Inman continued to play in live shows after his success as Mr. Humphries, and began to incorporate camp mannerisms to those performances too, once saying "Even when I'm not playing Mr Humphries, say at a summer season, I camp it up a bit.

Hilliker then furthered her training at Club Dance in Arizona when she was five-years-old and began her ballet training at the Master Ballet Academy in Arizona at the age of 10. In 2011, Hilliker and several of her dance friends entered Disney Channel's Make Your Mark Ultimate Dance Off contest, vying for the prize of a featured role on the hit show Shake It Up. Her group, AKsquared, won the competition, and was featured in the Shake It Up episode "Camp It Up." The on-camera experience left Hilliker knowing she wanted to pursue being a professional dancer. In 2013, Hilliker became a series dance regular on the ABC Family show Bunheads, appearing in multiple episodes as Baby Bun.

Torchwood Magazine Yearbook, p. 86 Despite the funny aspect of the script Hughes took the role seriously stating that "everyone plays it for real" and that "you can't camp it up". She believed that as an actor "you've got to believe what you're doing". Kai Owen describes Thomas, Morgan and Hughes collectively with Robin Griffith (Barry Williams) as a "good old-fashioned Welsh cast who know what it's all about".Torchwood Magazine Yearbook, p. 85 Jonathan Lewis Owen was cast as Rhys' best man "Banana Boat" a character referred to sporadically since Torchwoods first series premiere "Everything Changes" (2006). In keeping with the character's name he was given a pair of banana patterned cuff links to complement his costume. As a joke, Eve Myles (who Jonathan Owen had previously worked with in other projects) left a banana skin on his car on his first day of filming.
