Syfy hosted a Digital Press Tour back in October where reporters were given insight on\"\"<\/a> programing both old and new. One of the shows we were introduced to was Lost Girl a new acquisition that has already gained a following around the world. The panel consisted of Mark Stern, the President of Original Programing for Syfy, Anna Silk who plays Bo and Zoie Palmer who plays Bo\u2019s friend Lauren.<\/p>\n

“Lost Girl” stars supernatural seductress Bo (played by Anna Silk, “The Ghost Whisperer”), a Succubus (a powerful female entity in folklore) who feeds off sexual energy. Raised by human parents, Bo had no reason to believe she was anything other than the girl next door — until she “drained” her first boyfriend to death.<\/p>\n

Bo has since hit the road alone and afraid. She discovers she is one of the Fae, creatures of legend and folklore, who pass as humans while feeding off them in secret, as they have for millennia. She is faced with choosing an allegiance between the Dark or Light Fae clans. Bo decides to take the middle path between humans and the Fae while embarking on a personal mission to unlock the secrets of her origin, protecting humans along the way.<\/p>\n

“Lost Girl” co-stars Kris Holden-Ried as Dyson, a shape-shifting Fae, homicide detective and Bo\u2019s love interest; Ksenia Solo as Kenzi, Bo\u2019s human confidante and street-smart survivor, Zoie Palmer as Lauren, a human doctor who competes for Bo\u2019s heart; Rick Howland as Trick, the mysterious owner and bartender at The Dal Riata tavern, with a secretive past that is yet to be unlocked, and K.C. Collins as Hale, a handsome male \u201cSiren\u201d who is the eternal bachelor, ultimate wingman and Dyson\u2019s partner on the force.<\/p>\n

Here is the transcript:<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: Okay. Let’s begin. Welcome back from lunch. We
\nare in that home stretch. Like, don’t lose me in the 3:00 lull
\nhere. Let’s just keep pushing forward. I’ve got all of these
\nnew sound effects that I got at lunch. I realize I totally,
\nlike, screwed myself because there are some really great ones
\nthat I didn’t know about because there are 140 in here. And I
\nwas like, I’m an idiot because if I, like — and now, of course,
\nI can’t find it. Oh, like this one for Christmas — the
\nChristmas episodes.<\/p>\n

(Telephone app plays sounds of jingling.)<\/p>\n

Shall I go back? I know. I was like, “Dangit.” All right.
\nThere’s lots more in here. So let’s begin. Next panel, “Lost
\nGirl,” we are really excited about “Lost Girl.” This was — by
\nMay, we were very excited to acquire this series. We’ve got two\"\"<\/a>
\nseasons of it, 26 episodes. I think Anna and Zoie will talk
\nabout the fact that they are actually shooting some additional
\nones as well, but this really — I have to say, the production
\nvalue of this show — and some of you may be familiar with it.
\nIt’s obviously been out there for a while — really blew me away.
\nI was unfamiliar with this. I just started watching it and got
\ntotally hooked in. It is really quite amazing what they pull off
\nevery week. And believe me. I know how hard that can be. And I
\nhave news. Hold on.<\/p>\n

QUESTION: Did you save a lot of money on your car insurance by
\nswitching to Geico?<\/p>\n

(Laughter.)<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: Ooh, that wasn’t me. Let’s just do this one.<\/p>\n

(Telephone app makes a buzzing sound.)<\/p>\n

“Lost Girl” is going to premier on Monday, January 16th, at
\n10 p.m., right after “Being Human” at 9. So Powerful Mondays are
\nback, starting with “Being Human” and then segueing right into
\n“Lost Girl.” We think it’s going to give us a block of really
\ninteresting, edgy programming that we are very excited about. So
\nI think, without further ado, what I’d like to do is actually
\nbring up the stars of the show. And they can actually talk a
\nlittle bit more about what the show is, and then we’ve got a
\nreally cool clip to show you. So please welcome Anna Silk and
\nZoie Palmer.<\/p>\n

