thirty people there,

0:14:13.600 --> 0:14:15.920
<v Speaker 4>and it was just and it kind of always blew

0:14:15.960 --> 0:14:17.920
<v Speaker 4>my mind that we were making something that was going

0:14:18.000 --> 0:14:20.360
<v Speaker 4>to look immense compared to the amount of people that

0:14:20.440 --> 0:14:24.280
<v Speaker 4>were actually on set working their guts out to make

0:14:24.280 --> 0:14:28.200
<v Speaker 4>it happen. So and it's always, you know, it's always

0:14:28.240 --> 0:14:31.640
<v Speaker 4>a lot faster than people realized too. It's manic and

0:14:31.680 --> 0:14:34.520
<v Speaker 4>it's fast, and sometimes we don't have time to finish them,

0:14:34.520 --> 0:14:36.520
<v Speaker 4>so you just have one take and you just hope

0:14:36.560 --> 0:14:38.560
<v Speaker 4>that that works in the edits, you know, But.

0:14:39.240 --> 0:14:42.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I don't know. I'm not very good at stories.

0:14:42.760 --> 0:14:44.080
<v Speaker 2>No, no, that's I think that's great.

0:14:44.200 --> 0:14:46.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean, at the end of the day, I hope

0:14:46.000 --> 0:14:48.120
<v Speaker 1>people who are listening to us talking about it come

0:14:48.160 --> 0:14:51.120
<v Speaker 1>at this show with fresh eyes. It's a very lux production.

0:14:51.360 --> 0:14:55.440
<v Speaker 1>It looks amazing. It showcases Melbourne really well. Oh doesn't

0:14:55.440 --> 0:14:59.320
<v Speaker 1>it support it so good? Like it's just honestly, there's

0:14:59.520 --> 0:15:02.080
<v Speaker 1>so much that I could talk about with how this

0:15:02.200 --> 0:15:04.520
<v Speaker 1>show lands, and I can't wait for people to get

0:15:04.520 --> 0:15:05.560
<v Speaker 1>invested in it, in it.

0:15:05.760 --> 0:15:08.360
<v Speaker 4>Well, that's really really sweet of you, And hopefully next

0:15:08.400 --> 0:15:11.760
<v Speaker 4>time I see you at the LOGI so I'm not embarrassed.

0:15:11.320 --> 0:15:13.800
<v Speaker 1>I try a second time to be to approach you lighter.

0:15:13.920 --> 0:15:16.240
<v Speaker 1>Like the first time you turned up just behind my

0:15:16.320 --> 0:15:18.800
<v Speaker 1>table and I was like, oh, it's like it's in Oh,

0:15:18.920 --> 0:15:21.800
<v Speaker 1>it's you, Like I love you, and it was just

0:15:21.840 --> 0:15:23.720
<v Speaker 1>so funny. The look on your face was like, you know,

0:15:23.760 --> 0:15:25.960
<v Speaker 1>like an explosion gone off near you and you were like,

0:15:26.000 --> 0:15:28.160
<v Speaker 1>oh my god. And then the second time around, I

0:15:28.280 --> 0:15:31.520
<v Speaker 1>lightly approached you and I was like, and my partner's like,

0:15:31.640 --> 0:15:33.640
<v Speaker 1>maybe don't go and approach the talent and tell them

0:15:33.640 --> 0:15:35.680
<v Speaker 1>how obsessed you are with them, because I think they

0:15:35.720 --> 0:15:36.960
<v Speaker 1>don't think you're being genuine.

0:15:37.040 --> 0:15:38.120
<v Speaker 2>I think that's why.

0:15:38.480 --> 0:15:40.480
<v Speaker 3>No, I think you're being genuine.

0:15:40.520 --> 0:15:45.120
<v Speaker 4>I'm just completely I just have sometimes I'm ever socially

0:15:45.120 --> 0:15:46.400
<v Speaker 4>great or sometimes I'm just so.

0:15:46.400 --> 0:15:49.360
<v Speaker 9>Awkward, And I think in those that situation that is

0:15:49.840 --> 0:15:52.440
<v Speaker 9>there is a certain sort of excitement and terror that

0:15:52.560 --> 0:15:56.480
<v Speaker 9>comes with doing any of those carpets or especially the logis.

0:15:56.680 --> 0:15:58.720
<v Speaker 5>I've never been so overwhelmed on the carpet, And like

0:15:58.760 --> 0:16:00.680
<v Speaker 5>I said, sometimes with the interviews, I'm sitting.

0:16:00.480 --> 0:16:02.520
<v Speaker 3>Here at home now and I'm more relaxed. But I

0:16:02.600 --> 0:16:02.880
<v Speaker 3>mean the.

0:16:02.920 --> 0:16:05.640
<v Speaker 4>Last one I did, I think I went for Safe

0:16:05.680 --> 0:16:09.120
<v Speaker 4>Harbor this other show, and I just remember being with

0:16:09.320 --> 0:16:11.200
<v Speaker 4>one of the cast mates saying, can you please speak?

0:16:11.240 --> 0:16:13.080
<v Speaker 4>Every time we get asked this question because I have

0:16:13.160 --> 0:16:14.800
<v Speaker 4>no idea.

0:16:13.880 --> 0:16:16.960
<v Speaker 3>I don't even know what your name is right now.

0:16:17.680 --> 0:16:20.120
<v Speaker 2>I'm upset that's on me, not on you. But just

0:16:20.280 --> 0:16:20.760
<v Speaker 2>enjoy you know.

0:16:21.160 --> 0:16:23.360
<v Speaker 1>It's so funny because like being at home these days

0:16:23.360 --> 0:16:25.200
<v Speaker 1>and what COVID's done to us with how we can

0:16:25.240 --> 0:16:26.040
<v Speaker 1>be at our.

0:16:25.880 --> 0:16:27.480
<v Speaker 2>Homes where we get twins. He I mean, it's a

0:16:27.520 --> 0:16:27.960
<v Speaker 2>bit of an.

0:16:27.840 --> 0:16:30.520
<v Speaker 1>Invasion, but at the same time you can relax into it.

0:16:30.640 --> 0:16:32.800
<v Speaker 1>And I genuinely think the media is going to be

0:16:32.880 --> 0:16:35.520
<v Speaker 1>so excited to talk to you about this role, so

0:16:35.560 --> 0:16:36.240
<v Speaker 1>I think you're.

0:16:36.080 --> 0:16:36.640
<v Speaker 2>Just enjoyed it.

0:16:36.720 --> 0:16:38.640
<v Speaker 3>Thank you, Oh, thank you very much.

0:16:38.840 --> 0:16:39.400
<v Speaker 2>Take the question.

0:16:39.480 --> 0:16:41.479
<v Speaker 3>Is a very nice way to start the day.

0:16:41.160 --> 0:16:43.280
<v Speaker 1>Okay, I'll call you every day. I'm your hype girl.

0:16:43.440 --> 0:16:46.480
