“It is a testament to the fact that we just got to a point where we were so comfortable together.”

“We could support each other in whatever way we needed on set, and also just have a laugh about it. I’m really glad we got to share it together. It was like having a really close friend as you’re going through something that’s maybe quite daunting.”

“You made me feel really taken care of,” “not short.”

“It’s also a really important part of the story,” “Like those scenes in this show are important. They are an important part of the narrative. They are not throwaways.”
