vbeadle98 says: Hi Julian, I think.

RaeleeV says: Hi ya Julian!

jzalter says: Hi, Julian!

Scoopsdphe says: Hi Julian...

Phinny99 says: Hi Julian!

Ashton7 says: Hey-ho, Julian

dingosdaddy says: Good evening to you all! Yes, i'm still the internet beginner!

ABandt says: Hello

vbeadle98 says: Everyone, please remember to be as quiet as possible so that I don't have to mute,

vbeadle98 says: Julian, I'm Valarie. I'll be moderating tonight

dingosdaddy says: hello Valarie...nice to meet you!

vbeadle98 says: thank you, hopefully we didn't confuse you too much

dingosdaddy says: I confuse myself!

vbeadle98 says: We'll start with the first question from Ashton7

Ashton7 says: Yipes. Didn't know I was first... Julian, I love photography and am dying to photograph you... are you coming to Super Soap Weekend????

dingosdaddy says: Hello...Ann, I think...I don't know yet about Super Soap weekend...but from what i hear, it sounds like a lot of fun!

jzalter says: Hi, Julian - I'm Ruth from Florida, one of your dedicated candy friends! Do you enjoy working at GH (and with Jackie) as much as it seems you do?

dingosdaddy says: Hello Ruth ... so you're helping maintain this waistline war! Yes, I'm having a blast working on Gh...its my first daytime experience and its been terrific so far. There are so many ups and downs in this business that it would be a shame if you can't enjoy the work...and yes, its a lot of fun working with JZ....

vbeadle98 says: Kathy you're up <g>

KMJvet says: pass on me

dingosdaddy says: yes...she's had enough of talking to me!!!...

Phinny99 says: Hi Julian, it's Susan in New York. I was wondering what character (or actor) on Gh that you haven't already worked with on GH would you like to see Jerry have a chance to interact with?

dingosdaddy says: Hello Susan! There are a lot of terrific actors on GH and a lot of possibilities for Jerry...if i had to pick one for now... I think there are some terrific storyline possibilities for Jerry and Luke...their backgrounds...they are both wayward brothers...woould both do anything for their siblings...and of course Jerry keeps popping up in the prescence of Luke's sister!!!..

vbeadle98 says: Scoop, you're next

Scoopsdphe says: Hi Julian! Audra Beberman, from rainy Long Island, New York. Just wanted to let you know that I'm about halfway into Barney's Version and I really like it! So, I fear I'm becoming predictable, but since you have such discriminating taste, I have to ask: Any good books on your bedside table right now?

dingosdaddy says: Barney's Version is very, very funny...glad you're enjoying it! No novels at the moment...just read a very interesting book...Zen and the art of screenwriting by William Froug (...not as heavy as it sounds!!!)... and I have the second installment of Peter O'Toole's autobiography sitting here waiting...ga

vbeadle98 says: Amy, you're next

ABandt says: Hi Julian, Amy from Wisconsin, if you could be any character from any movie ever filmed -- which character would it be and why?

dingosdaddy says: So many, so many.... off the top of my head... O'Toole's Lawrence of Arabia and Errol Flynn's Robin Hood... because I think I fell in love with movies because I wanted to be a swashbuckling hero!...

RaeleeV says: Hi Julian! Love watching you on Gh, I am Rachel by the way. You and Ingo have a great chemistry, you really make me think you two are brothers. I was wonderng, how do you manage to keep a straight face during those scenes, at times they are just hysterical?

vbeadle98 says: it's a bit rude for the hostess to leave the party before anyone else <g>

dingosdaddy says: Hello, Rachel! I have a lot of fun working with Ingo and I think we both really enjoy pushing the brother "thang"! Sometimes it is hard to keep that straight face....OOps! Take 2...Take 3....

vbeadle98 says: that's cute

RaeleeV says: lol

vbeadle98 says: Have I gotten everyone in here?

CassyLee says: Julian, are there any particular actors on GH that you haven't gotten a chance to work with yet that you'd like to?

dingosdaddy says: hello CassyLee... I don't really think about specific actors...but could envisage some very interesting roads for Jerry to go down that would bring him into contact with characters that he hasn't yet confronted...I don't mean that to sound vague, but my focus would be on the story rather than the specific actor..

