00:00I caught up with Lara Croft model Alison Carroll recently during the Dubai leg of her world

00:10tour to promote the new Tomb Raider game Underworld. Here's what she had to say about the forthcoming

00:14release and her quest at becoming the legendary Lara.

00:18Tomb Raider Underworld is the game I'm promoting and it's coming out really soon, on November

00:2721st and the gamers out there are in for a real treat because there's so much more challenge

00:34and choice within the game and you get to explore these spectacular environments that

00:40you've never seen before and you really feel that you're part of Lara's adventure. My agent

00:45put me up for the role, I was the only gymnast on the books, so I went along to the audition

00:51dressed up in my own version of the Lara Croft outfit and I performed all my stunts,

00:57my rolls, my backflips, my somersaults, but there was just so many people there and I

01:01just thought, you know, I haven't got a hope. But then I got a recall, so I went along to

01:07the recall and performed all of my stunts again but this time in the real outfit and

01:13yeah, I got the job. It's just my dream job, I get to act, I get to do my gymnastics, I

01:19get to do live performances and I get to travel the globe. Underworld hits shelves

01:24on November 21st and with Lara's increased capabilities and greater levels of interactivity,

01:29gamers have a great deal to look forward to. Ashley Hammond, Four Man Magazine.
