Winsor talks about the very emotional scene of Thorne finding Macy alive:
“I just starting crying and I thought, 'I'm not going to get through this! I am so emotional with all this stuff that's going on, I won't be able to get through it!' Susan Flannery told me, 'Winsor, you're just going to have to trust your instincts and that's all.'"
Winsor talkes about an episode of “Acapulco Heat” that he and John McCook gueststarred on in 1998:
"Basically, my character on the show arranged to have his character's wife kill him. It was a silly show. Some of the lines we had to say were so bad, we don't even know how we got them out. It just goes to show that not even good actors can help bad material. We still laugh about it to this day."
“Susan has changed and affected my life, and that doesn´t happen that often. She´s the first person I think of when I need to ask someone for advice. I call her at home, and she gives it to me straight. I know that she´s always going to be honest with me. That´s what I like about her.”
Q: “Is Susan Flannery a tough lady... she seems that way”?
Winsor: “Tough to the point that Susan knows... Let's put it this way, she's a very secure individual! She's one of the finest actresses in the business. She's the nicest woman I've ever met, but not someone you'd want to cross”.
Handing Susan her well deserved Emmy is something Winsor will never forget. “I respect Susan as much as I respect anybody on the planet. I think this award is 13 years overdue. It´s about damn time that this woman gets recognized for the work she´s done”.
"She's a tough, badass woman, and I like that. She's as good as it freaking gets."
Q: “How do you like working with Susan Flannery”?
HARMON: ”I've learned a lot from her. Susan Flannery can make you a better actor. Great teachers have a knack of reading the material and they can see something in the scene that nobody else sees, find something that makes it closer to real life, which is what we try to reproduce in these scenes. Susan has that knack. Susan can say something to me [in rehearsal] and I'm like, "Oh wow, that's great." It may just be a little bitty thing, but it'll completely turn a scene around and make it go in another direction. The scene will suddenly come alive just by that one word or one look or one thought -- it's simply amazing. And Susan does that on a daily basis”.
They've played father and son on B&B for the past six years, but would you believe that WINSOR HARMON (Thorne) once arranged to have JOHN McCOOK (Eric) killed? At least, that was the plot when both men starred together in a 1998 episode of the series ACAPULCO H.E.A.T., Harmon tells Soaps In Depth. "Basically, my character on the show arranged to have his character's wife kill him," notes Harmon. "It was a silly show. Some of the lines we had to say were so bad, we don't even know how we got them out." Harmon admits he and McCook still joke about the episode, which neither would deem a highlight of his acting reel. "It just goes to show that not even good actors can help bad material," says Harmon. "We still laugh about it to this day."
Q: “Who do you intend to invite for your wedding to Deanna”?
Winsor: Susan Flannery and anyone else who “wants to rock and roll” with us”!
Q: “Have you got a nickname from your friends”?
Winsor: ”Yeah. Wiener. Susan Flannery created it. It was an inside joke”.
“In five years… Hopefully, I'll still be on BOLD AND BEAUTIFUL, because I'm really enjoying what I'm doing. There's a reason why people like Ronn Moss and Susan Flannery and John McCook and Katherine Kelly Lang have been on this show for 10 years. It speaks for itself. There's something that keeps those people here. It's a family”.
Q: “Is there someone on the show you would like to have more scenes with”?
Winsor: “Probably with Susan Flannery (Stephanie), Ronn Moss and John McCook...”
“Susan [Flannery, Stephanie] was supposed to slap me in a scene once and I said, "I don't believe in that. I don't believe in violence and I really am against it." I don't think it came down to any arguments or anything. I think Susan even decided to take it out [of the scene].”
Q: “What character on the show would you compare yourself too”?
Winsor: “I think I have a lot of qualities of my mother, Stephanie”.
Q: “Who taught you the most about acting”?
Winsor: ”I would say... I don't know! Maybe Susan Flannery. She's said several things that have stuck with me like pins in a cushion, and have changed me in a lot of ways”.
“I did an episode of BAYWATCH NIGHTS with Eddie Cibrian, and I guest starred on ACAPULCO HEAT. It was the show that used to have Fabio on it. That's how I met John McCook [Eric]. I played "Dave the Wave," a world champion surfer who became a smuggler. I killed people actually. John McCook was the leader of the smuggling racket. He was a big, rich importer who wanted to take over the world. The episode was about the spear of destiny, supposedly the spear that the Centurions used to stab Christ. The legend is, whoever gets control of that spear will rule the world. Well, I break into a museum, steal it, and shoot several people on the way out. Then, I sell it to John McCook, because all I care about is surfing, and I need the money so I can go to Hawaii or Australia or wherever. That's what the show was about. We shot it in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico for six days, and we had a blast”.
Q: “Do you hang out with any of the people from the show?
HARMON: “I see quite a few of them, actually. [Unfortunately] most of them have left. I used to do a lot of hanging out with George Alvarez [Enrique] and Schae Harrison [Darla] and Lindsay Price [Michael], but lately I've been seeing Ian Buchanan [James], Susan Flannery [Stephanie], Charlie Grant [Grant] and Ronn Moss [Ridge]. We had dinner the other night. We're a very close knit group there; it's amazing”.
“I'd like to see me and Stephanie get into it a little more, I love working with Susan Flannery.”
