It was very short notice actually. I went in the day before they started shooting Braca. I think there was some change of cast, because I went in and talked to a director the day before, and then I was on the set the next day.

I thought it was for a show called Fire Escape. I imagined I’d look pretty good in a fireman’s helmet. Turned out it was for a show called Farscape. I learnt that pretty quickly. I catch on.

How much did you know about the show before joining it?

I knew nothing. Less than nothing. And of course, Farscape is this whole new universe, they’ve created this entire world. So I went in with less than 24 hours notice, and had to very quickly adapt and pretend I knew what I was talking about. It was so, so, bizarre.

There was this whole world and terminology that I had to do a crash course in. I had no idea what an arn was, what a microt was, what a vector 6-something was. For the first couple of weeks, I was not at my most relaxed. It’s not the sort of dialogue [that’s easy to learn]. And the terms! It’s not colloquial dialogue. So it kept me on my toes.