(Applause.)<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Hi.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: Hi. How are you?<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Good. How are you?<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: Good.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Hello.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: Welcome.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Thank you.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: They have you holding your — they have you holding
\nyour —<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Yeah, you’ve got it.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>MARK STERN: Nothing but fanciness here. “Welcome to the Syfy
\nChannel. Hold your Mike.” So we have a clip that we wanted to
\nshow, but I thought it’s better for you guys to tell us a little
\nbit about what the series is about —<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: — and how it works and —<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Okay. Well, “Lost Girl” follows the story of Bo,
\nwhich is the character that I play, and Bo grew up thinking that
\nshe was human and like your every girl. And when she became a
\nteenager, she had, you know, urges, sexual urges that went beyond
\nnormal teenage urges.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: Go on.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: She discovers at the beginning of the series, in
\nSeason 1, that she’s not human, that she’s actually a succubus
\nand part of a whole Fae underworld that live and feed among
\nhumans. So, you know, the adventure unfolds from there.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: I can sissue (ph)?<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yes, exactly. And Bo gets to learn about — in one\"\"<\/a>
\nsense, it was a great relief for her to find out that — you
\nknow, what she is, but at the same time, it opened the door to a
\nlot of questions. And those questions get answered and
\nchallenged and answered and challenged throughout the season.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: Wow.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: I couldn’t have said it better myself. Let’s watch
\na quick clip, actually.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Okay.<\/p>\n

(Clip shown.)<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: A very special Christmas episode.<\/p>\n

