Subject: [Marsters_Sanctuary] A bit more Torchwood info

Whedonopolis interviewed Chris Chibnall, a writer for Torchwood and he had some excellent things to say about James (apologies if this has been sent to the list already. I was just so excited to hear JM's doing a British accent again, I lost my head :) -

W: Now, you’re currently in production with season 2.

CC: Yes. I wonder what possibly could be the next question? (laughs)

W displays a bag with a bunch of buttons of James Marsters as Spike

NC: Who’s that guy? I have no idea.

CC: Never seen him in my life.

NC: Do you recognize him? I don’t.

CC: He looks kind of familiar. (laughter all around)

W: We’ve seen the BBC press release.

CC: How much am I going to tell you?

W: Does James Marsters speak with a British accent?

CC: Oh! You’re going to get an exclusive on that, aren’t you? Yes, he does.

W: Yes!

NC: That is an exclusive.

CC: That is an exclusive. Nobody’s asked us that. I don’t think that’s a spoiler. His British accent is brilliant! I’ve seen the rushes. I’ve seen the filming. I’ve seen an early assembly of the stuff. He is brilliant. He is so fantastic in this show. I can not even begin to say. Of course he is, ‘cause he’s a brilliant actor but he fits the show and he takes the character by the scruff of the neck. He’s playing a character who is a match for Captain Jack and it’s just wonderful to see, I have to say.

W: Is there any chance his character will come back in the future?

CC: I don’t know. I’m not going to tell you how the story ends, am I?

W: No! We’re just wondering ‘cause it’s your universe. You can do whatever you want.

CC: Yes! Ha, ha, ha, ha… I can’t really, I don’t know at this stage.
