D.B Woodside who plays the new principal of Sunnydale High, Robin Wood, is having great fun in his new role.

The actor, who recently discovered that his new role in season seven would be expanded beyond a planned ten episode run, had nothing but praise for the show's star.

"I love working with Sarah," he enthused to E!Online. "She is absolutely crazy. She's a nut. And her sense of humour is just amazing. I like to say she's like a little tiny Minnie Mouse on speed."

Despite pressure to reveal all about his character's future, Woodside remained tight-lipped. "I actually do know, but I can't tell you. All I can say is I think it is going to be something the die-hard Buffy fans will really appreciate, really like. It's going to be an incredible ride."
