Roni: “First of all, tell us from last season until now what’s happened, catch us up!”

Bridget: ” Season 2 picks up right where we left off and the crazy thing is when we finished season 1, we felt like it was over we felt like we had won because there was a prophecy that Richard, the part that Craig plays, was going to kill this evil guy Dark and Rile, who’s been ruling the midlands, this world we live in as a crazy leader. And we defeated him, we killed him, well he killed him, I just kind of helped. He combined all these forms of magic and when he did that this kind of explosion happened and when he did that we learned that there was this tear that separates the world of the living and the world of the dead. So now there’s these creatures that we’ve never seen and people that we’ve killed that are coming back to get us and it’s a bit of chaos. So now we’re out to defeat the Keeper, who is Mr. Baddy number one and we have some help Zeddicus Zu’l Zorander, and Cara the Mord-sith that was in the season finale of season 1, which will be airing in the 2 hour event, and we’re back to right some wrong.”

Roni: “Tell us what we’ll see during the season premiere, and all of the different characters we’re going to meet, and the people that are returning from season 1.”

Craig: “We saw Cara for the first time in the finale of season 1 and she is back in season 2. She proves to be a valuable asset to me, so I can use her in certain ways.”

Bridget: “And I’m not convinced, I think she’s trouble, but we also has a wonderful actress Charisma Carpenter who plays a high ranking Mord-sith in the first episode of season 2 as well. You might know her from Buffy. We have some really great guests this year, we have Jolene Blalock coming up, she was in Star Trek, and a lot of great actors. Amy T Garden from Friday Night Lights, Gabriel Men from Mad Men, and just a lot. They’ve really stepped up their game, we’ve had some really great guests to come out and play with us, and of course a lot of local talent from New Zealand and Australia.”

When prompted to describe his co-star Bridget in three words, Horner did not hesitate. “Effervescent. Sassy. And just fun – plain fun!” he said.

When asked which three words she might use to describe him, he speculated, “Strange. Disobedient. And……I occasionally go walkabout, so what’s a word for that? Where you just kind of wander off…..?”

“There’s ‘restless’,” I suggested. “Or ‘adventurous’…….”

“I like adventurous,” he responded. “That’s better than restless!”

In speaking with Bridget a few days later, she painted a wildly different portrait of Horner than he imagined she would.

“Three words for Craig Horner?” she said. “I would have to say…..driven. Smiley. And…..gosh, I want to pick a good one……..open. Emotionally open.”

“You’re going to laugh, but when we had our first kiss, in the eighth episode or something like that, and both of the characters gave in for a moment……there was all this talk around it – this kiss has got to be epic, and……I happened to watch Brokeback Mountain the week before. And I was on set, and I found myself saying, “You know what? It’s so Brokeback Mountain!” People kept looking at me like, “Are you kidding?”
