RHYS: How was your experience on The Imitation Game?
GOODE: We'd just had Teddy ［Goode's youngest daughter］. I had just finished this film called Pressure—I was literally filming my last day in Aberdeen. It had been a really great shoot with Danny Huston, who's a joy. I got a phone call saying, "I'm going into labor," and I was like, "Oh my God!" So I spoke to my director, Ron ［Scalpello］, and Ron was like, "Shit. Right. Okay. We don't need you in this scene, so strike that. Let's film you out now and we'll be done in half an hour." Which is incredibly kind. So he shot me out. I got on a plane from Aberdeen down to London Heathrow. Got there. And then about two hours after I arrived, little Teddy was born.
RHYS: You made it? Brilliant.
GOODE: And then about three days later, I was doing rehearsals for The Imitation Game, which was quite brutal.
