Swallows and Amazons stars Dane Hughes and Teddie-Rose Malleson-Allen chat with Hag, Con and Bex!!!

Did you really make fire? Bex age 5

Dane Hughes- Yes, we had to learn how to make it before filming.

What’s the best boat trip you’ve ever taken? Con age 9

Dane Hughes – When I went on the Norfolk Broads with my Brother and Dad.

Teddie-Rose Malleson-Allen – Last half term I went to Greece to a tiny tiny island. You could only get to the island by boat and once on the island there were no cars.
The boat over to the island for the first time was really exciting as we didn’t know what to expect, I remember we went really fast and the sea was a beautiful blue.

What do you enjoy most about sailing and can you now sail a boat since making the film? Hag age 12

Dane Hughes- I enjoyed sailing when it was extra windy, and yes I can still sail now.

Teddie-Rose Malleson-Allen – The scenery in the lake district is epic! You can see for miles and we pretty much had the lake to ourselves. I’ve not been in a sail boat since filming but I’m pretty sure I would remember what to do.

Where is your favourite place to chill out and have fun in real life? Con age 9

Dane Hughes- Switzerland, I like to go skiing there

Teddie-Rose Malleson-Allen – My favorite place to chill out and have fun in real life is my sofa at home!

I love hanging out there reading books or watching films with my friends.

Were any of the cast sea sick while making Swallows and Amazons? Hag age 12

Dane Hughes – No thankfully not

Teddie-Rose Malleson-Allen – Nobody was sea sick but we all got hit on the head by the sail boom a lot. You have to really pay attention and duck when it swings across the boat otherwise you get whacked and that really hurts. It happens in the film to Susan.

What do you think is Your “Destiny”? Con age 9

Dane Hughes- To join the Army like my Dad

Teddie-Rose Malleson-Allen – Not to answer questions like that!
Er…Frankly I’m not really sure what my ‘Destiny’ is.

If you ever really met Pirates – what would be the first thing you said to them? Hag age 12

Dane Hughes- I’d probably ask to join them, it sounds like fun

Teddie-Rose Malleson-Allen – Probably scream, real pirates are terrifying.
