Flashback to last June and Yvonne Strahovski, 27, is lunching on prawns and salad on the East Brighton, Melbourne, set of the comedy I Love You Too with writer and co-star Peter Helliar and WHO senior editor Simone Casey. Born and raised in Sydney, Strahovski has flown in from Los Angeles while on hiatus from her role in the hit US series Chuck (Season 3 returns to Fox8 in July). “We got her at a good time,” says Helliar. “Her role [as star Brendan Cowell's English girlfriend, Alice] doesn’t have as many punch-lines as everyone else – she had to find her moments, and she has.”
