tV: So you're the new hit show on CBC.

PH: Yes, this is the first season we're airing January 10. We're all very excited and hopefully everyone else it too.

SL: This is going to be, as Adam likes to say, the new Beachcombers meets the Dukes of Hazzard. I'm completely joking.

LG: It's nice to be part of a Canadian show showcasing Canadian talent, Canadian crew, Canadian stories, and beautiful Canadian scenery.

AB: And the thing I love is that this show really represents the talent that we have here, especially in Vancouver. You don't get to see that often because for some reason, when it comes to bringing film and television to be made in Canada, they always split it half and half: they always showcase the American talent over the Canadian. This will prove that Canadian talent can stand with any television that's being made.

tV: An audio high five.

AB: yah man!

SL: Absolutely!

tV: How many episode have you filmed so far?

PH: We just finished number seven.

tV: What's your favourite episode?

PH: Number seven. It's the Vancouver episode. It's really beautiful. A lot of the other episodes evolve around some drama, action adventure around the airline and flying, which is exciting, but from an actor's point of view this is the episode which is kind of a pay off of the build up of the relationships that have been building throughout the season so far.

A lot of things come full bloom in this episode and there are a lot of issues and relationships and dynamics that are confronted in this episode. It's a relationship, drama based episode with some fun and humour.

AB: My favourite episode is the first one because it's what I was drawn to in the first place. It reveals the start of the growth of our characters in Arctic Air. The second best episode will be the one where my character Bobby Martin and Pascale's character Krista get to kiss for the first time. It hasn't been written. I don't know what season it's going to happen but you never know.

PH: He's planting the seed all the time with the writers just waiting for them to take the bait (laughs).

tV: (to Adam's partner Leah Gibson) What do you think about that?

LG: I'm going to stay out of that conversation (laughs).

tV: We're getting the signal to wrap up already so quickly, and without giving anything away, what's the most exciting thing we can look forward to this season? Just a little hint.

AB: Wow, that's hard because hints can give away a lot.

PH: Two characters from Arctic Air who work on the airlines do hook up.

SL: And it might be someone sitting at this table.

AB: Wow, that was good.
