One of most-anticipated new cast members, David Berry as Lord John Grey, made his Twitter Q&A debut last night! While he doesn’t yet have his own Twitter account, his fan group, Berry’s Beefsteaks, hosted him so we could get to know him a little. He’s also currently starring in A Place to Call Home, an Australian TV series set just after World War II (available on Amazon).

A Long enough to love it.

Q Swords or pistols?

A Swords.

Q What do you do for down time?

A Change nappies.
