I guess one of the loveliest aspects of not being a regular every week on the show meant that I was able to do other television series in Australia, and work on films like Lantana. I had a wonderful cameo in that.

I've just finished a tour, on stage, with a play called Away, which is a classic contemporary Australian play set in the sixties. I've just finished touring that through New South Wales.

On the tour I decided to give myself a challenge which was to begin studying Othello. It's one of those mountains I've really wanted to climb as an actor, and I've begun that journey, so what I'm ready to do right now is tackle Othello. So if there's any British directors out there that want to do the role with an Australian/Kiwi actor, I'm ready to come to England and work on that.

That's taking up a lot of my time right now, as well as touring America doing conventions.
