great interview, it really makes me look forward to season 2 even more. i remember seing jamie bamber in the Horatio Hornblower movies (what can i say i LOVED those movies i wish they would make some more) and thinking to myself "wow this guy is really good i wonder if ill see him again" and then it wasnt until like the third episode i made the connection and realized it was Archie! he really is a phenomenal actor and does an amazong job on the show.

[CKO]

yey... interview with my hottie on the show.... great interview...

is it july 15th yet.

[David]

Excellent job, Maddi!! What a terrific treat.

[keshou]

You know I've only seen one of those Hornblower movies and I didn't realize Jamie played Archie either. Now I'm going to have to go get all of those and watch them. Oh the pain.

Good interview - I'm looking forward to S2 of BSG SO MUCH.

And talk about on-the-spot reporting. I assume this is from Madeleine who's attending Collectormania this weekend?

[CKO]

havent seen the Hornblower movies. but maybe i'll have to rent some of them sometime.

love your newest sig David

[TameFarrar]

EXCELLENT interview Mads!!! Jamie sounds like he is really enjoying his role as Apollo ...and I am sure you definitely enjoyed having those few minutes of Jamie all to yourself

I am already excited about S2 and this just really adds to it

[Madeleine]

Glad people like it

[Liebestraume]

Madeleine, thank you so much for sharing! I read the interview but didn't make the connection that GW = Madeleine_W till I came into this thread. D'uh!

You asked terrific questions, and I liked Bamber's answered as well. There is just enough info to whet the appetite for S2 without spoiling it (or I wouldn't be able to resist the temptation ).

Hope you enjoyed the con. Stuff in the Starbuck thread also indicates it was a lot of fun.

It's just too bad he didn't let slip the giant secret of the show...

[Mr. Seven]

Yeah this was a good interview. I rememebr reading it back during the break and fearing that Apollo wouldn't be liked by anyone anymore.

I was pleasantly surprised to see that everyone still liked him on BSG, save Tigh. His pilots were all behind him anyway it seemed.

God I hate Apollo!

[somedude]

I'd like to know what his weight lifting workout schedule is like- which ones does he do?

[spg_1983]

God I hate Apollo!

Any specific reasons or just an irrational hate?

[titans]

Any specific reasons or just an irrational hate?

I just find him whiney. "Boo Hoo...I have no reason to live" Boo Hoo...I miss my ex so now I'm shacking up with hookers" Boo Hoo my daddy's mean to me" He's a girl!

Plus if he had been paying attention to to flying instead of looking at his handywork behind him he wouldn't have wrecked the blackbird!!

So on top of being a girl, he's a crappy pilot!!

Thank god he didn't havesex with Starbuck...she woulda broken him in two!!
