Old Interviews of Adrian's

[Victoria]

We have a lot of new members who have never had the opportunity to read a lot of old interviews of Adrian's. So it is time to post a few and let them catch up on all the fun and interesting interviews they have missed over the years.

The first is an Russian Digest interview from 2003.

WHO WANTS TO LIVE FOREVER? By: Nora Medvedeva (Readers Digest December 2003 Issue - translated in English)


Do you believe in immortals? After watching "Highlander" TV series, I was almost ready to acknowledge that there are immortals among us. The Hollywood actor Adrian Paul, who played the Highlander in this series, claims that there are people who genuinely believe in the existence of those who live forever.

Over a period of six seasons, fascinated viewers in 60 countries watched how the gallant, manly and very handsome immortal hero lived his earthly life: experiencing deep emotions, no stranger to human passions, valuing friendship and always ready to face up to evil. Even though at times he was a little too predictable in his aim to fight for the good * when the forces of evil gain the upper hand (the viewer, naturally, knows that this cannot be for long), we invariably root for the hero and believe in him. Yet it is impossible to believe, after 117 episodes, that there is no inner bond between the actor and his screen personage. And it was this bond that we tried to determine when Adrian Paul gave our magazine an interview in August of this year, when he arrived in Russia to take part in the movie "Moscow Heat."

The 44-year-old actor talked about the hero whom he played for six years and about immortality. Energetic and charming, he began his career in the model business in England, and continued it successfully in Hollywood. Despite moving to California, Adrian has remained a European at heart. He travels widely around the world, and customs officers in numerous airports ask him: "Where's your sword?"

READERS DIGEST: You probably owe your looks to your Italian mother. Would you say that you inherited her temperament as well?

Adrian Paul: I'm often too optimistic. My mother is more down-to-earth. But I am amazed by her vitality, she has so much energy. Even though she is 80 years old, she manages just as capably as she did at 65.

RD: Were you surprised that "Highlander" is so popular in Rus-sia?

AP: Actually, this series enjoyed more popularity abroad than in America, but I had not expected it to be so widely known here. I flew to Moscow from Los Angeles. When I had to change planes in New York, the power blackout occurred, and my plane arrived in Moscow seven hours late. Then it emerged that my luggage was lost. I had to fill in some papers at the airport and was asked where I would be staying in Moscow. I said I had no idea, but that definitely someone would be meeting me. I left the customs area, and found more than a dozen television and photo-correspondents waiting for me! To be honest, I was not prepared for such a reception. Everything is working out wonderfully for me here. RD: Let us talk about "Highlander."

AP: I'm going to disappoint you. The series is ended. It was like good wine: you get pleasure from it and retain warm memories. This is something that cannot be repeated. As for the movie "Highlander: End of the Game", I feel that the creators tried to say too much instead of concentrating on some one aspect. There are moves to shoot a new film. I'll take part in it, but I want to see the script first.

RD: You came well prepared into the world of cinema. For in-stance, you engaged in dancing, specifically * jazz ballet. Can you explain exactly what that is?

AP: It's ballet, but with elements of jazz. The fashion for jazz ballet appeared in England some time ago. Jazz ballet is livelier and more expressive, ordinary ballet is more technical. Why did I take up dance? Because I always do everything in reverse order: instead of studying in my youth, I began to learn when I got older. At that time I took part in fashion shows, but I always loved dancing. You know, in clubs and so forth. Then my friends began to say: "Why don't you take up dancing seriously?" So I began to take lessons.

RD: Is it true that this helped you to get your first role * that of the Russian dancer Nikolai Rostov in "The Colbys" series, which, as a matter of fact, was also shown in Russia?

AP: That was probably a bizarre combination: an Anglo-Italian playing a Russian dancer in an American TV serial. They were looking for an actor, although my knowledge of ballet technique undoubtedly boosted my chances of being selected.

RD: You began to study martial arts several years before you played in "Highlander." What prompted this?

AP: Like many boys, I got into a lot of fights in childhood. When I played rugby, not a single game passed without a fight. Seriously, though, I have been studying martial arts for the past 15 years. Starting with kickboxing and Tae Kwon Do. Then I moved on to kung fu, which translates as "hard work". One may compare Eastern martial arts masters with an artist who paints a picture. He enhances it with different colors until it reaches full expression. In combat, the principle is to use all the methods you know. I worked out my style of sword-fighting gradually. As a result, Duncan McLeod's style contains elements of Japanese, Chinese and Korean combat. To this, I added European fencing. It is this combination that is characteristic of my hero: he lived so long in so many places.

