BOTH: “Elaine C. Smith!”
ALEX: “She’s the worst giggler in the world! When we’re filming so many times we crack up on set and have to reshoot. We go back a long way, Elaine and I, and always make each other laugh. If even a little thing goes wrong, I can’t look at her, because when I see that wee twitch at the corner of her mouth it sets me off!”
JONATHAN: “She pulls this face that makes her look about eight-years old — very like her grandchild actually! — and that sets me off. That and Alex carrying a tray of crockery, promising to be quiet. The slightest clink of China gets me going! If the hilarity gets too much we’re very quickly put back in place and reminded that we’ve got a schedule to keep!”
