Richard HatemHOST

Richard HatemHOST
I want to say menacing, but I think that's just because that's what the character is supposed to be.
Tim RogersGUEST
surgeries that But
Tim HeathGUEST
Billy Whitelaw's interviews about working with him are so lovely.

George RogersHOST
And then just fucking shoals off.
George RogersHOST
But not long after that, a replacement nanny shows up, Mrs. Bailock, who's played by Billy Whitelaw.
George RogersHOST
And Billy Whitelaw, for those of you who are our age, maybe you're not familiar with the name, you're not familiar with the person, she played Joyce Cooper in Hot Fuzz.
George RogersHOST
And she was the owner of the hotel that Nicholas was staying at.
George RogersHOST
And he calls her Hag when she's doing the crossword.
Colin GomezHOST
But I want you to take note of the name Damien, as I'll mention it in another scary film a little later.
Colin GomezHOST
And then there's Billy Whitelaw, who was another standout as Bailock, Damien's nanny.
Colin GomezHOST
She is, how should I put it, wonderfully creepy, and you feel uncomfortable whenever she's on screen.
Colin GomezHOST
But the story behind the film is almost as creepy as the film itself.
Martyn StrangeHOST
He's bringing his recent tragedy in his life to the performance.
Martyn StrangeHOST
I think Billie Whitelaw is astounding in this film.
Rich JohnsonGUEST
Mm.
Martyn StrangeHOST
She just, from the moment you see her, you know something is, is going to-
Rich JohnsonGUEST
Yeah, she's got incredible eyes-
Martyn StrangeHOST
Yeah
Rich JohnsonGUEST
... uh, Billie Whitelaw.
Rich JohnsonGUEST
Um, and most probably a reason she was cast as well-
Dave ParkerHOST
Maybe more on the British side if you see that.
Dave ParkerHOST
But Billy Whitelaw's in here.
Dave ParkerHOST
fantastic love her and uh stuff like twisted nerve she's decent role in this one you also got ned eisenberg early role after the burning from 81 so he did this one not too long afterwards so it's kind of kind of a bizarre cast other other memorable people too um hell on the cop from uh freaking last boy scout i think pops up in this one i recognized him right there But so here we go here.
Dave ParkerHOST
This one, it's an odd one.