RD: Incidentally, how was the historical line of the serial de-vised?

AP: From the very beginning, we worked out the Highlander's entire life over a period of 400 years. If in one series we showed what he did in 1750 and then returned to 5 years before that in a subsequent episode, I already knew the details of his life at that time: how he looked, what he wore, what he thought, what was his emotional state.

RD: And the accents.

AP: Yes, that's another story. In the first episodes I spoke with a strong Scottish accent. But by the 16th episode the producers began to worry that the general public would find it hard to follow what I said. I am not one of those people who insist on their opinion at any price. But if I know in my guts that I am right, then I'll stand up to it. So I said no, Duncan was born in Scotland, and it is natural for him to speak this way. Take away the accent, and he becomes a man from nowhere. As a result we agreed that after 1840, when the Highlander goes to America, he would start to lose his Scottish accent. If you look at all the historical episodes, you will see how he and his speech change. Continued in Next Post..........

Russian interview continued....

RD: What did Duncan McLeod inherit from Adrian Paul?

AP: Naturally, I contributed a lot to this character. Two actors out of five were chosen for the part of the Highlander at the final casting. The second actor did not know martial arts and could not handle a sword. Had he been chosen, the series would have been entirely different. On the other hand, as the choice fell on me, they began to add more and more combat scenes into the scenario. I remember that by the start of the second season, I asked: what are we making? A Hong Kong action movie? We're making "The Highlander" here, there are other story lines to develop: love, humor, and history.

RD: What is your favorite story line?

AP: I like them all. In the course of the series I meet many beautiful women and fall in love with them. This was a great pleasure for me. I also like the historical part. I learned a lot working on those episodes. For example, the piece about the battle at Culloden in 1746. The English devastated the Scots, and this is why Duncan hated the English. This, in turn, explains his ironic attitude towards such a character as, for instance, Hugh Fitzcairn, who was an Englishman.

RD: You directed four episodes yourself.

AP: I was the keeper of the flame. I acted before the cameras every day; I was more and better versed than anyone about the series. I could tell every new director what we had already done. I learned from them and, at a certain moment, decided to learn more about this profession, what it's like to stand on the other side of the camera. As director, I also came to know more about the work of the actor: I saw how a scene is composed, how the expression on a performer's face is changed on film. I had not realized just how difficult this profession is: you are responsible for every detail, down to the costumes worn by the actors, where lighting should be directed and how many extras are required for crowd scenes. But I enjoyed directing, and will do more in the future. My debut as a director is the first episode of the fourth season. By that time I had been Duncan McLeod for three years. This series is about his return to Scotland and to the times when he was young. This is the fans' favorite. It has heart, and returning to one's roots is important for everyone, be they Russian, Scottish or American.

RD: What do you feel about the idea of immortality?

AP: Death is something we all fear. That's why we are so keen to seize all those beauty and youth things like healthy way of life, cosmetics, plastic surgery. Nobody wants to grow old. Yet, even if we stay young at heart, our bodies invariably deteriorate. Observing this process from the side * that is probably what immortals such as Duncan McLeod can do. I have wondered, what if someone were to be immortal? Would it be interesting? Is it worthwhile living forever? We come into this life to learn, while we are here. Not just exist, but also learn something about ourselves. Some people live, others merely exist. Improving one's spirit * that is the path worth following. Immortality grants the opportunity to strive for improvement over a very long time. An unlimited time. Something completely different to what is given to mortals. I work on myself. I believe that over the years, my consciousness has been developing. But it's like everything else in life: first you manage to achieve a burst, and then something seems to slow you down, or even throw you back. The main thing is not to lose sight of your goal. Unfortunately, today's world suffers from insufficient respect for human. People often strive to improve their lives rather than themselves, and that is a mistake.

RD: So you don't aim to live forever?

