  WOW, can't believe I'm second anyway, Hi Russell, My name is Koy and I just want to say that I am a massive fan and I don't know if you have checked your IMDB page before but, I am the one that posted you a Happy Birthday message on there, hope all is well in Tovey-Land and I hopefully (if my mum forks over the cash lol) coming to see you in ''A Miracle'' with some of my friends. Anyway, to the question:
  
  Do you like the science-fiction genre? And if so, what is/are your favourite/s television shows, films, books (please don't say Twilight lmao). Thanks so much and you are a ledge!!! XX Koy.

  You have to play a lot of different emotions as George - scared of his power as a werewolf, his falling-in-love with Nina, some brilliant comic moments with Annie - so, for you, which emotion(s) are the hardest to portray on screen, and why?

  I think someone else may have already asked this question on the other blog, but I wanted to know, as the only remaining actor of the three main characters from the pilot, how easy was it for you to strike up the relationship with the new Annie and Mitchell, and what do you think has changed from the original pilot in the way the characters interact.
  
  I haven't actually watched the pilot yet - am saving it for when the series end and I need my fix before the DVD comes out!
  
  Also, George is Jewish - how do you think that helps him deal with his affliction?
  
  Thanks - grand job!

  Further to my previous question -
  
  Do you feel like you have a chemistry whereby, if you do make a change, the others will instantly know where you're going with it and respond in a more natural way?
  
  Also (and I think someone may have already asked this) -
  
  Are there any similarities between the characters you portray and yourselves, or are you totally different? If you yourself could give George, Annie or Mitchell (or, indeed, any of the other characters) any advice, what would it be?

  Oh, sorry, also to any of the cast -
  
  Do you watch the series yourself or do you prefer not to see yourselves on screen?
  
  If you do watch, is it a surprise/joy to see the finished article (given that, even if you read the whole script, you may not watch the scenes as they are filmed etc)? And are you shouting at the screen/speechless/jaw on floor/biting nails/laughing out loud etc like us?

  You've mentioned in a few interviews that you'd like to play darker, less likable characters. Is there an existing villain in film or literature that has made you think, "If that ever gets remade or adapted, I'm definitely going up for it?"

  Questions for Russell:
  
  1. If you could change into any animal what would it be and why?
  
  2. Do you have any theories as to the origin of Nina's mysterious scars (on her tummy?) Do you think she's been involved with the Supernatural before (hence why she said Mitchell was "not her type anymore")?
  
  3. Would you like to do another series of Being Human and do you think it should run for longer than 6 episodes this time?
  
  4. (and just for fun:) Did you know that you have a double?! (my ex-husband. You and he look startingly alike, I did a double take when I first saw you on TV, lol!)

I love comedy and i think the comedy world cant afford to lose you - you just have the lot the facial expressions the body language the timing, the list goes on! anyway i really hope you do!

  Hello Russell,
  
  We know very little about George's background, or the life he had to leave behind.
  
  Did you create an imagined past for him in order to understand him better?
  
  I'd also like to know whether the completed show is different from what you imagined it would be like when you were filming?
  
  Thank you very much.

  Hey Russell- thanks for answering whichever questions you get asked, and also for being such an important part of the fantastically great series that is 'Being Human'! George is such a wonderfully sweet, hilarious character, and I think it's safe to say we all love him very much!
  
  Right then, question time...
  
  1) Would you describe yourself as an ardent sci-fi/fantasy fan...or not?
  
  2) What has been the most challenging job of your career so far?
  
  3) What will be your abiding memory of filming the first full series of 'Being Human'?
  
  4) Which character, out of George, Mitchell and Annie, would you personally get on with the best? Why?
  
  5) What would you like to see George achieve in Series Two? *fingers crossed* Do you think he'll ever move on from working at the hospital?
  
  6) This could be read two ways...does much corpsing go on between you, Aidan and Lenora? And how about the rest of the cast in general?
  
  7) And one more thing- I thought you were excellent in Little Dorrit, Doctor Who and The History Boys, Russell. You're a very talented actor- have you always wanted to act, or did you have other ambitions as a youngster?
  
  Thanks Barry- I take it this is all your design, Mr Online Editor!- for this brill opportunity, again!

  Russell,
  My friend and I were wondering whether you're always as quick as George to work yourself into hysterics, i.e. squealing a bit. (It's not a bad thing! We actually find it quite endearing and sort of hope the answer to our question is 'yes'!)
  
  Thank you for your time and your wonderful contribution to the show and we hope the sun's shining where you are. (If it's not, the sentiment of goodwill still stands. It's just less sunny.)
  
  Kind regards,

  Most of my questions that i posted before apply to all the cast so if Being Human production could just ask him them then that would be great.
  My brain's really not working today so I'm struggling to think of any more to ask him, especially ones that haven't already been asked, but i don't want to waste this opportunity so here it goes:
  
  Questions for Russell:
  Is there a question that interviewers have never asked you before that you want them to ask you and if so what is your answer to it?
  
  Okay that was just a cop out because i couldn't think of my own, but still might be interesting to hear your answer.
  
  Just thought of one, in your opinion, would George ever have children with Nina or would he be too scared he might accidently turn them into a werewolf?
  
  Also as said before any funny stories and anecdotes about filming and fellow cast would be much appreciated

  If you could write your own role for the second series (please let there be one) - what sort of exciting experiences would like to have in store for your character.
  
  Is there any scenes you would hate to do?
  
  If you could nick a prop from the set as a momento, what would you take?
  
