00:00So, I don't recognise you with the new hair. Do blondes have more fun?
00:05Do you know what? Do blondes have more fun? I'm actually currently not having more fun.
00:10Because I'm doing really long days and I'll have a lot of deadlines.
00:14But I'm giving the illusion of someone who has a hedonistic fun life and that's all that matters.
00:19Yes.
00:20I'm having more fun tonight though, I'll tell you that.
00:22Do people ask you about your hair on Juice? Or, I mean, is that a talking point?
00:27Yes, my haircut in Juice has been a really, for some reason, controversial topic.
00:32The queer community have really let me down, actually.
00:37One of the comments online was,
00:40I don't believe this gay relationship because no gay man could love someone with that haircut.
00:46But I just want the audience to know that, like, I've taken on the feedback.
00:52I mean, the bowl cut is staying. It's staying.
00:56But I will be doing something about the hate comments in series two. Watch this space.
01:01Series two? Are we hearing this here first or is it already out there?
01:05I think we announced it at the BAFTAs this year.
01:08Okay.
01:09So I'm sadly no.
01:10Okay.
01:12Yeah, I can give you an exclusive.
01:14Okay.
01:15I've handed in draft three of episode four today. How about that?
01:19Yes! Are you over the BAFTAs yet? Like, how do you come down to earth after that?
01:23No, I know. The BAFTAs was amazing.
01:26Do you know what? Like, you've got to remember that awards and stuff is just a byproduct of the job.
01:32You would do your job regardless.
01:34I gave my all, all that I have, and I'd like to think I'd do that anyway.
01:38But it's such a nice cherry on top when you can walk into a room like that and people are like,
01:42Yeah, mate. Well done. You did something right.
01:44So great.
01:45The same here, you know.
01:46But this one's even warmer because it feels like a hug from, you know, within the community.
01:50Yeah.
01:51And that's always nice.
