"Well, I like you," she said. "So that was a really easy part…. Because there was something very relaxed, obviously, because I'm Australian and you're British, we have that… I don’t know, it's just a sense of humour. It's good chemistry."

Hugh agreed and Nicole continued: "We talked... I trust you. But that's also part of working together, I think, when you really click, then you sort of sit and you do talk and you share things and you open up. You're incredibly honest. I'm always like, 'Hugh, shush, you can't say that.'"

Fortunately, Nicole's husband fully supports his wife's career and is a big fan of the show which will debut on 25 October on HBO.

He's already watched the mini-series and Nicole revealed exactly what he thought of it. 

"Keith loved the whole series, and he is brutally honest," she told Hugh in the interview. "He didn't fall asleep. He just kept saying, 'When can I watch the next one?'

"And I kept saying, 'Well, not tonight, not tonight,' and [he] kept begging for another one, which was kind of nice."
