Buffy The Vampire Slayer

Anthony Head loved starring in new TV show ’Free Agents’ because he was allowed to swear.

The 54-year-old actor - who shot to fame starring in US TV show ’Buffy the Vampire Slayer’ - admits he liked appearing in a more adult-orientated series.

He said: "I’m doing a series for Channel 4 called ’Free Agents’, which is a very adult comedy. I get to say words that I have never ever got to say on TV before. All kinds of expletives - and variations of them.

"I am the chief expletive person. It’s marvellous stuff. It’s very, very funny."

Anthony also spoke about the possibility in starring in a spin-off of ’Buffy the Vampire Slayer’ focusing entirely on his character, librarian Rupert Giles.

He added to BANG Showbiz: "It’s long been rumoured. I talked to the writer Joss Whedon the other day because there were rumours on the internet there must be a ’Buffy the Vampire Slayer’ movie coming out after ’Twilight’, but there isn’t.

"But he said he would still like to do this thing with me so it may or may not happen. I would do anything to work with Joss again, he is a really lovely guy and a great creative mind."
