Does it 21 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:52,080 Speaker 2: annoy you when people like Jonesy say I can act. 22 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:56,320 Speaker 1: No, because I reckon he'd be able to do that. Well, look, 23 00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:59,800 Speaker 1: I think enthusiasm and passion will get you part of 24 00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 1: the there and once they say action, it's very clear 25 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:06,920 Speaker 1: what's happening. So you know you get sorted out pretty quickly. 26 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:09,480 Speaker 2: Well also, jonesy as I was saying, wants to come 27 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:13,119 Speaker 2: in at the top end and have a really interesting storyline. Yeah, 28 00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:16,360 Speaker 2: how many years have you been acting before Home and Away? 29 00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:18,160 Speaker 2: What are your credentials? You just didn't come in and 30 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 2: go give it to me. 31 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:21,160 Speaker 1: No, I did a lot of theater actually, so I'm 32 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:24,480 Speaker 1: theater based. And then I started getting jobs in like 33 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,640 Speaker 1: Barlow and Chambers with Hugo Eaving and like it was 34 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:29,280 Speaker 1: is a mini series. It was the era of mini 35 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 1: series when I started, So that was the ideal. But 36 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 1: then I got a country practice and then I still Shire, 37 00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:37,600 Speaker 1: and then I did Yeah, and then I did Around 38 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,400 Speaker 1: over the Hill with Bruce Benson, you know, and then 39 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:42,680 Speaker 1: I did All Saints, and then I, yes, I've done 40 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,319 Speaker 1: I've done a lot of work. And that's what happens 41 00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 1: when you you know, you're in your late fifties. You've 42 00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 1: looked back and you go, oh my god, it keeps 43 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 1: stretching the bio. 44 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 2: But how amazing that you're still at the top of 45 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 2: your game. 46 00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 1: I look, I'm very fortunate. I feel lucky. I do. 47 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 1: But also I say yes to work. That's also another 48 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 1: and it's not easy schedule. 49 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 2: Can you give Jonesy a realistic rundown of what his 50 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:08,679 Speaker 2: because he likes to go to stand up paddle boarding 51 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:09,360 Speaker 2: in the middle of the day. 52 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 3: What's your daylight? 53 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 1: Doesn't that sound good? Well? I mean if you play 54 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:14,160 Speaker 1: cards right, you know, you could come on as a 55 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:16,240 Speaker 1: stand up paddle border and do most of your dialogue 56 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 1: from the water. Some of the. 57 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 2: Snortings suggested that you should be a drunk flasher, which 58 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 2: I thought was in that character. 59 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 1: Oh, that will be a big storyline. 60 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 5: People have been suggesting roles, and I just think that 61 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:27,359 Speaker 5: they're beat. 62 00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 2: One was a sleazy, crazy real estate agent. 63 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 3: A lot of people have been suggesting things. But don't 64 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 3: you do. 65 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 4: What did you suggest that I play? 66 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:38,640 Speaker 3: You do long days. 67 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 1: Though, yes, yeah, we do, like I mean, like you 68 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 1: do early days, so that takes it out of you 69 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 1: in a different way. We can start at like four 70 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 1: thirty and go to eight at night. 71 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 4: Wow, the afternoon, that's pretty recent. 72 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 1: Here, eight pm, eight pm. So the days can be 73 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 1: fourteen to fifteen hours. And if you get that every 74 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,520 Speaker 1: day for five days, it it's like some kind of 75 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 1: fresh hell. But other times you get like two three 76 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 1: days off in the week. So there's no consistency to it. 77 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 1: So but you come very reliant on your schedule. It 78 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 1: becomes your bible because you have to plan some kind 79 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 1: of private life around it. Yeah. 80 00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 4: And the character you play, Rue, I've followed because originally 81 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:19,960 Speaker 4: played by Justine.
