I was going to make a separate thread for each of the four interviews, but I think we can continue on in one without any difficulty. The first interview we uploaded is a short one, strictly Mandana, speaking with a tosser bloke by the name of Mark Gillman. No, I shouldn't call him names. But he was a bit dense, wasn't he? Not only did some of his questions make me do this: , but some of her answers obviously went right over his head. His question about whether she was happy to get into the topic about lesbianism. Well, Mark, she had done it for 3 years at that point and had never shied away from openly talking about the role and its importance not only to her but to the gay community. [paraphrased]: Have you roughed anyone up because you forgot you were acting? And the bit about the prison food! "Are you eating real prison food?" Interesting to hear Mandana's sly double entendre about some of the cast members doing "the full... they swallow" totally flew right past him. And, of course, the piece de resistance at the end, where he can't quite make the distinction between Mandana the actor and Nikki the character. (I'd go so far to say that he couldn't make the distinction throughout the entire interview!) Too bad that interview wasn't in studio together and video taped! I would love to have seen her face!

Yes it did - despite her dirty laugh as well. Can't decide whether she was laughing at her own comment or his completely not getting it. I think this guy was the DJ on the night of the big Monsoon fan event which, I suspect, is why she did the interview.
Thank you for posting this.

Just finished the last and final audio. Enjoyed the interviews and the accompanying slide shows. Thanx CB and RM for posting it. Also special thanx to Larkhall Librarian. It's politically incorrect to say Persian instead of Iranian? I had no idea.
