burntcopper | Six and why Tricia Helfer kicks arse

Just watched the last-but-one BSG ep (yes, I know I'm behind), loved it to bits, but just read SFX today and it had an interview with Tricia Helfer (I managed to leave it on the train, so can't go back and study said interview), but she had some great things to say about Six.

The different versions of Six? They are different. Same basic person, but raised in different circumstances, different views and so on. The one we see around Baltar is Femme Fatale, softly spoken Six, wears the gorgeous silky outfits. Caprica Six is Military Leader, the one who commands in the field, may wear heels and sexy clothing, but it's stack heels and tight black you're not going to fall out of, not stilettos and gauzy, and kicks the shit out of Caprica Boomer because it furthers the cause. Where Femme Fatale Six is softly spoken and manipulative, Military Six is direct as all hells. Then there's Intellectual Scientist Six, who we saw for one ep on Galactica, buttoned up, quiet, bookish. Apparently there's going to be others in S2, as Tricia was talking about how much she's going to love filming certain eps since we have different Sixes again.

Gives you a whole lot of stuff to think about the different versions of each Cylon. Especially combined with her comment about the Boomer Model, and its' basic flaw for being too human and empathising too much, even though it made her fit in so well.