Adrian Paul Fansite AP: No. But I believe that we come back. There is always the hope of starting over again, and do a better job next time. We think there is only one life. People don't believe that we have many lives, and make mistakes that could have been avoided. When I began to master the art of the sword, my instructor asked me whether I had done this before. "I don't understand how you manage it", he said. "It's as though you've held a sword in your hands for many years." And that's exactly what I have done. In a past life I was a warrior, I defended people. And that is what Duncan McLeod was. Strange, isn't it?

[Ambereliz]

What a wonderful idea! Even though I wish there was a new interview with Adrian at least once every month *g* since there is not :( we can at least enjoy reading the many old ones :)

Here is a link to Romantic Times where there is a write up on Highlander with a link to a short video of Adrian introducing Endgame and another link to a very nice interview from 95

[JustBecause]

Thanks, Victoria... and thanks for the link Ambereliz! :)

It's a great interview. I've often wondered about multiple lives - who I was before, and who next I'll be.

[Tessa]

I have this interview from Dreamwatch saved, it's fairly recent. Here he talks about *The Source*.

[Danielo]

Hallo everyone! Imbrand new here, but not new about Highlander and Adrian. That's my first message! ura! Such a great idea about sharing! Thanx Victoria! Are you that Victoria who helped me out to register here?

[Victoria]

Here is another interview where Adrian talks about attending Conventions, E5 and Directing.

The following questions were asked during an exclusive interview with Adrian, conducted by editor Jenni Bohn for the old PEACE Worldwide Magazine but they never made it into an edition because of space limitations.

5/10/04 (discussing the HLWW Walkabout Workshop in Los Angeles at the end of February) J: What about you in relation to conventions? Have you changed? Has it become just a job? Is it still something you look forward to? Have you noticed yourself wanting to stand off, or jump right in?

AP:Well, you know, I have a, what's the word, I don't want to say adversity to conventions, or a fear of conventions, in the sense of...

5/10/04 J: Anxiety, perhaps?

AP:Yeah, it's very interesting to be in front of people when everybody's energy is focused towards you. But I do enjoy it. I do enjoy the exchange that it gives. So, what it comes from and what it goes to sometimes, I don't think I've ever changed that. I still have fun doing it. I don't think there's any job I would want to do if I didn't really want to go and do it. And I've turned conventions down because I thought, I'm not going to have fun at that one. Or there's a job I'd turn down, you know what I mean? So really it's, if I do it, I'm going to have fun doing it. That's basically it.

5/10/04 (discussing updates on projects) J: Okay, what about E5? Was that a really short shoot for you?

AP:Yeah, well it was short...short. I mean, they put me in as much as they could. People were like, "Oh God, we've got Adrian!" So we did a lot of work in two days. A lot of work. By the end of it, it'll seem like we did quite a few scenes. It was a pleasant experience. The crew and cast were really nice. It was fun to work, because, you know, basically I want to work. And whatever's available, if it's half-decent and it's got an interesting script or interesting people in it, then why not work? I don't think, I mean, I turned something down just recently that was paying me fifty times more than E5 paid me, but I turned it down because I was like, I can't do this. So really it was a fun project to do.

5/10/04 J: Your passion as a director - and I guess this comes from the Highlander episodes that you directed - was so evident during Walkabout, they're wondering whether you're planning to keep acting or, I think they're a little afraid that you might decide to move behind the camera.

AP: (evil laughter) No. No. I would love to do that. I don't think I would, what's the word, do that instead. I would love to do something that I could do as an actor and then find a film that I was passionate about and do it as a director while I still actually have my actor hat. Mel Gibson did it in Braveheart very well.

5/10/04 J: What's your favorite toy right now?

AP:Favorite toy. My X-Box? It's kind of like my favorite thing at the moment.

5/10/04 J: This comes from one lady's husband and she felt silly submitting it, but she promised him that she would. He says, how does a man not become "too involved" while filming a love scene...or does he?

AP:Oh! Well, you know, again it varies from situation to situation. I don't think you can. I mean, when you're filming you have the camera, there's a camera there, there's a crew there. So, it's a job, too. Sometimes you laugh because of the stupidity of the situation you put yourselves in. Then it comes up at a convention, and you go, "We're laughing so hard during that one, it's ridiculous."

[Sam]

:) Thanks for the interesting interviews Victoria.
Hard to imagine Adrian anxious about cons.
:D wondering if he ever got past that stage...

