(orchestral music) - Demelza giving Ross a good swipe when he comes back.
- That's one of my favorite scenes actually.
- It was something I cannot explain.
- He was really annoying in that moment.
I couldn't help it.
It's like, "Yeah he deserves a good punch for that one."
- You must see I had no choice.
- Debbie felt that Demelza should stand up for herself and just be a bit modern for once and so she wrote this punch and I turn round and I smack him.
(smacks) (thuds) - Ah.
- And everyone went, "Yes."
- Yeah she hit me hard.
- Aidan sold it so well.
We had such a laugh shooting it.
Finally she was standing up for herself.
To think I did always look up to you, respect you, revere you as my master, long before you were my husband.
- That speech that I've given Demelza there, it doesn't exist in the books, but what does exist is her internal thoughts, so I just thought well, I'll have her say it to Ross.
- But you were not like other men.
- [Debbie] She just played it so amazingly.
- I think she did it, age 24.
Incredible acting.
- So now to discover that you were so much less than other men.
- Do you know what, I watched that scene recently.
God, it's gutting.
- Are fallen so low, because so far.
- I think when you get pulled up by your mum, "I'm not angry, I'm just disappointed."
- It is not my pride that is wounded Ross, it is my pride in you.
- She really takes him out doesn't she?
Those words.
Yeah, she's so right, you know.
And it's devastating for him 'cause you know, there's nothing else she could've said there and that's one of those moments for Ross when you do feel like there's a shift, there's a gear shift you know.
That things won't be the same after that.
That he feels he really needs to get things right and not allow anything like that to happen again.
