B&B’s Alley Mills And Dick Christie hat About The Joys Of Comic Relief

Tom Stacy
Talking Turkey

Digest: How does it feel being B&B’s comic relief couple?

Dick Christie: I love it. Brad [Bell, executive producer/head writer] told me that was exactly why he was hiring me. He said there was not much in the way of comic relief when it comes to soaps, and Brad was adamant about having the comedy, just to balance everything out.

Alley Mills: It’s funny you mentioned that, because we’re here in my dressing room, which is Sally Spectra’s, a.k.a. Darlene Conley’s, old room. It feels like a bit of a museum. She had pictures of Clark Gable everywhere. He was obviously one of her favorite movie stars, and she had a Tiffany lamp. I feel like I’m trying to keep that spirit alive. I never got to meet Darlene, but everybody loved her, and maybe in some way we’re paying homage to the hole that was created when she passed away.

Christie: And in direct contrast to that, my dressing room is a closet on the third floor next to the guard gate. (Mills laughs.)

Digest: We’ve seen Pam and Charlie’s romance, but yet, there have been no love scenes. How would you describe Pam and Charlie’s romantic life?

Mills: Hot!

Christie: Hot with an asterisk. (They both laugh.)

Christie: I think Pam and Charlie are still working on first base. They want to make sure all the I’s are dotted and T’s are crossed before anything happens, and that’s great because it gives them room to grow.
