When you started in the show I thought you were a nice guy, why have the scriptwriters turned you into a nasty piece of work? It doesn't suit you.

I think you are the worst character in Neighbours and really nasty to Karl and Susan , but I guess that means you are doing your job well cos I hate Darcy.

Hi Faye - Thanks for your kind words. It's great fun being bad. I'll be in the UK next year, look out! Love Mark.

 

Tess asks

How do you think you can last in Ramsay St? You are being so round and arrogant to your aunt and uncle.

Hi Tess, Darcy's just misunderstood, that's all. Trust me. Love mark.

 

Are you anything like Darcy in real life?

I think the most interesting and challenging things about being an actor is becoming people that are totally different to my everyday self. Of course some aspects of characters I have played are closer to the "real" me then others but that's for me to know and others to guess at.

 

Are Darcy and Dee ever going to get together again

Nothing is impossible

 

Are you really a Doctor? If so can you help me?

No I'm an actor pretending to be a Doctor so I can't give out any medical advice - sorry

 

What are the rest of the cast like to work with?

They are all great people - cast and crew. Neighbours is the happiest set I've ever been on and I feel lucky to work here.

 

Have you had any real life romances with any of the other cast members?

No . It would be too confusing for all concerned!

 

How do you and karl get on in real life?

We hate each other's guts and have traded punches many times...just kidding. Working with Alan is the most fun I have on the show - well nearly the most fun.

 

Kylie W Asks

Why are there never any birthdays in Neighbours?

It's because we are immortal.

 

Josh asks

Just want to say that Darcy reminds me of Ridge on B&B. This is because you have a different girl every time I see you appear on Neighbours. Keep up the good work and if Brooke comes to Australia I'll be sure to give her your address. Send me your secrets that attribute to your success with woman.

Josh - just being mentioned in the same sentence as Ridge brings a lump to my throat but secrets told are secrets no more - sorry mate - though I could be persuaded to change my mind should the right amount of readies somehow find their way into my mits. Cheers Mark.

 

Guy asks

Why does your character not go after Flick? She is the most goodlooking person on the show (tell her I said that)

Guy - Flick is actually me - ever notice we are never together in the same shot?

 

Jan asks

Why Does Darcy always end up with all the new girls?

Hi Jan. It's because I bribe the scriptwriters. Cheers mark
