Can you remember first seeing your costume, did you like it?
It was okay. You know I�m an actor, I keep repeating the same thing, and I remember when I went to drama school the first thing that they issued me was a dance kit in tights, in a leotard and I felt a bit self conscious about that having never been in anything like that. And James Kahn - you know who James Kahn is - was in my class and Dabney Coleman was in my class and here we are standing around in these tights, a leotard and looking at each other and you know the first reaction is always, God do we look ridiculous � do we interpret this as an attack on our masculinity? But after half an hour you forget it all because it�s a matter of acceptance. This is what you�re there for. You�re there to learn and to act and costume is just another part of your tools, that�s all. So, no I didn�t have any specific feelings about the costume other than the series uniform did look very much like pyjamas to me. I�m probably the only one in the entire world who liked the first movie costumes. They were very difficult � we needed people to help us get into them. Each of us had our own dresser, but aside from that I just felt it was a real snug fitting, I liked it. But I had no, I had no enormous � I would have done the part regardless. I would have done the part in jeans if they asked me to.
