00:00Listen, this one at least is accessorized color-wise, so it took ages for them to source the right one.
00:06I get it. That leads me to my first question. What is in your ME survival kit today?
00:12You're looking at it. I did not realize that this would be the most important thing,
00:16but it's wonderful that they've arranged to have a long sweat corridor before the photos.
00:22Fantastic. Can't wait to go to Getty.
00:25I'm thinking I'm ready like 20 minutes ago.
00:30But it is a big night for The Diplomat.
00:32How are you?
00:34Excited.
00:35Yeah, no, I'm so...
00:37Listen, I've heard people say this a thousand times.
00:40It's like, yeah, right.
00:41Hello, loves.
00:45That is Team Diplomat.
00:49That's Matthew, Rhys and Kerry Russell behind the camera.
00:54Heckling.
00:56It's lovely. What an honor to be heckled.
01:00By such fantastic talents.
01:02No, my feeling is to be, you know, it's my first time nominated in the leading category on this show,
01:07at all, you know.
01:08And in the category I'm in with the actors, you know, I'm just getting my head around that.
01:14I have no more expectations. This is enough for me.
01:16But also, I'm very happy for the show.
01:19I would love Kerry to get it.
01:20I'd love everyone to get it.
01:21But I'd love Kerry to get it.
01:22I'd love Matthew to get it.
01:23Different show.
01:23But, like, that would be great.
01:26Anything or below that, I'm happy.
01:28You know what I mean?
01:29I mean, you're a veteran in this industry.
01:31Was winning an Emmy one day ever one of your goals?
01:34No, I try not to think of things like that as goals.
01:39I'm not, you know, downing it.
01:41If I was to get one, I'll change my mind completely.
01:43I go, this is my goal.
01:43But actually, some of my best work, or some people's best work, is not necessarily the work that gets the
01:49award.
01:49Anyone who gets an award tonight absolutely deserves it.
01:52But it's good not to set your standards on those kind of accolades.
01:57You know?
01:58We know season four.
01:59We don't want one, but, you know.
02:02So do the fans.
02:03Season four, almost here.
02:05What can you tell us?
02:07It's insane.
02:08I think this is a show that has suddenly...
02:11I loved it from day one.
02:12And everything that's in the show, the DNA of it was there from day one.
02:15But as they've had the freedom of popularity, and, you know, they've expanded it,
02:21and it's got more intense...
02:23I mean, Alison's now permanent, and, you know, Brad Whitford.
02:28And season four is even more.
02:31And I think it's going to be fantastic.
02:33I don't always say that.
02:34You know what I mean?
02:35But we believe.
02:36Yeah.
02:37Yeah, yeah.
02:37Well, last question.
02:39What would you say the television industry is at its best when?
02:43I think it's, like the film industry, it's at its best when it gives new people chances.
02:49You know, when it takes risks.
02:51Um, that's what I think.
02:53Do you know what I mean?
02:53And it doesn't try to repeat formulas.
02:56You know what I mean?
02:57But that's why I'm not an executive.
03:01Maybe one day.
03:03We might need...
03:05No.
03:05Nothing personal, executives.
03:09Do you know what I mean?
03:10No.
03:10No.
03:10No.
03:10Yeah. I
03:14mean, it's all right.
03:14You
