Just found this on YouTube, also from her time in Australia. She discusses plenty including her change of appearance, favourite story etc etc.

What I find particularly noteable is how relaxed, healthy and all together more youthful SF comes across in the interview. Compared to the awful way her character is dressed/made up and the tiredness that's evident in her recent scenes, it's good to see that the actress seems in such good spirits. Of course she had to get another comment in there about retiring.

Also the interviewer has to be the singularly least charismatic individual in Australian journalism.

Thank you very much for this! I didn't know she had cancer and that's why her hair went the way it was. It makes sense. I love it that her favorite story is the amnesia/homeless one. It was a terrific one. Kinda weird though that she doesn't know that the fans not only know the difference between Bill and Brad, but that they know all the writers, directors, producers, makeup artists, go-getters, etc, etc.... But so true about the different styles and the tendency of Brad to have these 2 milisecond scenes.

Another clip. This was Susan Flannery's appearance on an Aussie game show. For someone who doesn't like a lot of publicity, she does a great job handling the attention.

Ten musta paid her trip, don't you think?

Not from what I heard. Allegedly (I think I read it on some Aussie TV industry blog) she was over to see her daughter and agreed to do the promotional appearances in her own time. My assumption would be that she felt more at ease doing interviews etc in another country where the show is taken less seriously but who knows.

She certainly comes across as a very bright lady.
