Revealing the Man Behind the Voice of PUSHING DAISIES
In a recent interview with SFX, PUSHING DAISIES creator Bryan Fuller expressed interest in perhaps one day not just hearing Jim Dale’s narration but perhaps seeing the narrator as a character on the show.
“I would like him to turn out to be a character on the show,” says Fuller of the unseen orator, whose voice is provided by former Carry On actor Jim Dale, “so that we get to see the point of view from which the stories are coming.” He goes on to say, “Fairytales, I think, are fascinating because usually there is an omniscient narrator. But as this is a modern day fairy tale we can have a spin on that and see who is telling this story, and what their perspective is. And I know who, in my mind, is telling the story, and so I would like to reveal who he is. Maybe not in the second season, but eventually. Hopefully we will know when the show is going end so that we can sort that out clearly.”
So Piemakers, who do you think is telling the story of Ned and Chuck? Who would have that perspective to know everything about their lives and their inner most thoughts? Some kind of deity? Perhaps the very being that gave Ned his special abilities?
