ALEX DIMITRIADES AT 22 - interviewed by Brigitte Duclos on “Monday-to-Friday” - 1996

Now one of Australia’s best-recognised, busiest actors, Alex Dimitriades had just a few credits to his name when he did this interview with Brigitte Duclos in 1996, but his resume was not too shabby for 22. He was obviously over interviews already.
The star of the film “The Heartbreak Kid” and TV series “Heartbreak High”, talks of his other work till, including “Aladdin”, "GP" and "Blue Murder” and an impending comedic role (which turned out to be “Wogboys”).

He’s so handsome

[@matthewjury4385]

Just watched the film Head On, he was fantastic as Ari

[@BabyFaceBren]

Agreed. I was an extra in a UK-Australia collaboration ("The Cry'), in the scene after the couple's baby disappears and a crowd of locals are behind the police tape, gawking (me being gawker #2 or #3, I think, I couldn't see myself when I watched, I wound up on the cutting room floor, I guess, talk about "cry") and Alex was the detective investigating, got out of his car (about 10 times) and brushed past ME about 6 times). It was pretty cool (brush with fame!)

He is underrated...come back to the States❤

[@Tikfaethen]

Not underrated, at all. Not as talented as he thinks he is and too arrogant to work with

[@GabrielSolisDesign]

@@Tikfaethen Who says he's arrogant?

[@ashtonrichardson3825]

Man he is amazingly beautiful 😍😋

[@christineminin7044]

Alex est très beau comme tous les grecs

[@BabyFaceBren]

Translation - "Alex is very handsome like all Greeks". And oui! (yes!) I'm off to Greece for the first time in April 2023. Can't wait.

She didn't ask the important question-why did he leave Heartbreak high

[@chrisgraf1304]

Pepper!

[@BabyFaceBren]

I'm not sure what this refers to, but I've been seeing it for 2 months and if I don't answer it, it will be here every time I come to my comments, so I'll just say thanks for visiting my channel!

[@ritarita9046]

Without him, the show was soooooo boring I couldn’t continue watching it

[@anthonyvasquezactor]

His replacement, Matt, was definitely not as interesting. And I did feel the show slowly declined after season 1. It still had some life in seasons 2 and 3, but by 4, too many characters had left and the new ones were boring. Season 5 was able to revive the show a bit with interesting new characters and for me, that season was a good place to end.

[@YeehawOutlaw]

@@anthonyvasquezactor honestly! Nick, Con, Steve, River, Jodie, were such a vibe.

[@anthonyvasquezactor]

@@YeehawOutlaw I kept watching through season 5 just because Katerina (played by the gorgeous Ada Nicodemou) was still there, but really even with her there, the show was getting stale by season 4. I also liked many of the teachers, like Southgate and Yola and I was a bit disappointed when they both left. I also liked Deloraine as the principal and thought Dyson was a very poor and boring replacement for him, though Bailey kind of made up for that when he replaced her. I also really didn't like Bell, either. And even though I was sad Yola left, Ronnie made a pretty decent replacement for her.

[@YeehawOutlaw]

@@anthonyvasquezactor why did they all leave the cast and was the reason?

[@anthonyvasquezactor]

@@YeehawOutlaw Well Alex Dimitriades (Nick) left over a pay dispute and the network demanded that Nick be killed off in a very dramatic fashion. As for the others, I have no idea. Maybe some of them left for the same reasons Alex did or maybe they wanted to move on to other things.

[@nickslade3978]

Hopefully Nick can be deepfaked into seasons 2-4 of HH in place of Matt

[@carmendelabellemotte7865]

Damn giggling like a gay man😢

[@BabyFaceBren]

He was very young and probably very nervous but sadly not gay😢