Jessamine says: Hi Julian!:-) Do you prefer a romantic storyline or an adventurous one? Is there anything you'd change about your current storyline?

dingosdaddy says: I'm greedy...I think romance and adventure can go hand-in-hand and I think that can be a fascinating combination for the viewer... No changes, but I look forward to exploring more of the depths of Jerry and of his history...

Semi-Angel says: Hi Julian! In the last chat, you talked about stage fighting and we've seen you in physical confrontations with Ingo on GH, have you ever gotten hurt from any of these stunts?

dingosdaddy says: The Keychain Queen!! hello... I've never been hurt at GH.... but When I was a student, I went with a play to the Edinburgh Festival (in which I played a skinhead!!!)...There was a stage fight and one of the actors got a little too enthusiastic and actually hit me with his right hook...the rest of the play was a very uncomfortable experience for me!!!!

LadyMGarcia says: Hi Julian -Any plans for projects outside GH ? A film or play maybe ?

dingosdaddy says: Hello LadyM...not at the moment...just after I started on GH, I did a cameo ina TNT Movie, "Legalese"...but the GH schedule is the priority... a play might be interesting for the evenings...

Irene says: Hi Julian! Thanks for your time here...do you have a motto you live by and what is it?

dingosdaddy says: Hello... nothing that I would preach to others...but for me, I have always believed that Life is for Living...seems obvious, but sometimes one can forget...

ocean8992 says: Hi Julian, first let me say how much I love Jerry, although I wish he would have stayed a bachelor a bit longer.Also I love when you and Ingo do the brother thing. You two are great together. Anyway do TPTB have any plans on having Jerry and V become friends or interacting with each other in any way? Like maybe getting Jax out of a bad relationship? *G*

dingosdaddy says: Hello Ocean...cool name...thanks for your Jerry support... but you would have to ask TPTB that one...I'm just an actor!!!!

PushyDame says: Hi Julian :-) Do you ever make up your own history for Jerry to draw upon that isn't part of what the writers have given you to date? If so, what? GA

dingosdaddy says: I forgot my ga...silly ME!...anyway, let me get to the Pushy Dame! Hello... Much of Jerry's image was established before I was cast, so , yes, it is important for me as an actor to fill in some of the biographical details in my mind... some of it is logical deduction, some of it is artistic licence/license...but it's just for my preparation in exploring the truth of a scene...

jzalter says: Julian, does Jessica still think Ingo is your "brother on TV"?

dingosdaddy says: Yes, Ruth...although now I think she's a little clearer on that line between fiction and reality!... 

Ratatouille_Strychinine says: hello julian..is jerry going to do a little dance number at the nurses ball...?

dingosdaddy says: Now that's a trade secret...but he will be "actively" involved....ga

vbeadle98 says: Ok, Julian this is my question, would you like to see V and Jerry involved in a bit of an adventure story? I always thought they had a bit of chemistry going.

dingosdaddy says: I think Jerry and v could have a very intriguing dynamic, especially with Jax around... and they did seem to develop a bit of an adventurous spirit at the end of Monte Carlo...let's see...

kkopec says: Julian..great to meet you last month.Going home this year to jolly old England?

dingosdaddy says: I always try to make it back at least once a year, especially now that the girls can enjoy a little bit of England...but when, when, when?...

saint71 says: Hi Julian: when did you know you wanted to be an actor and what else would you be doing if you weren't

dingosdaddy says: When I was at high school, I was sorely tempted, but I was captain of the football/soccer team and it just wasn't "cool" to wear tights in a Shakespeare play!!! But when I was at University, that's when i really fell in love with the Stage... 

Tracee says: I just basically wonder whether he's happy with the more settled Jerry than with the wild man they talked about for years.

dingosdaddy says: (not verbatim- lost answer, from memory) he felt that relationship with bobbie wasn't holding jerry back, it was giving him new challenges to face.

dingosdaddy says: Thankyou to everyone for your time and enthusiasm...it's been my pleasure to spend this time with you all! Goodnight!
