Hope nobody minds me posting this. It's quite long, but I think it's worth the bandwidth. Teri was in the studio. I must have missed any mail saying she still had filming to do over here in the UK. I thought she'd finished with the Bond movie. It's a cute little interview. Teri seemed quite relaxed, particularly towards the end. You'll see why from the transcript. Unfortunately Teri also confirms what we know about the show and season 5...It's looking pretty much definitive guys :( Anything inside < > is a description or comment from me. MP = Male presenter FP= Female presenter TH= Teri Teri is wearing a short dark beige sleeveless dress with a pale pink rose print. ****************************************************************** MP:Welcome back with a very special guest this morning...Only one Hollywood star who knows how to pick up her leading man is Teri Hatcher. First as Lois Lane it was Superman, now she's setting her sights on James Bond. Not only that, but last week- look at that fabulous photograph (pic of Teri in the red sheet)- she was voted the sexiest woman in the world by the readers of FOR HIM Magazine and if all that wasn't *enough* -Teri is here now, Goodmorning Teri-... TH: Good Morning MP: Now you're set to become a Mommy TH: Yeah...Yeah... MP: Congratulations, times about 5 there I think. How are you feeling? TH: Good.For about 4 months.Through all..Didn't have morning sickness, through all the tiredness.So just feeling good now.I think I'm just starting to feel it move which is *amazing*. MP:Extremely exciting, now you're over *here for the Bond movie which must be really exciting too... TH: It is, really fun.It's a great crew. You know, I've never worked on a movie before like this where it's so family oriented. There are actually people on the crew who are second generation, third generation Bond, you know, people...electricians, whose fathers were Bond electricians, it's quite a family organisation. MP: There you are with Mr Bond himself. TH: Oh yes...Isn't he handsome? FP: Mmmmm MP: Well yeah, if you go for looks, talent and personality...Yes... TH: Well, if you go for that he's o.k. MP: If you go for that... yes . What's your character like in the movie? TH: I play Jonathan Price's wife, who is the villain- he's the villain in the film- and I've also had this great love affair relationship with Bond in the past, so when we run across each other it's apparent that there's an emotional history there and I sort of mean something to him, and then I sort of help the plot along and you know I become like...I help the good guy and help the bad guy. MP: And you were fine during all the filming? Cos it doesn't show a tiny bit, does it Fee ? FP: It absolutely *doesn't*. You're as slim as a reed.There's not even a tiny little bump there. TH: Thank-you...I can just say that this area has gotten a lot larger but I guess that's not, I guess that's not bad for a Bond film. No we...I have two days left, luckily. We've finished most of it.It just, sort of, all worked out. There was no special planning that went on or anything, it just... the timing all worked out. MP:What a great time to have a fabulous cleavage, when you're in a Bond movie... TH:Yeah, exactly, it was for the dress MP: Mother Nature has been very kind to you Teri. The fabulous photograph we showed at the beginning, I've got a copy of it here from FOR HIM magazine. This is the picture that they published in their issue which gave you the title 'most sexy woman in the world'.I mean, how does a girl like you react to that? TH: It's so funny... MP: You think so? TH: I think it is. I mean it's flattering.I guess, somebody said there's only two blondes in the top ten, and I thought... Sorry... FP: Don't worry,I'm not blonde underneath TH: And I thought that was good for brunettes.And...Um..Gillian Anderson won last year, and I think she represents a really intelligent, smart, sort of character, the way Lois Lane is, and I'm happy that *that's* what's being considered sexy and... FP: She was very similar reaction to you actually...In that she was quite embarrased by it. TH: Yeah... FP: She was on quite recently with us and we asked her what it was like being constantly voted sexiest woman, and, as I say, her reaction was so similar to yours. TH: Well there's such a difference, usually, I find, in Hollywood between the image that's being presented in the press and who the person really is. And also Gillian is a mother and we're both in our early thirties and all of those things are good for women... that *that's* what's being considered sexy and I'm proud of that. MP:You talked there about the way things come across in the press about tv people and the way it is in real life.Superman, TNAOS as we call it here, is what you're extremely popular over here ,we hear all these stories and, it's happened about our own show,about the stars falling out that you and Dean who plays Clark Kent/Superman had fallen out. What's the story there? TH: Oh we just *hate* each other . No, you know, there is *no* story. There's never been a story.Initially, in the States we have those tabloids too, the story was we were having an affair, and then it was we hated each other, you know, all this, all the facts...nothing legitimate at all, but you know, what can you do? People print the things, you can't really fight about it.But no,he's great. We've always had a good working relationship and in a way it's almost like a marriage, we spent so much time together. MP: I think you can tell that when you look at the show, let's take a look at a clip... MP: And Lois is the only girl who knows when he takes his glasses off he's a whole different person.Is it good fun doing that? It looks like it... TH: Yeah it *was*.I mean, I say *was* 'cause it's finished now. MP: That is the news, official? It's now finished? TH: Yeah... FP: Which leads me on to...We have had lots of phone calls from viewers. One lady says will we ask you if you have plans to do another series? TH: Another tv series or another year of Superman? FP: Superman, I think she means... TH: Oh...umm...Well... No...They cancelled it in the States. Warner Brothers did.So... That's sort of how it works. MP: Oh well, it was good while it lasted... TH: Yeah... MP: Real life hubby, are you missing him? TH:**Desperately** we were on the phone until 2.30 am last night.I just, I can't...I think it's something to do with the pregnancy, you have this great nesting urge. I just, I'd nothing to say,but we were on the phone for two hours. I was saying: "So where are you in the house?" He was like: "I'm in the kitchen", I'm like: "Are you having coffee?". You know... 2.30 in the morning and that's what I'm doing.But I miss him... MP: Aww...Well listen Teri why don't you have a look at that monitor there, we have a bit of a surprise for you... Cut to clip of Jon Tenney in a tux, not live... JT: Well, I just have to send a special wish to my wife who's far away in London and say...I love you and I love the giblet that's on the way MP/FP: Awww TH: Oh my God! I'm gonna cry... That's so funny, the giblet thing I have to explain... TH: I know... MP: Stop Teri, I'm off FP:Give me one too! TH: We originally thought that it was, the baby was due at Thanksgiving, but it's actually due earlier than that but when we thought it was going to be Thanksgiving, first we were thinking pumpkin pie...You guys don't have Thanksgiving but we have like turkeys and things and so we started calling it the giblet, so that's where it came from. MP: That's where the name came from... TH: Yeah.That was *very* nice. That's the nicest thing anyone in Britain has done for me! MP: Well we planned that surprise for you, 'cause you're not just the sexiest woman, but the nicest and the funniest and the fairest and we want to wish you all the very best... TH: Thank-you very much... MP: with the giblet, whatever flavour you have, boy giblet or girl giblet, and enjoy your year as sexiest woman in the world, 'cause it'll go on forever... TH: 'Cause next year it will be the galaxy ...Yeah right... MP: Then the universe TH: Yeah...the universe FP: Great to see you, thanks a lot...Still to come < aside while FP is speaking> MP: And good luck with the Bond. FP:They're still talking these two, shall I do this and you can carry on there... MP:We'll just have a quiet sob here TH: Yeah ***************************************************************** Well hope you enjoyed that. I'm off to start what I was supposed to be working on today Don't you just love procrastination? If anyone wants a screen capture or clip from the interview let me know. The interview was about 5 mins, so I can't do the whole thing but maybe a couple of clips...
