00:00Do you know, I kind of, I don't know that I immediately knew who Eda was on the page initially, because it was just one script in the opening, the opening script.
00:12I mean, her kind of natural anxiety, you know, the show that start the scene that starts the show where they're in the car and they're going back to Italy.
00:23And her anxiety and, you know, her fears, like that's who I am as a mother.
00:30I mean, I'm just like driven by my fears of something going wrong.
00:36So I felt like that gave me, you know, a route in and a handle on her.
00:42But really it was, I had this Zoom that I did at the very beginning where I sort of met the programme makers and KJ, the show creator.
00:56And but Amanda was on the Zoom as well, because, you know, as one of the exec producers.
01:01And it was really how she talked about her mother, you know, and, you know, despite the fact that she was the one who was incarcerated for all those years, she maintained that how much worse it was for her mother.
01:18You know, she got very emotional talking about it.
01:20And and that, coupled with the fact that I'm, you know, my youngest is 17, my oldest is 21, I kind of felt like, you know, I kind of understood the emotions behind that relationship entirely.
01:38Entirely, you know, how they were with each other and and and, you know, how that that sense of you'll you'll do anything to protect and fight for your loved ones.
01:53That's all. I kind of have that like for free in me, you know, so see, it was kind of a mixture of a few things.
02:01And then, you know, I researched and went online and looked for any any kind of interviews or anything where I felt like I could sort of get to know her a little more.
02:13And then, of course, I met her, you know, in real life, I met her mum and she's just a regular, ordinary, lovely lady, you know, who this terrible thing, but like somehow coped, you know, and came out the other side.
