Flashback: Season 2, Episode 2 “Baby Bumps”

Kim and Zara re-enact Nina and Chris' relationship for Fraser

[everything-offspring]

I was lucky enough to actually go into a surgery and witness a caesarean being performed, which was one of the most amazing experiences I've had in my life. What I will never forget is the image of this baby's face, eyes closed, totally silent, and then without its eyes even opening, you can see it's face change and register that it's in a new world, and it breathes in air. We'd have these 2-week-old babies, and they'd come on set for about 10 mins. And they'd be covered in jam to make it look real, so these babies are really slippery, super fragile, and I've got these latex gloves on. So I'm freaking out trying to remember my lines, and trying to hold them properly. And the live babies are between an actress' legs, so it's kind of uncomfortable. And then they call action, and you've gotta keep it all together.

Actor Jay Ryan who portrays Dr Fraser King in Offspring series two.

It's all in the delivery:

Luckily Ryan did his homework, asking a paediatrician friend in Melbourne for advice, and shadowing one of her registrars for two days at the hospital.

It was great research for an actor about to be thrown into delivering babies on set in a fairly pressured environment.
