Once Upon A Fan

As promised, here is the fully transcribed tweet session that Robert Carlyle held last night. The last one was hugely popular.

Robert Carlyle ‏ @robertcarlyle_ #dearie #dearie what's up?

@robertcarlyle_ Hi, Robert! Just wanted to tell you that you play Rumpel's character so well. Amazing talent, Mr. Gold.

@ThsPaigeIsGreen Thanks.

@robertcarlyle_ Will you be at the Oscars tonight ?

@EaterOfCandies no

@robertcarlyle_ sad that there's no once upon a time tonight.

@SomberBanshee yeah.. there's something else on I think.

@robertcarlyle_ maybe you can cast a spell on Billy Crystal, since the Oscars are pre-empting @OnceABC ?

@jeopardista @OnceABC I think Rumple is actually down in LA as we speak, making some last minute deals.

@robertcarlyle_ French words for french fans? =DD

@Haylody non

@robertcarlyle_ Is #golddiggers what your followers should call themselves?

@ShiGoodfield I don't know.. what are the options?

@robertcarlyle_ Will you watch the oscars today?

@whereismallu Only if my eyes are taped open?

@robertcarlyle_ what's it like working with the Mayor Regina @LanaParrilla on #OUAT and @jenmorrisonlive

@iGeekSara @LanaParrilla @jenmorrisonlive I love working with Lana. She's a wonderful actress. Totally committed.

@robertcarlyle_ you are one of the most genuine actors i've ever had the opportunity to watch! thanks for being on #OUAT

@jaybeeizzle that's beautiful.. thank you.

@robertcarlyle_ never in a million years did I think would call myself a #golddigger, but I'll gladly do it for you!

@AdrianCrystal honestly I like both.. leaning towards Dearies.. you all decide.

@robertcarlyle_ good evening sir. Did you have good week of filming?

@drwildhare filming was tough in the cold and mental rain.. but perversely rewarding. Finished at 5am on Saturday morning.

@robertcarlyle_ Mr.Carlyle, my lil #Oncer, Audrey, is 9 yrs old today. Could she get a birthday tweet from you, please?

@angelbabehungry Happy Birthday Audrey x

@robertcarlyle_ who's more fun to be: Rumplestiltskin or Mr. Gold?

@Jeanandthen9 i don't think you can separate them.. They're opposite sides of the same coin.. with the same face.

@robertcarlyle_ so are you enjoying talking to your fans on Twitter?

@Amanda7017 It's going to take me a while to get used to it.. I am honestly blown away by all of the comments and wishes.. I thank everyone

@robertcarlyle_ When you shoot until the wee hours, how much down time do you get before you have to go back?

@NancysHolistics I work tomorrow from 7am.

@robertcarlyle_ Will we see more of the chipped cup ?

@ChippedBabyCup I actually have the chipped cup.. i kept it after the scene in the cell.. Just like Gold.

What's your favorite line by Rumple/Gold so far? @robertcarlyle_

@Misty_Nichols "Back? No, no he's dead"

@robertcarlyle_ Is that what your character's fans are called now? xP btw you're my fav character in OUAT. Oh and you're a BAMF. that's all.

@RuiKay ok, here it is then everyone... You shall be the Dearies.

@robertcarlyle_ @ChippedBabyCup The cup actually looked a little more chipped in Storybrooke than it did pre-curse. Anything happen to it?

@arosynose @ChippedBabyCup Rumple packed up in a hurry, didn't wrap it in paper and the journey through time and space took it's toll.

@robertcarlyle_ Do you think Gold will ever find out Belle is still alive?

@TheNeedsOfMany I hope so.. I think that would be a lovely episode.

@robertcarlyle_ How did you learn to sort of turn off your natural accent for acting in American shows/films?

@sarina_held I went to drama school in the UK.. You learn certain skills that can be useful.

@robertcarlyle_ I'm glad I didn't have to call myself a #GoldDigger! Why does Mr. Gold live in a pink house?

@ArielHenry Brilliant!!! i don't know

@robertcarlyle_ Do you like France ?

@SayxK oui

@robertcarlyle_ #dearies, what inspired Rumplestiltskin's laugh?

@melissaROM the laugh came in the pilot in the 2nd to last take of the last set up (camera on me) it came from nowhere, actually surprised me.

@robertcarlyle_ #dearies Oh! I have a question! What is it like to shoot on a green screen set? @melissaROM can be difficult. you have to turn up your imagination big time. There are odd bits of furniture around but nothing else.

@robertcarlyle_ Random question, but how did you prepare yourself for the intense scene in "Summer" where your character had the breakdown?

@OneDestiny82 It's taken me years, but you just have to try, as best you can, to feel that persons pain.

@robertcarlyle_ What is the story of the wallpaper pic on your twitter page?

@jaxharrington Brighton Beach (uk) 1971. That's my dad, all blurry on the left,and of course smiler at the front is me. Very special to me.

@robertcarlyle_ haha dearie...love it when you say that

@Liindsayy14 I always add one or two into a scene when i think it's appropriate.

@robertcarlyle_ It's a really awesome looking picture. I know, I annoyingly keep replying to everything you say. I have no life.

@changetherain It's cool, I read all the tweets, impossible to reply to everyone. So i grab a few at a time.

@robertcarlyle_ When you were filming "Angela's Ashes" did you meet Frank McCourt? Was it difficult to portray a man like his father?

@Meaghan_C We met loads not difficult, he was just a man, however flawed.

@robertcarlyle_ What was your favorite western growing up?

@ifyousaysodeary The Magnificent Seven.

@robertcarlyle_ @joshdallas It is so cute that you two have pet names! Could you please post a picture together next time you are on set?

@ifyousaysodeary @joshdallas he's a lovey

@robertcarlyle_ The minute facial expressions you do so well, eg in the 'she needs a.. home?' line: done consciously? Or do they just happen?

@Nollilols im not aware

@robertcarlyle_ Do you have a favorite actor you would like to work with in the future? @OneDestiny82 Too many to mention though I would love to work with Michael Caine. Met him a couple of times.. What a gentleman.

@robertcarlyle_ Is Bae really Rumple's son, or was Zoso right?

@silicongirl75 Never thought of that.

@robertcarlyle_ Your American accent is very good but every once in awhile I think I hear a hint of a Scots accent; or am I hearing things?

@KEC9 American accent!? I think you are!

@robertcarlyle_ Aside from premieres, do you ever watch any of your work or do you prefer to film it and move on?

@NancysHolistics i will watch something twice, maybe 3 times if I like it and then that's it.

@robertcarlyle_ whats your favourite TV show?

@vulcanlogic93 At the moment it's Columbo. Love Peter Falk.

Robert Carlyle ‏ @robertcarlyle_ ok.. i'm off. Learn some lines for tomorrow. Great talking to you all. I'll be back Wednesday. If I didn't answer you it's nothing personal!

@robertcarlyle_ was it like working with the Mayor Regina @LanaParrilla on #OUAT and @jenmorrisonlive @iGeekSara @LanaParrilla @jenmorrisonlive Shit.. I just noticed you asked about Jen as well. She is absolutely terrific, such a pleasure.

Josh Dallas ‏ @robertcarlyle_ Hello Darling! Love Dearie.

Robert Carlyle ‏  @joshdallas ah there you are darling.. Having fun?
