Ned & Chuck in the Media: Finally after several weeks, I found a fresh interview of Anna Friel and Lee Pace, courtesy of USA Today. The pair talked about how they get along in real life, their take on what it is like to kiss through plastic, the physical limitations between the characters, their sentiments about the strike or the fact that the show will end in a cliffhanger because of it…and of course, pies. Here’s an excerpt:
Q: What do you know about baking pies?
Pace: I’ve learned more than I ever thought I would about pies.
Friel: He can’t believe that in England we have fish pie.
Pace: They will make a pie out of anything.
Friel: You know why, though, Lee, because pies were invented for miners. When you were a miner, it was a pastry that kept it in a casing so the food wouldn’t get dirty.
Pace: Coal pie.
Friel: Yeah, coal pie. I’ll bring you some of that when I go to England.
Pace: Pies are very hard to make. I’m still on graham-cracker crust, filling it with whipped cream and Butterfingers. It’s very hard, but it’s not as difficult as touching something back to life.
