- Born to a Greek father and an English mother, and grew up in Australia.
- In my workplace, there's a lot of bottom-slapping, but that's just the industry that we're in. We're actors, I think you need to feel out a situation.
- Of course, straight away I said, 'Absolutely'. It's such a common cancer within women and men, so I wanted to tackle it and I thought it was an important issue. Afterwards, the team decided to plot it and write the story from there.
- I love my job and I'm very honoured. I pinch myself every day over how lucky I am to have full-time work, with a fabulous crew and cast and a great character who's always fun to play.
- On paper they're very well-suited towards each other, but I think Terese has always been reluctant. There's no denying that they're madly in love with each other, but I don't think Terese would ever commit to Paul because she's just terrified that he will break her heart - or he'll be the death of her.
- I honestly do hope so! When I signed up, I thought: 'Oh gosh, I could only do a year'. But that was mostly because I was based with my family in Sydney and it was the thought of moving down to Melbourne.
