The Big Breakfast Chat Transcript vom 16.4.2001

Chat Ed : David will be with us in just a minute everyone!

David Boreanaz : Hi everyone out there in computer land. Happy to be here, part of the chat.

Chat Ed : Hi David!

David Boreanaz : Hope everyone had a good Easter holiday.

Jemma : Hi David!!!

Mushroom : Why did you decide to spend Easter over in the UK?

Saffron : hello david!!

Jipsy Girl : Are you going to be appearing publicly anywhere else whilst you are in the UK, i.e. are you doing any more signings, etc?

David Boreanaz : Basically came over to do publicity for the TV show, and for the movie 'Valentine', also personal pleasure.

Susan arrowsmith : Did you enjoy being a bad baddie for a change, Angel is a good guy(most of the time)?

David Boreanaz : I enjoy both parts of his personality, because there is such a range to each one. There isn't a better one, they are both as good as each other.

Antonia : how do you deal with obsessive fans?? because, i find it so hard, y' know...........

Chat Ed grins

David Boreanaz : pass

kaz : Any funny stories from the set of Angel that you would like to share?

David Boreanaz : pass

Chat Ed : Oh cmon :)

loothi : hey David, i wanted to know if you get to keep your Angel clothes from the show(s)? They're ace - you look better in a black v-neck jumper than any man I've seen!

David Boreanaz : Thank you so much. Some clothes I do keep, but generally I don't because I just wouldn't wear something like that. His clothes are very dark, not something I would take home with me.

Deb Stone : Do you hang out with other cast members from Angel or Buffy?

David Boreanaz : No, I don't. There's really no one there. I'm very committed to my work and there is no one there I would socialise with afterwards, its not by choice, we just all have separate lives.

Fang : Are you really as bad a singer as Angel, or are you faking it?

David Boreanaz : I'm a pretty bad singer, I've got a very deep voice.I could sing if I wanted to but have never been trained. I don't sing, apart from in the shower.

Emily_GLR : David - when you filmed the Yoko Factor, was there any friction between you and Marc Blucas, as there was between you characters, Riley and Angel?

David Boreanaz : No not at all, that was just a tremendous time. He's a tremendous guy, we didn't have any problems on or off set.

Cat Williams : How do you feel about Angel's character getting darker now? Do you prefer Angel, Angelus or the 'new' evil Angel?

David Boreanaz : They're different. They're all different parts of his life and experience, it's really a level of commitment to where I want to take him.

KPNut : you seem to have a lot of on screen chemistry with all your leading ladies who has been your favourite leading lady to work with and why?

David Boreanaz : It's tough, I've only worked with a few. I hope to work with many in the future! You learn from each one, they're all wonderful in their own way.

andrea byrne : who would you prefer to kiss on screen, charisma Carpenter, sarah michelle gellar or julie benz?

David Boreanaz : Julie was pretty good.

B : Do you go on the internet in your free time and look at any of the fans websites!

David Boreanaz : No, i don't have a computer, I'm not into computers. I like to write letters.

Antonia : I heard you answer most of your fan mail personally, is that true? (now....where's that pen........?)

David Boreanaz : Yes I do. I can't read all of them but the ones I do, I try to reply to.

sara : how long does it take to have the vampire makeup put on you?

David Boreanaz : An hour and a half.

Morgiana : Do you read fan fic... and what do you think of it if you do?

David Boreanaz : pass

Rachel : David, as an actor - what would be your dream role and who would be your leading lady?

David Boreanaz : Dream leading lady would have been Betty Davis, I love older films but she's passed on. Probably Uma Thurman, Renee Zellweger. Dream role, anything history orientated or action adventure, depends on how I'm feeling.

rebelrachel : how much of the actual fighting on set do you actually do - or is it mostly a stunt double?

David Boreanaz : About 70%.

David Boreanaz : Random comment: beans and toast rock!

Jason : What projects have you got lined up in terms of movies in the future. There are A LOT of rumours stating you've been cast in 'Resident Evil'. The movie based on a the hugely successful video game

David Boreanaz : Resident Evil didn't work out because of my schedule, I turned the role down. The next movie I'm doing is called 'I'm with lucy', a romantic comedy.

vanessa : Are you fitter and healthier since taking the role of Angel...any bad habits?

David Boreanaz : pass

Angela_Coa : What episode of Angel has been the most difficult to shoot?

David Boreanaz : They're all very difficult, it seems every episode we start is a challenge.

BuffyAngel fanatic : Is Angel ever going to get back together with Buffy?

David Boreanaz : I don't think so. You never know, but I don't think so.

Becky : have you ever injured yourself while you were filming angel?

David Boreanaz : Yes, a couple of twists and turns on the knee. I always get cuts and bruises.

clarity74uk : what do you do in your free time and how do you unwind?

David Boreanaz : Sometimes I play golf. I do a lot of sleeping! Play with my dogs.

jayne watson : What do you like most about Britain, and are you single

David Boreanaz : The people, the culture, literary and tradition... and yes I'm single.

Mother_Hen : David, I have really enjoyed watching you grow as an actor over the last 5 years and am looking forward to your new movies - any update on how the prospective writers/actors strike will affect production of Angel?

David Boreanaz : If there is a strike it won't be happening. I guess they'll show reruns until we start up again.

Sally Taylor : Do you ever see something in a script you feel Angel wouldn't do or say, and speak out about it ?

David Boreanaz : Sometimes yeah. You just have to play out the character and see where the scene will take you.

Chat Ed : OK, David's got to leave us soon, so just 2 more questions:

2me : what was the funniest rumour you have heard about yourself?

David Boreanaz : pass

EMILY AND BARBARA : Do you prefer working on films or tv series?

David Boreanaz : I really like both of them, its all about the work for me. They're all pretty much the same, you have more time on a film as far as processes are concerned.

rebelrachel : are you signing autographs anytime soon- if so where?

David Boreanaz : No, not at the moment.

Chat Ed : OK, that's it folks!