(Laughter.)<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: It’s certainly a Romicon feel.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Certainly a Romicon feel.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: That clip stresses me out.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: First of all, I’ve got to say, like, amazing, —
\nright? — the amount of just technical, like, expertise in that.
\nHow — let’s just talk about that scene for a second because I
\nwas watching that going “Wow.”<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: I mean, was it —<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: It makes may heart race actually watching it because
\nshe was really strong. But it was really — I mean, it was an
\namazing sequence to shoot, and, you know, she was this incredibly
\ntalented stunt woman, but it was challenging.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: Yeah?<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: And so give us a little bit of your character, and
\nwhat do you do in this show?<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: I play Dr. Lauren Lewis, and what’s interesting a
\nlittle bit about her is that she’s one of the few humans that
\nwork directly with the Fae. And I work — in the beginning, Bo
\nand Lauren meet up, and there’s a few sparks perhaps maybe. And
\n\"\"<\/a>we have a bit of a triangle with another character on the show,
\nDyson played by Kris Holden-Ried. And I sort of help Bo control
\nthe urges scientifically. So she comes for periodic injections
\nand the like. And, yeah, so Lauren sort of — and she works for
\nthe Fae, and you never, sort of, learn — well, the season sort
\nof opens with you are not sure why she’s working for the Fae and
\nwhy there’s a human doctor and not a Fae doctor, and so that’s
\nwhere the story sort of unravels, and the season does, too.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: It’s a really interesting character because you
\ndefinitely want someone like that in this kind of show because
\nit’s like, as a viewer, it’s like, “What the hell is going on?”<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah, yeah, yeah.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: There’s a lot of questions around that character
\nand why she’s there and why she’s so indebted to that group, the
\nlive Fae.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: Yeah.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Yeah.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: But I think it seems like — and I think this show
\nvery nicely is able to get through a lot of that expositional how
\nit works, all of the different types of Fae —<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Uh-huh.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: — in a very organic way.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: Do you find that —<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: I think Bo has all of those questions. You know, she
\njust learned that she’s not human, that she’s a succubus and
\nabout the Fae and that they exist, you know. So that sort of —
\nthose questions are asked by her and by the audience as well.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Yeah. You guys sort of have the same questions —<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: — the audience and Bo.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Yeah.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: That’s always nice. Trust me.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Yeah.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: And something else I’ll say about the show, too,
\nbecause Zoie just brought up the light Fae is that the other
\nthing that Bo learns is the Fae are divided amongst light and
\ndark, and what that sets up in our show is this very interesting
\npolitical system and divide. And that creates a lot of conflict
\non the show and is just a really — another really interesting
\nthing about “Lost Girl.”<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: Yeah.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: That’s absolutely right. Especially the second
\nseason, it really does seem to kind of take off in that way.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yes.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: How did you get involved in the show?<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Well, I live — I’m Canadian, and I lived in Toronto
\nfor quite a few years. That’s where our show shoots. And I live
\nin Los Angeles now, and I — the script came my way, and I saw,
\nyou know, females, sex sci-fi babe. I thought —<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: She came running.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Right. I came running. I said, “That’s for me.” I
\nthink I actually came into the process a little late in the game.
\nAnd, you know, I loved what I read because, you know, Bo, she’s a
\nsexual creature. She’s a sexual being. So right away I thought,
\n“Okay. What’s going on here? What is this about?” But it
\nwas — what I loved is that it’s Bo’s greatest sense of shame
\ngrows into her greatest strength. And that’s something that
\nappealed to me, and I think as a — you know, I think it appeals
\nto young women watching the show. Our audience is so broad. I
\nmean, we are in our second season in Canada. We are airing in
\nthe U.K. and Australia, and the people I meet that watch the show
\nare such a broad audience, you know. We have different
\ngenerations, and all different kinds of people are really drawn
\nto our show.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Shy girls, young girls.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: It really seems to have hit, you know, a good, big
\ngroup.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: It’s been lovely for us.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: Yeah.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: But that’s what drew me to the show was a strong
\nfemale lead who — and female character who is scared a lot of
\nthe time but can’t be.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: Right.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: She has to figure it out, and she does.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: That’s great.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Not always, but for the most part, she does.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: And, also, you get a little sense of — I mean,
\nthere’s nothing like the “fried bitch” line, but you also do get
\na sense that there’s a certain tongue-and-cheek quality with
\nLauren, too.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Oh, yeah.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: It doesn’t take itself too seriously.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Yeah. There’s great, great humor in this show. I
\nthink that’s one of my favorite things about the show is that
\nthey have — along with some really intense moments, there’s tons
\nof fun and lots of — sort of — you know, it’s witty. And I
\nthink all of the female characters on the show are really
\ninteresting written. Kenzi played by the very talented Ksenia
\nSolo, who can be —<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Who was the “fried bitch” line.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Yeah.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: Yeah.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: She’s fantastic on the show. Like, what a great
\ncharacter, you know.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: Yeah, yeah.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: She has a good time playing that character.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: You can tell. I mean, it is. She gets all of the
\ngreat lines.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Well — but she does them — no one else can do
\nthem better. She does a great job.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: Yeah. We had some experience with that with Claudia
\non our show. Allison Scagliotti on “Warehouse” is the same way.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: Like, she just has that zinger that you wish you had
\nsaid. So are you — and you are now doing nine more episodes,
\nright? You have additional episodes you are shooting?<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: We did. We left the back nine. So we are actually
\ncurrently filming Episode 15 of Season 2, and we started airing
\nSeason 2 in Canada as well.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Right. So we are airing a shooting.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah. We are airing a shooting.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: That’s right.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: That never happens, not often to us.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: No.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: But it’s great.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: Are you on that zone? It’s funny because I was with
\nColin yesterday, and he said there’s a point at which you
\nsuddenly start to get recognized, and people” — you realize —
\nlike, something happens. You reach a threshold where people
\nstart to just stop you in the street. Are you at that point now?<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah. And it’s great because people want to come up
\nand tell you why they love the show. They don’t just say, “Are
\nyou that girl?” They say, like, “Oh, my mom watches the show,
\nand this is why she loves it,” or “My brother watches it.” It’s
\ncool.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: That’s great.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: It’s funny, those moments, though, because it never
\noccurs to me anyway that that’s why someone might be looking at
\nme, and so I always have to go, “What? Oh, right, sorry.”<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: “What do you want?”<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Yes.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: That’s great. Well, wait until it airs on Syfy.
\nThen that a whole other level.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: We are totally thrilled.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: Then you in, like — then you are in that little
\ntram in the airport in Orlando and people are stopping you in the
\ntram. I was like, “Oh, my God.” He’s like, “I know.” Right? I
\nwas like, “I’m glad that’s not me.”<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: As long as they don’t expect a succubus kiss, I’m
\nokay.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: I will inject people, though.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah, she will. She will.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: Okay. And with that, let’s open to questions.<\/p>\n