[EvanStar4506]

I really enjoyed these interviews. They may be old but still fun to read.
I'm glad there's a place her for them, it just needs a few more. ;)

[luckyD]

HI VICTORIA

I'm a new member and I want to thank you for these interviews. They help us understand who Adrian is.

I'm with Adrian when it comes to learning each time we return to the earth plane. I believe that we all have a "spirit" and that we all must learn "who" we really are.

PEACE TO ADRIAN

Another very enjoyable interview Adrian gave when season six of Highlander was released on DVD

Adrian Paul Enlightens a Novice about Highlander, the Series as Season Six Makes its Debut on DVD

EW talks with the star of the former series about the show, Tsunami Relief and James Bond

(Part One of Two)
Dianne Austin

Who do you get when you roll Bruce Lee, James Bond and Mother Teresa into one charming, handsome and multi-talented star of the stage and screen? You get Adrian Paul.

For the large, intense fan base that never missed an episode of Highlander, the Series during the six seasons it was syndicated in the U.S., Australia and Europe, Adrian Paul was Duncan McLeod.
McLeod is an immortal who originally lived in Scotland in the 1500's. He now walks the earth through a variety of modern times, battling evil in many forms and teaching lessons for present day people in ways that no other human being can. The show offered virtually everything a TV audience could want: interesting characters, romance, fight scenes employing unique combinations of martial arts and special effects, a good message and finally, cinematic variety and beauty, since it was filmed in two different countries.
We had the pleasure of talking with the star of the former television series (the last season ended in May of '98) about the new release of Season Six on DVD, his ongoing efforts in the area of aid for the victims of the December disaster in Southeast Asia, and his latest acting endeavors.
Paul was thoroughly engaging, witty and charming with a great deal of savoir-faire about him, which was uncannily reminiscent of that familiar devil-may-care character, James Bond. A bit ironic I would say, since Bond comes up at the end of our conversation, and was a relevant topic of discussion. (Come back next week for this discussion in Part Two.)
EW: Mr. Paul, I have to tell you that I am a Highlander virgin.
Paul: (With a laugh) Oh, you are, are you? Well, welcome to the land of Highlander--let me de-flower you!
EW: (Laughing with him) Yes, but for right now this is great because I have you to initiate me.
First, can you tell me what you think the basic intense appeal is for the Highlander series?
Paul: Well, I think that it appeals to most people on different levels. One is the romance seen through the flashbacks and present day. The main love affair is the one he has with Tessa. Another appealing quality is the history that is woven into the stories. I've heard of people actually using Highlander to teach children about history.
And we were off--swept away with a conversation about the romance of the concept for the show.
He told me about the many loves of Duncan McLeod and how he borrows from and is affected by each of these relationships. One woman, Amanda, who loves McLeod beyond measure, is somewhat of a bad seed and always introduces an element of trouble for our protagonist. Paul said that Duncan cares for her, but she isn't the love of his long life--she's just too much trouble. We both agreed that such a character can be a very good tool for introducing another element of conflict into the story, since everyone knows how bad women can mean big trouble for good men!
We talked about the premise a little further, getting into the makeup of the character and the idea of his immortality.
EW: Do the immortals have interactions with the present day people in the stories?
Paul: Yes, absolutely. The structure of the show is based on him being like any other guy, except he can't die, so the things he feels, the changes in weather, the cuts on his hand, all those things are felt. They hurt, except he can heal again immediately. The only difference is that he's been around for four hundred years, and the audience sees how he changes through this great progression of time--and because of this amount of time, his beliefs change too.
EW: Such an interesting premise! Now, I know that McLeod encounters other immortals along the way, some good, some evil, and that the only way one of them can die is if one kills another, specifically by beheading.
Paul: This is true.
EW: And when one kills another, something called "Quickening" happens. Can you tell me what Quickening is?
Paul: Well, as human beings, we all have power and knowledge that we have gained over the time we have lived and the idea of Quickening was the receiving of the sacrament of that knowledge and power from the immortal that had just been killed.
EW: And what was the effect onscreen when a Quickening was happening? Were there large special effects that took place?
Paul: Yes, HUGE special effects! I felt more sparks and electrical things on my body than most people ever experience in a lifetime! I've had things blown up in front of me, behind me, on top of me . . . one time there was an explosion that took me right out of frame and they thought I was gone.
While he told me about these kinds of stunts, I remembered that he was trained in martial arts, and I questioned him about this experience.
EW: How many hours a day did you practice martial arts during the run of the show? Do you still study and practice?
Paul: I still study now, but I have so much going on with writing and other things, that sometimes, maybe three weeks will go by and I'll realize I've been away from it, so I'll go back and pick it up again. As far as how much time in the day was spent--it's not just a question of doing it hours and hours a day, it's a matter of doing it repetitively over a period of time. Because it's like learning a language; if you try to learn 500 words in a day, you're not going to retain them all, but if you learn ten in a day and the next day and the next, for some weeks, then you're going to learn them better. Martial arts is something that you're constantly learning and finding out, and if you take a small piece at one time and keep working on that small piece, you will be learning a lot more than you think.
EW: I can see how that would work. What particular style is it that you study?
Paul: Hung Gar Kung Fu--I've studied it for the past 14-15 years. It is something that I really enjoy, because it also has a calming effect. Martial arts was originally invented to stimulate the organs in the body. The craft was started at the Shamin Temple-one of the monks basically saw the state of the others who were ailing and designed a series of exercises that would help stimulate mind, body and spirit. That's how it was formed, and then it was realized that as you're using your inner strength along with the exercises, you can also use this combination of elements for healing and fighting. They were created and structured after that into what martial arts is today.
Well, now I was starting to see why all the intense appeal. Suspenseful duels that reflected extensive training in martial arts, romance, immortality, explosive "Quickenings", and a main character who lives forever--what more could you want? How about a different feel for the settings? The show was shot in Vancouver and France. The Vancouver shoots enabled them to create a variety of set designs and locations, while the Paris and Bordeaux locations lent the European feel for Duncan's roots that was needed for a lot of the episodes.
Paul comments, "What it (filming in those locations) gave the series was an authenticity of who this man was, and a color that not many other series were able to push through because that's not their format. So, to show that color of different cultures, architecture, and languages was fun to play and interesting to watch.
By this time, I was a believer--Duncan McLeod, here I come!

