Love Scott xxx Thanks Scott and g'day!!! That's a really hard question! I guess probably my work in theatre with the Melbourne theatre company has to be up there: playing Masha in Checkhov's 'Three Sisters', Beatrice in Goldoni's 'The Servant of Two Masters, (Where I got to dress up in dashing male clothes. and have a swordfight!) and Catherine in 'The Heiress' are most memorable for me. As for television, I loved playing Rev Rosie, but would have liked more interesting storylines! and working on Bellbird with Alan Hopgood was great fun too. _______________________________________________________________________________ Hi Maggie, Am I right in thinking you appeared in the show The Sullivans? Sue, Dublin. You're absolutely right Sue; I played Elizabeth Bradly, who was going to marry Dave at one stage, after dear Grace was blown up; in the blitz! Cheers, Maggie X _______________________________________________________________________________ Did you have any input into how the character of Marie Winter was portrayed? You must be very proud of that fact that although you only did 3 short stints 'inside' - you are still one of the best loved and most memorable characters in its 8 year run! Also, what are you memories of working with the wonderful Sheila Florance? Lots of love Andrew XX I had no input as far as the writing of the character - only rarely do actors have such input. The portrayal was entirely my own - as I saw her from the material I had to work with. I guess the fact that she made quite an impact shows that I did a reasonably good job!! Sheila was certainly a memorable character. She was full-on all the time, and woe betide anyone who got on the wrong side of her. The day after the episode in which Marie heavied Lizzie I din't dare go out!! Lizzie was a hugly popular character, and I knew her fans would not be happy!! _______________________________________________________________________________ Hey there maggie what i'd like to know is how did the producers decide who got to go on the opening credits of Prisoner? and more importantly why didnt they put you on them? I think they should of put you on, your Character was definately my favourite and i'd of loved to have seen marie winters mugshot. Love Paul P.s i think youre paintings are amazing. Thanks Paul; I don't know how the producers made those decisions, and it's all SO long ago now! I do remember having a 'mugshot' done at some stage- heaven only knows what happened to it!! And thanks too for you kind words about my paintings; i intend to do more of the prisoner cast, and have already recieved my first commission; I'm thrilled about that! _______________________________________________________________________________ Hi Maggie, We last saw Marie in 1984 escaping by helicopter, Were you ever asked to reprise the role again in the latter years of the show? Stephen, Glasgow No I wasn't; I'd gone into "The Sullivans" not long after that I think, and then 'Prisoner' finished. (I'm a bit vague about all this - it's just SO long ago!). Cheers, Maggie _______________________________________________________________________________ Hi maggie, I would like to know what your best time was in Prisoner, and also do you ever see any of the cast these days? Jason The best times for me are always when I'm working with really good actors on a good scene; I had some great material with Janet Andrewartha (Reb) Louise LeNay (Sandy) Olivia Hamnet (Kate) and Maggie Kirkpatrick (the Freak) to name a few. It was a fantastic bunch of women and we all got on well, despite the long hours and hard work. I don't see the cast now, as I live in the country, although when I worked in Neighbours, I saw a couple of them again. I will be working with Margot Knight again later this year (she played Ferguson's girl-friend - can't remember the character's name.) Margot will again be producing and acting in the play we did last year "If I Should Die Before I Wake"; we are doing a three week tour of Country Victoria. (See more info on the website) |
