Last weeks edition of Radio Times had an interview with Jorja Fox. The interview was typed up by a friend as I only found out she was in it today and therefore couldn't get hold of a copy.

 

 

Q

CSI-Crime Scene Investagtion is the top-rated drama in the US, but

there are two spin-offs now. Does it annoy you that CSI-Miami and now

CSI-NY are sponging off your ratings?

J's A

Well, they say it's a great form of flattery, right? i think in the

begining we were all quite afriad. Our show in the States had barely

got on its legs and already we were going to have competition from

the inside. So it was kind of terrifying and maybe not entirely

welcomed by the cast. The good thing that's come out of it is it's

kept everybody on our show humble and hungry.

 

Q

We've had Miami and New York - what British fans are wondering is

when are we going to see CSI-Birmingham?

J's A

Do they REALLY wonder that?

 

Response-

Well, Not really

J's Response

We'll see! It would probably work, but luckily enough for you guys,

you don't have quite as violent a society as America has. Myself, i'm

rooting for maybe CSI-Hawaii or CSI-Maldives

 

Q

The show's always full of amazingly detailed procedures and

fascinating information. What's the craziest fact youv'e learned over

the past six years?

J's A

Well, one of the things I'd never really thougt about is when you go

into a hotel room. The physical history of the people that have been

there before you is all there, laid out, but not visible to the eye.

 

Q

You mean fluids and hairs?

J's A

Oh yeah, all that. There's a story told in every room. CSI, the TV

show, has the best forensic equipment in the country - which is sort

of sad - so we get to locations and all our stuff works. You turn on

the ultraviolet lens and go ''urrggh!'

 

Q

With all you know now, if you were to commit a brutal murder, how

would you avoid getting caught?

J's A

I do believe i know how to commit the perfect murder.

 

Q

Want to tell us?

J's A

No, I couldn't possibly! And i should never brag about it. I was

having a morbid conversation [ on the subject ] with one of our

technical advisers, and we have a security guy on location who's

specail-forces trained. The two of them came up with what they though

was the easiet was to get away with murder.

 

Q

So if actors from the other CSI series start disappearing, we know

who to go to.

J's A

[laughs] Yeah right! I'll be lead suspect. I'm a pacifist though, i must admit.

 

Q

Is your character Sara Sidle ever going to get it on with Grissom?

J's A

Oh gosh. We've had this crazy dance for many years - off and on, off

and on. But i still have faith for that storyline, particularly

because of all the darkness these characters live with on a daily

basis. It would be just a little stream of light in their lives.

 

Q

As an actor, do you relish the challenge of kissing a man with a

beard?

J's A

[ laughs ] I don't want to come across as TOO experinced, but i have

kissed a man or two with a beard in the past. With the right guy, it

can actually be quite pleasant.

 

Q

Some of CSI's scenes are really gross. What's the closest you've come

to losing your dinner?

J's A

Oh yeah. Six years of that, and I'm the most squeamish member of the

cast! I really feel like the writers give me most of those scenes

intentionally because they think it's funny. It'll affect my day, my

lunch. Two season ago Eric Szmanda { CSI's Greg Sanders } and I were

looking through the stomach conents of a victim. They had bought in

pizza because we were working late, and both of us alomst got sick.

Even though it's make-believe, a lot of our stories are based on real

events. It has less to do with what i'm looking at theen why i'm

looking at it - how they died.

 

Q

You're up for the World's Sexiest Vegetarian this year. Have you been

on the website voting for yourself?

J's A

Once i did, and i wondered if i could get away with repeat voting.

There's stiff competition.

 

Q

Isn't ''World's Sexiest'' Discriminatory against all the ugly

vegetarians out there?

J's A

[ laughs ] That's very true.

 

Q

One final Question: Is it depressing or frustrating being an acotor

in a series where the real stars are carpet fibres and glass

fragments?

J's A

They steal every scene in the show! I've been consistently upstaged

by things that in my more vain moments I never thought i could get

upstaged by. I get upstaged by the soles of shoes...

 

Jorja Fox was talking to Benji Wilson

Jorja is just amazing! You guys heard the interview with her on Radio Five Live that aired May 18th (when she was in the UK)? She sounds lovely... and man, that voice... And she's a perfect actress! Have you seen the ER outakes on purejorja? You've got people like George Clooney messing up big style, and Jorja's perfect every single time... God I love that woman...