[Ambereliz]

More of the first part

EW: OK, I have a couple of questions about the actual marketing and packaging of the Season Six DVD's that are now available to the public. I read a few of the reviews last night, and what they talk about mostly is the bonus footage, interviews and behind the scenes extras. They're raving about that part of it. One of the best reviews I read was that the way it was packaged and presented, the look and the sound, all the extras, is why people will want to buy it.
Another one claimed that they weren't really thrilled with the content of Season Six as opposed to the former seasons. How do you feel about these reviews?

Paul: I agree, on both counts. About the content of Season Six--the stories were geared to creating a spin-off series and they were testing a lot of new girls in five or six of the episodes, so the arc of that specific season wasn't as developed as other arcs in other seasons. That's what people miss. One of the things that made our series good is the fact that we were diligent in creating character arcs as well as story arcs that could be seen throughout each season, but could also be seen out of order. The relationships remained comprehensible. In Season Six, the same thing was there, but not as much. The content and packaging that we started putting in as early as Season Two became so much better, that we actually had to go back and redo the first season.

EW: Interesting. Well, the critics loved the way it was put together. They also mentioned that it's a must for any fan, simply for the closure.

Paul: Of course, closure. One of the things I said they're going to want to do is the inevitable "toasting to the camera", like "thanks everybody for watching". But then we said no, we've got to close it with mystery. Because when you have something like this that's lasted for so long, the character still lives in peoples' minds-- he's never over really. . .

True--never over--because Duncan McLeod is immortal, in more ways than one. He continues to live on in the story, he can't die. But he'll also live forever in the minds of the fans because of the gentleman who so skillfully portrayed him for six seasons.


And I suppose that makes Mr. Adrian Paul a bit of an immortal in his own right.

Check back with us in a week to read the next segment on Paul, his aid efforts for the little island off the Thai coast that was leveled by December's tsunami, and his most recent career moves

[Ambereliz]

I hope someone has saved and can post the second half of this interview as I can't find mine :(

While I was searching for it in my files I found a very interesting interview Adrian gave after he filmed "Tides of war" so I will post that one next :)

[Ambereliz]

Adrian Paul: Turning the ‘Tides’ by Andrew Davis
2007-10-10

In the here! movie Tides of War, actor Adrian Paul—who is probably best known for his lead role as Duncan MacLeod on the ‘90s TV series Highlander and subsequent Highlander movies—plays Commander Frank Habley, a gay Navy veteran who leads the crew of a submarine that is being stalked by another ship. However, Habley also has to deal with the sudden death of his partner, fellow officer Tom Palatonio ( played by Mike Doyle ) .
Paul recently talked with Windy City Times and shared his views on nude scenes, “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” and Charlton Heston.

