mX's Jane Watkins copped a dial tone to the ear when she spoke to the actor.

Read the transcript here.

mX: What have you been up to while you're back in Australia?

Melissa George: I am doing a movie on Monday (today) with Joel Edgerton.

mX: What can you tell us about that movie?

Melissa George: It's called Felony and I believe if you look it up you can get the proper synopsis.

mX: What about your spy drama TV show Hunted? It premieres here this month on SBS, but it's been on air for a while in the UK, right?

Melissa George: Yes. It's been out in America and the UK for a while.

mX: And how would you describe the show?

Melissa George: It's set in the espionage world of security, of a high-security fund, and we don't know if we're working for the good guys or the bad guys.

mX: Has playing a character working with the CIA on Alias been much help in preparing for Hunted?

Melissa George: (Alias character) Lauren Reed was nowhere near (Hunted character) Sam Hunter. The physicality really helped. I got taught a fight technique called Keysi that's taught to Bond, Bourne and Batman. The three Bs. I'm one of the first females to get taught this.

mX: Has the fight training given you a new, emboldened swagger when you walk down the street?

Melissa George: Oh, more, much more. When I'm in New York City, it's like I want to pick a fight.

Melissa George through the years

mX: Your character uses a lot of code words in Hunted? I was wondering if we could throw some words and phrases at you and you could explain what they mean to you.

Melissa George: OK.

mX: What about the term ''authorised removal''?

Melissa George: As an example, (Hunted character) Keel will authorise removal of a certain person and that means, basically, go kill them. My boss in the show could use it on me but he knows I could use it on him, too, with my own bare hands.

mX: What does ''Byzantium'' mean to you?

Melissa George: That's the name of the security firm that hires her.

mX: And ''Lex Shrapnel''?

Melissa George: Lex Shrapnel is a wonderful actor who plays one of the characters in the show.

mX: That's his real name, not his spy alias?

Melissa George: Nah, that's him. That's his real name. Lex Shrapnel is one of my dearest, dearest friends. I love this guy. He's so great.

mX: What about the word ''mole''. It's not used on Hunted the same way an Aussie would say it?

Melissa George: Very different, but maybe it has a similar feeling.

mX: And what about Alf Stewart's catchphrase ''ya flamin' great galah''?

Melissa George: Oh, c'mon. Whatever.

mX: Do you get a lot of Home & Away questions when you're back in Australia?

Melissa George: Ugh, pass. I think this interview's done. Thank you. (Phone dial tone.)
