But. WB and Betsy Pickle of The Knoxville News came through in fine style with backup tapes/files, so all is not lost and we will eventually upload sound. WB has also sent a Jason Isaacs roundtable interview, which is absolutely packed with wit, insight and humor, and I will transcribe it as soon as I can (as soon as I figure out how to add 24 hours to the day). I have, however, transcribed this one bit, because it is a piece of pure genius which makes me love Mr. Isaacs forever. I think it will make you all love him too.
"I went off and read the books after the audition and I read all four books in one sitting - you know - didn't wash, didn't eat, drove around with them on the steering wheel like a lunatic. I suddenly understood why my friends, who I'd thought where slightly backward, had been so addicted to these children's books. They're like crack."
We know. Oh, do we know. And I think I speak for all the TLC editors and every reader of this site when I say: thank you, Mr. Malfoy.
