Season seven spoilers
Risingflame: Do you appear as anything other than a living breathing human in season seven?
Tony Head: All I can say is... well that's the question isn't it? Albeit that we're in a spoiler zone, I can't say.
mishelly: How many more seasons might there be planned for Buffy? Or is it a secret?
Tony Head: [As it's] planned at the moment, we're in our last season as Buffy. Whatever will or may come from it will probably have a slightly different format. I know that Joss ever saw it going beyond seven [seasons]. Things have worked out the way they should have. I think it'll grow and develop and become something else.
Buffygem: What was your first reaction when Tara got killed off?
Tony Head: I was sorry to say goodbye to Amber because she's a very lovely person. She's got a fantastic voice - she's also on my little CD. James is on it too, but part of Joss' power is the fact that he can take a character that's much loved, and kill them.
Critics long long ago said they knew that Buffy was a cool show when it crossed the line - when Principal Flutie was killed. When he told us that Joyce would be killed, I was like, "How"? And then the brain tumour thing - that's life. And the show that followed Joyce's death was just a remarkable piece of work.
I thought Amber [Tara] dying was a very specific, clever plot point. I think it's a really, really strong cast, a very 'ensemble' cast.
