[On the nude scenes in Rome]
Polly Walker: When I read the script, my eyes got wider and wider. Although I never considered not taking the part because I didn't find it offensive. The guys that I was doing th scenes with were so brave and such a laugh. At one point, I was sat on to of Lee Boardman who played Timon, going, "Please, for God's sakes, make sure you cover my [expletive]!" He went, "Don't worry about your [expletive], cover my [expletive]! (edit) [On when she got the part on Rome]
Polly Walker: When I found out that I got the part, I laid in a fetal position for a week. I definitely felt nervous. The biggest challenge for me during the first season was to make her sympathetic, but I purposely did not worry about that too much because I felt that she is having a hard time and is up against huge obstacles. (edit) [On her character from Rome]
Polly Walker: This is that part that men get offered all the time. Women, most of the time, are confined to playing girlfriends and wives. This part was so out there. I wanted to go for it. (edit) [On her character from Rome]
Polly Walker: I do find the Roman period fascinating, but I am not buying books on the period for research purposes. Basically I go with the script because I am trying to play her as a woman who has contemporary feelings, as if what is happening to her is happening now. (edit) [On her character from Rome]
Polly Walker: She's a very sort of untypical kind of female, that you would imagine Roman women to be like, who were normally sort of kind of restrained as that was a sign of huge femininity to be like statues really. But, she's very forceful and she know what she wants. (edit)