Windy City Times: How did you find out about Tides of War? What interested you about the script?

Adrian Paul: This was a different type of story, and I liked that. I first heard about it in Budapest; my manager called me and said, “There’s a script and they’re interested in you. They’re shooting in Hawaii in a few weeks. Let me know what you think.”

WCT: So it was shooting in Hawaii that [ attracted ] you. [ Laughs ]

AP: [ Laughs ] Yeah, it was shooting there. No, I really liked that material.

WCT: Did you have much military knowledge or training before filming?

AP: No, I didn’t. I did go on a nuclear sub and [ conducted ] some research. Being on the sub was an eye-opener; we shot on a set that was bigger that an actual submarine. There is usually only about 6’2” [ height ] clearance, and bathrooms for 110 men are about 9 by 10 feet square.
There was a guy about 6’6”, and he walked around bent over the whole time. Why would you do a job where you’re constantly in pain because you’re constantly bent over?

WCT: I have to say that Matt Battaglia [ who plays Chief of the Boat “Dizzy” Malone ] seemed to have the most thankless job in the movie, because he had to repeat everything your character said.

AP: [ Laughs ] We actually cut out a lot of stuff, but that’s what happens: The commander says something and it’s repeated over and over again.

WCT: What are your thoughts about Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell?

AP: That was one of the reasons I did the movie. It’s the same thing with immigrants; they’re [ vital ] to any country and do a service, but they’re [ sometimes ] not allowed to have political, sexual or religious beliefs—and I believe that’s wrong. Discharging people because of their sexual beliefs is an archaic system; that [ policy ] interested me because now there are commanders who have come out after being under scrutiny for many years. I think that things will change, eventually. In some other countries, [ officers ] just care about you doing the job correctly.

WCT: Getting back to the movie, Hal Sparks of TV’s Queer As Folk told Windy City Times that love scenes are like “simulating sex with a cousin on a dining room table at Thanksgiving.” [ Paul laughs. ] How comfortable were you with your nude scene and with same-sex kissing?

AP: I’ll be honest because it was the first time I’d ever done that: It is much like he described, but it’s a role you play. We did that scene in a couple of hours, and then it was over. It was strange to do because I had never filmed a sequence like that.

WCT: And when you know you have a nude scene coming up, I imagine you work out more.

AP: Actually, I’m in better shape now than I was then. I work out using martial arts every day because I’ve gone back into studying. I rarely go to the gym; I do martial arts—it’s more spiritual for me. [ When doing martial arts, ] you do a lot of calisthenics, cardio and strength exercises that work different muscles. I like being in shape, so I don’t want to go, “Oh, God. I have to go to the gym for the next three weeks.”
Right now, I’m taking Shaolin kung fu, with Shaolin priests. This is rather drastic; we beat up trees and walk on our hands down steep steps—things like that.

WCT: How often do people recognize you from Highlander?

AP: It depends where I am. I just shot a movie in the South, and a lot of people recognized me; in California, not so much. It depends on where it aired and how long it was on. In France, Russia and eastern Europe, it’s very, very big.

WCT: In the ‘80s, you were on [ the Dynasty spin-off ] the Colbys. You met people like Charlton Heston and Barbara Stanwyck.

AP: I met Barbara once or twice, and I met Charlton, Stephanie Beacham, Ricardo Montalban...there were a lot of people on that show. That was pretty much my entry into Hollywood, and I was very star-struck at the time. I still get star-struck on occasion; I’m relatively shy when it comes to things like that.

WCT: What do you have going on now?

AP: I’ve got a couple of movies coming up, including The Heavy, with Christopher Lee. There are also a lot of projects I’m working on right now, because I’m also writing and producing.

The here! movie Tides of War co-stars Matt Battaglia ( Queer As Folk ) , Matthew St. Patrick ( Six Feet Under ) and Catherine Dent ( The Shield ) . Check local listings for dates and times.
