BAD COMPANY
Paul Telfer is enjoying his latest DAYS storyline, in which
Xander is on a downward spiral following the loss of Sarah.
“When I came on DAYS properly again as a contract player and went on to have the romance with Sarah and the story with
Mickey, I was surprised that that was the storyline they were giving me because it was so different from Xander in the past,”
Telfer notes. “I understand there was this big endeavor to not necessarily redeem him, but take some of the harsher edges off of him, and see him intend to try to change and become a better person. And as much as I enjoyed all of that, it is nice now to be able to return him back to a more dark version of Xander. It’s not like he’s just reverting back to the way he was before. He’s reverting back to the way he was before with the knowledge that he can try to be a decent, moral person, so it makes the stakes a little bit higher. So that’s been fun. I know a lot of people are going to be upset and are upset about the shattering of the Xander/sarah romantic storyline, but at the same time, I hope people do enjoy Xander in and of himself and have fun with how wild things get and how quickly it happens.”
