yay!
I wrote a transcript for this episode
I thought this eppy was awesome. If you're having trouble with the player, you can still read what happen! Check out the forum topic I made called:
BRUNCH TRANSCRIPT: Lena Headey
I combined the dialogue from the web version and the televised version.
There are some quotable quotes in there! :)
YES.
I have been waiting for this for about a month now..
I love Lena Headey. :)
Yeah
Uh...
a) I totally have those ninja socks.
b) There are not words to express my adoration for Lena Headey (Laid to Rest anyone? HILARIOUS. And also such satisfyingly gruesome death scenes)
c) Happiness.

OMG *THUD*
Wooo.... feeling a little woozy from the awesomeness. Also, I've never seen/heard an interview with her before and I hadn't realized that she sounds exactly like my family, which is slightly odd, wasn't expecting that. Plus the hat that appeared out of nowhere about halfway through was adorkable :)
Oh and most perfect ending to a video ever!
*swoon*
Super!
Ok, I just started to love Lena a little more...
BetweenThaLines
Lena Headey
Goddamn frakkin player.
I knew there was a reason I stoped watching things on this website, and I just rememberd what it was.
me too
yep me too! I stopped watching videos as well because I need 5 hours to watch a video of 20 minutes...
girl, 20, charming but insane...
Then I was lucky!
It only took me a bit more then 1 hour.
Funny episode, though! Worth all the anger and frustration over the player. But I'm not going to make it a habbit, I'll stick to watching TJO and thats it...
ditto
i'm with you on that one! i used to watch pretty much every vid here, but since they have the new player it's a pain in the a** and takes forever... i hate it because i feel like i miss a lot but i'm just not patient enough to sit in front of my laptop for hours to watch a 25min video!
maybe they'll notice the complains and switch players again! (pun intended!)
it only took me an hour to watch
Lena on BWB = A horny, ahem, happy Lenageek!
Been waiting for this for a month and stayed up until 2:30am to see it on LOGO before it was posted on AE!
Lena hot under the covers...pant, pant, as I thud to the ground! So adorable in her pjs w/Bridget!
'From my cold dead hand, you get this banana!' Ahahahahaaa!
The acting lesson was full of win! And why does Lena hate poor Baby Bridget so? :0
'Haagen Dazs piss on Ben & Jerry's' - LOL!!! Those Brit expressions make me LMAO every time!
I couldn't breathe at the end since I was laughing so hard at the pillow fight! A peek at Lena's sexy back tats - WHOO HOO! And a perfect ending with Lena's head popping up from the floor right in front of the camera.
Genius, Miss Bridget and Miss Lena. Pure genius...
yesyesyes
Best BwB ever!
Lena is awesome! I'm all "high" now because of this. Off to watch it again! ;)
Save TTSCC!!!
Yay! As someone who lists
Yay!
As someone who lists her religion as "Lena Headey" on Facebook, I think it's safe you say I've been excited about this. And I thought Liz Feldman getting Emily Deschanel and Melanie Lynskey was huge!
Lena was hilarious as Bridget's creepy roommate too, I love how she's been getting involved with After Ellen projects. I think she's going for number 1 on AE hot 100 ;-)
in love
i absolutly loved this one, lena is so cute ;)
Biggest smile on my face
& I have not even c it yet :D:D off to watch now .
Lena, I love u
Dug it madly
I just finished hackysackin' for an hour and this Ep. was a especially nice treat...followed by popcorn, toffee bars, and wine. God, must exercise more. Goddamn it. It never ends. Look how wonderfully compact Lena is and strong too apparently. Where are my weights?
Anyway, I totally dug that episode. Very fun interview. Lena and Bridget rock. Especially because I can finally say Lena's last name correctly. Extra points for that.
LOVE!!
omg lena!!!!
love lena!! she s so funny,smart and gorgeous and such a great actress!!!
and her smile omg!
totally agree about HDazs!! loll
thanks so much for this brunch, it s my favorite!!
sexy tatoo :-))
lena, come in france pleeeease!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THAT smile, THAT accent ?!
Simply gorgeous!
Best BWB Ever!!
Lena is hilarious! Wish I had a spare two mil to fund what would surely be a smart and funny film.
Nuff said ==================>
excitement!!!!!! btw, AE
excitement!!!!!!a few mins in! born awesome! haha her reaction was awesome, = fitting. love her accent (i'm english but hers is just a really awesome version)
btw, AE is the reason I'm totally gonna fail my exams (i hope not!), just so you know. so i guess i won't be a supersmart Sarah-type... but at least there is such good entertainment free on the net... i can always just give up at life and just sit online all day.. (jk)
ah bk at uni, i forgot what fast internet was like!
also a film Lena is in (If Only) was on TV the other day! sorry thats probably really annoying for those outside the UK or who missed it.. but i recorded it! watched about 15 mins, to do with time travel? and kinda 'Sliding Doors' (released in same year) /'Butterfly Effect'-ish? sounds good! but its at homeeeeeeee, and i just got bk to uni.... can't watch it until summer :( my dad better not delete it! http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0138590/ - oh, apparently its mainly called 'The Man with Rain in His Shoes'.. but where? surely its a UK film? but its uk title isn't its main one. hmm. a decade old, should be interesting to see!
edit: and apprently its called "Twice upon a Yesterday" in the US.. how many names can a film have?! :p they're not even different due to language translation. its interesting, i wonder why the name changes. what they think will do well in each place?

God she's gorgeous. So cute in PJs!
I love that she managed to keep the hat on all the way through the pillow fight haha.

Brilliant
Lena Headey is hilarious, sexy and smart and she seems so very cool. Thank you Bridget for a superfantastic guest!
I loved the ending!
Go Lena!
Socks!
My sister bought me those exact same ninja socks for my birthday last year lol.
Thanks gals, that was
Thanks gals, that was fabulous!
*love* for Lena's baby-dyke t-shirt ;-)
She's cute AND funny...
Thank you Bridget (and AE) for an interview with the yummie goodness that is Lena Headey. She's cute and funny - and finally someone who doesn't fall for Baby Bridget's charms ;)
Too bad the pillow fight was so short! I was hoping on more action. And, oh dear, that sneak peek of Lena's back tattoos *drool* that sealed the deal. If I weren't smitten already, I'm now smitten with Lena even more :p
I'm off to take a cold shower!

best brunch ever!
she had me
. . . . at the accent.
"it's a space thing"
What I wouldn't give...
What I wouldn't give to be Bridget as I sit here this morning watching enviously this BWB episode with Lena Headey in Bridget's bed.
Sunday could not have gotten off to a better start.
My only question is, after Lena Headey, where do you go next? Here's hoping for Crystal Chappell in BWB, but then I might keel over for good. Or how about Lena's partner in crime Piper Perabo?
Thank you Bridget, Karman and the whole gang at AfterEllen!
There was only one thing missing... Bridget should have had Lena show us her tattoos. After glimpsing the one on her lower back, I was curious to see the rest.

oh she should have. Lena's
oh she should have. Lena's arm tattoo is SOOOOO pretty
If i'd get any tattoo it'd be that except i don't really want soeone's exact tattoo on me, also it wouldn't have a speicific meaning, but yeah. google it

Yeah baby, She did! I found that so freaky, Never thought i'd read the word huddersfield on afterellen, lol
'Uddersfield all the way!

Lena is beautiful and seems very down-to-earth.
Good work Bridget and AE.
