Pushing Daisies - watch it, you know you want to

For those who have watched it, here’s a funny Q & A bit with Lee Pace for you
If you’re just walking down the hallway, do you ever brush up against Anna Friel and freak out?
We actually bump into each other all the time — all the time! Anna will kind of run up and give me a big hug — earlier this week, she did it, and I kind of flinched a little bit, and she kind of jumped back and was like, “Did you just flinch when I gave you a hug?” I was like, “I’m sorry, I don’t know where that came from!” It’s just playing Ned. I shouldn’t be flinching when a beautiful girl like Anna Friel gives me a hug, but I flinched! That’s weird, that’s odd, that’s not normal.

Explanation for those who don’t know what Pushing Daisies is about. Ned is a guy with a strange ability of being able to resurrect people from the dead. Catch is that if he touches them again, they’re dead again forever. Double catch, if he doesn’t within a minute of having resurrected them, then someone else dies in their place at the end of 60 seconds. Anna Friel plays Chuck, Ned’s true love from childhood who he didn’t find again in adulthood til she was already dead. He resurrected her but now can’t touch her again or else she’ll die again forever.