QUESTION: Okay. My question is actually from your fans on
\nTwitter. Do you expect Bo-Lauren relationship to be as popular
\nas it was — as it is, rather?<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: Did you guys hear that? Did you — do you expect
\nthe —<\/p>\n

QUESTION: Lauren and Bo — thank you. Did you expect the
\nLauren-Bo relationship to be as popular as it is with the fans?<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: I certainly didn’t, no. That came as a bit of a
\nsurprise, yeah. It’s been a great surprise, too, like, what a —
\nbut no. That blew up a little bit, didn’t it?<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah. I mean, for Zoie and I, it was really
\nimportant — and we talked about it in the beginning — that this
\nrelationship be very real. This was a very, you know — Bo is
\ninvolved in a love triangle in the show, and we wanted this
\nrelationship to be a truthful relationship between these two
\nwomen. I mean —<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: And to stand up against —<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: — if one is not — yeah, exactly. It has a rival,
\nthe other love relationship, and it certainly does. And the fan
\nresponse has been —<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Yeah.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: — amazing.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Yeah.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah.<\/p>\n

QUESTION: Two quick ones. One is with the action, the
\nsupernatural humor, do you think the show, in a sense, fills a
\nvoid that’s been there since “Buffy” went off the air, “Buffy,
\nThe Vampire Slayer,” went off the air?<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: It certainly comes up, like, as a comparison for
\nsure.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: So I think perhaps for some people it might.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: And I think the humor — it’s funny because, on the
\nweekend, I was watching reruns of “Buffy” all afternoon. But I
\nthink that the humor that existed on “Buffy” and the — how much
\nthe characters, the central characters cared about each other,
\nthat exists on “Lost Girl,” too. I mean, these people and
\nnonpeople really care for each other, and I think that that seems
\nto be the biggest comparison, I think, that we get. So it’s
\nflattering.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Oh, it’s a huge compliment, I think, yeah, if
\npeople feel that way, for sure.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah.<\/p>\n

QUESTION: You said in the airport people stop you and tell you
\nwhat they think of the show. What do they think of the show?
\nWhat are they telling you?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>ANNA SILK: Oh, gosh. People love the sort of political system,
\nlike I talked about a little bit, that exists. They love to kind
\nof get angry at one side or the other. You know, a lot of
\nyounger women love to see a character whose sexuality is a big
\npart of who she is but is really strong and empowered by that.
\nSo, I mean, people talk about that a lot. People love Kenzi’s
\none-liners, you know.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Uh-huh.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: It’s really mixed. I have to be honest. It’s
\nreally, really mixed. There’s not something really specific.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: It’s a pretty passionate audience, too.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: They have very specific opinions on how they feel,
\nwhere the story line should go and the characters should be
\ndeveloped in.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah. They have taken ownership.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Yeah, which is great. Yeah.<\/p>\n

QUESTION: I’ve got one from Twitter as well here. We haven’t
\nheard much about the Faye human aspect of Bo and Lauren’s
\nrelationship since Season 1. How do you think these dynamic
\nfactors affect the relationship itself and your portrayal of it?<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: The Fae human-specific relationship?<\/p>\n

