John has been doing Spartacus PR in the UK for Bravo's premiere of Season 1. The Good Noise blog as a post about escorting John on a tour of the BBC for various interviews.

Charolotte makes mention of John appearing on The One Show. The One Show is a "Magazine show with topical reports, features and interviews from around the UK"

Unfortunately for those outside the UK, you can't view the video clips. No mention is made of when the episode will air.

Update from Barbara Davies:

[UK residents can watch/listen to these on the BBC iPlayer. John mentions that Andy is 'in remission'.
The consensus seem to be that John's puppy Coco is cute <g> and that Spartacus is 'graphic' and 'full on'.
The radio interview is longer and more interesting e.g. John talks about nudity clauses, the ancient Roman equivalent of phrases like 'Is the Pope Catholic?', about accents, about allowing the programme makers to make the show they want, and trying not to think about Monty Python's take on the Romans.]
