Jorja Fox visited England recently and talked to the BBC's Radio Five Live about her character's recent change in mood.

"Sara had a bit of a rough ride for a while," the actress said. "I think this past season is probably the lightest season that she has had on the series, and it was kind of refreshing and fun to do. You see her smiling a lot more, for no particular reason, really, other than there is nothing extremely traumatic happening to her that particular week."

Fox willingly admits Sara is smarter than she is, and has no qualms in saying she'd never try to be a real CSI. "I barely passed sixth grade science," she joked. "I have a tremendous amount of adoration and respect for my character who is so much smarter than I am and I love the science of it. The forensics I think might really be too dark for me to handle on a daily basis."

One thing the actress would like to attempt is write an episode, and she might get her wish before the series end. "I did, very early in the show, go to them and ask them if I could write an episode. And they kind of very naively, I think they said to me, 'you know what, in season four you can write and episode.' And I think they thought at that paint that we would never have a season four."

"Season four came along and ironically enough I started on this play, Dear Bernard, so I opted out of try to write a show. It's still on my list. It's something I've been invited to do and I don't know if it will ever make the air, but they are certainly going to let me write one."

While the new season of CSI starts, Fox will be busy with Dear Bernard, an original musical she produced. "It's about a young girl in the late sixties who leaves a small town in England to, uh, seek her fame and fortune in America. So, it takes place in New York City the back drop is the fashion industry."

Dear Bernard premieres in London on July 21st. Thanks to ylime from YTDAW for the transcript.

Why can't the CSIs get dates?

	All work and no play makes Greg a blue boy.
	It probably has something to do with the fact that every time Horatio Caine has sex with a woman, she dies.
	Shower sex loses its allure when there's lemons involved.
	These people collect body fluids for a living. Then again, if David the coroner can get laid...
	They can get dates, I bet. We just don't see it.
	Three words: Hank the Skank.