  Do you have any geeky shameful secrets?
  
  And just to Russell - what did you honestly think of the orange shirt you tried on before your 'Not a date' with Nina?

  Hi Russell,
  
  I was wondering if you're regularly allowed to request changes or introduce ideas into an episode, or about your character and, if so, if you might share an example of that?
  
  -or-
  
  The supernatural conditions of Mitchell and Annie seem as though they partially parallel the real world issues of addiction and agoraphobia/self esteem. Do you see George's lycanthropy as symbolism in a similar manner?

  This post is on behalf of my friend KC who's having terrible trouble with the Being Human website:
  
  Hi Russell. You're just an amazing actor, going from strength to strength in every new thing I see you in! Keep up the great work, hunny!
  
  ** What drew you to wanting to work on "Being Human" and was George your first choice of character?
  
  ** Is there any other role that you would like to play if you weren't George?
  
  ** Russell, you were one of the original "History Boys" on both on stage and screen so given a choice, which do you prefer? Working live on stage or pre-recorded in TV and films?
  
  ** Are George's hilarious and terrifying range of squeaks, squeals and (particularly during the transformation) growls your own invention for the role or part of the script/direction? Are the sounds difficult for you to perform?
  
  ** Are there any actors, actresses or directors who you've not yet worked with that you'd really like to?
  
  ** To the entire cast: If any other supernatural beings were to make an appearance in "Being Human", would there be a particular one that you'd like to see?
  
  Huge thankyous to your good self, Aidan (sorry, I missed being able to ask you questions, Aidan) and Lenora for being so kind as to answer our questions! And thankyou to Barry for setting all this up, the site the blogs and this fantastic opportunity right here!

  2. when the werewolf was fully formed, was that you in a suit, someone else, puppet or CGI? (It looked like a puppet, epsecially as we never see the back section.)

  In the trailer for "Lesbian Vampire Killers" with James Corden, the last line mentions something about being "bummed by a big gay werewolf." Is this a wink and a nod to you or was this entirely coincidental?

  Do you really shriek like that in real life? I think that's the most entertaining part of the show :) It was probably the whole reason why the George was turned into a werewolf in the first place (funny prequel sequence comes to mind).

  My question is, do you feel that you have put any of ur own characteristics into George's part?
  I watched the pilot for the first time last nite, & i think that George is seriously underestimated. I think that he is definately the most dangerous of the characters, something that i'm sure we'll all see in episode 6!
  Keep up the good work; You are all brilliant!
  By the way; I think a whisk & phone charger are definately the ONLY weapons a super hero needs!

  Dear Russell.
  I can't stop wondering why George didn't feel able to tell his family and especially his fiance his secret? He is such a lovely guy they may of accepted him as he now found himself.
  I know in the prequel he had a chance to gain closure with his fiance but I see little similarity with George's character in that and the current series. He seems so much more empathic and introverted now.
  
  I love the warmth and humour you bring to George's character, Russell and I hope your writing is going well? Any luck getting a go of Alan Bennett's desk yet?

  would you rather be stuck in a spaceship with Dr Who, or stuck in a house in Bristol with Annie and Mitchell??
  good luck for the future to all of you, the cast and crew have made "being human" the best thing on telly since "Ashes to Ashes"! and you were in that too!

  Hiya Russell
  You seem to film a lot of scenes naked for being human. What was it like filming them? Did you mind?

  Hi Russell,
  
  Really loving Being Human!
  
  My question is:
  
  If George had the opportunity to not be a werewolf but could only become a vampire or a ghost instead - do you think he would do it?
  
  If yes, which would he choose?

  Russell,
  
  You've played a real variety of characters - have any of them influenced you in your portrayal of George in Being Human?
  
  I can't help but notice aspects of Rudge from the History Boys!
  
  Thank you so much, and good luck with The Miracle!!

  Hi Russell,
  
  I have loved watching 'being human' and thought you were amazing in it!
  
  I have a question for you which is... What has been the most challenging thing that you have had to do or experienced when working on 'Being Human'?
  
  Also, if you could write your own storyline for your character what would it be?
  
  Thanks and good luck with any new projects and work

  Hi Russell, I think you are an amazing actor and very versatile. I know that you will have the next series of being human to do in the near future but wondered what your long term plans were. Do you prefer comedy or drama. I think you have a great future ahead of you

  Hi Russell!
  
  How long does it take to put on all the makeup and prosthetics for the transformation scenes?
  
  Other than sit there and wait until it's done, how do you pass the time during this process?
  
  What music do you listen to (George obviously loathes Aqua)?

  Hey russell, i just thought of another question
  I was wondering, do you think there will be, and would you be willing to do, extended werewolf scenes like fights etc. or you running through the woods in series 2? Or maybe more scenes with you in your half transformed state with the yellow eyes and teeth?
  Thanks!!!

  Excellent performance in an excellent show. You seem to have the ability to take your part completely seriously - in a good way - which makes it truly moving. What part of your acting training was most useful to you in achieving this?

  I have never seen anyone act like you, you are amazing. I had seen you before in Little Dorrit and I thought the part you played was excellent but playing George was a whole different ball game.I am really looking forward to series 2 and I would love to know if you will be in any other productions in the future. I am known in my family as being a bit hard hearted but you brought out emotions in me I haven't felt in years. Thankyou for touching me with your unique ability. Love Irene

  The character of George is so lovable, gentle. (apart from when hes the wolf). Are you like George in any respect? Also should you be a comapnion in the next series of Dr Who if asked?
  Cheers for a fantastic series!