QUESTION: Yes.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Well, it was really addressed in the first season,
\nand it’s a complicated relationship for that reason, for many
\nreasons, but that being the primary one.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Yeah, because of Lauren being injured —<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: — originally by —<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: I mean, Bo drains people to death, is what she can
\ndo, which is not something she necessarily wants to do.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Not necessarily.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Not necessarily. Sometimes. But I don’t know. I
\ndon’t know really how to answer that.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Well, he kind of got — I mean, because Lauren is
\nthe scientist and the whole — part of their whole dynamic, the
\nbeginning of it, is that she comes to Lauren for help, and
\nbecause Bo’s character hasn’t picked a side, that’s a little
\nawkward because Lauren works for specifically the light Faye. So
\nI do begin to kind of help her out a little bit, and because I
\ndo, she becomes less of a worry that way.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah. I mean, Bo is so grateful. Someone that can
\nactually help her control these urges, like, this is a new thing
\nfor her. So the way that it sort of plays out in Season 1, I
\nmean, I don’t know — they kind of dealt with that, I think, the
\nFae human aspect of it.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: They do in the first season.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: And it’s not really addressed again, I don’t think.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah. It’s not really addressed on a continuous
\nbasis.<\/p>\n

QUESTION: I had a question from Facebook, from one of the
\nFacebook followers, who wants to know how do you prepare yourself
\nto be a succubus? What kind of research do you go through, or do
\nyou?<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Well —<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Do you really want to talk about what you did?<\/p>\n

QUESTION: Yes, we do.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: I can’t talk about it. No. You know, in terms of<\/p>\n

\"Anna<\/a>

Luckiest guy in the room<\/p><\/div>\n

research, it’s the human side of Bo that is really sort of the
\nheart of who she is. A succubus is who and what she is as well.
\nIn terms of getting ready to play it, I actually knew what a
\nsuccubus was. And some people asked me that question, too, like,
\n“Did you even know that that was?” And I did because I used to
\nhave these recurring nightmares and had read about the
\nincubus\/succubus phenomenon. And so, in terms of playing that, I
\nthink you play the human side, if that makes any sense. In terms
\nof the succubus, you know, the first episode that we had where I
\nhad to do a succubus kiss, that guy got a lot of kissing and air
\ntime because we really had to figure out what that kiss was going
\nto look like, what draining someone’s chee (ph) meant and how
\nthat would play out. And we sort of came up with something that
\nwould then be the standard for the succubus kiss on the show.
\nNow I’ve got it down.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Oh, yeah.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: This is what it is. This is what you do. But in
\nterms of playing a succubus, I think that you played it human
\nside.<\/p>\n

QUESTION: Okay. Thanks.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: That’s quite a day that guy had.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah. He had — yeah. He had a lot of lip time.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: A lot of people have quite the day.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: We have time for one more question.<\/p>\n

QUESTION: So we’ve seen ghosts on TV. We’ve seen vampires,
\nwerewolves. And this is fairly new, a succubus. So what is it
\nabout these supernatural, paranormal creatures that connect with
\naudiences and make something like “Lost Girl” popular? Why do
\nyou think that there is a need for it?<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Well, I think it lends itself to the world of play
\nthat we all still sort of, — you know, the part of ourselves
\nthat likes to fantasize about, sort of, craziness and chaos and
\nall of that. You know, it’s a whole different world that you can
\nreally lose yourself in. And so I don’t know if it would be
\nspecifically for everyone, but I feel like that’s probably part
\nof the draw of being able to kind of imagine yourself in that
\nworld that’s nothing like the one we live in.<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: Yeah.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Do you agree?<\/p>\n

ANNA SILK: And I think that, you know, that supernatural world
\nthat Zoie is talking about, what appeals to the audience, too, is
\nthe central relationships between the characters. Like I said,
\nthey really care about each other. They’re real relationships.
\nIt’s real friendships. It’s real heartbreak. It’s real hurt.
\nAnd then I just happen to fight a headless guy with a sword. And
\nthat’s kind of part of our day, and we have to deal with that
\nworld as well. And I think that it’s such an imaginative and
\nbroad world, which is really cool.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Uh-huh.<\/p>\n

MARK STERN: Excellent. Okay. Well, thank you. They are going
\nto be down here at the side of the stage for 10 minutes to sort
\nof chat with you further, but thank you so much for being here.<\/p>\n

ZOIE PALMER: Yeah.<\/p>\n
