Lucy and her team were arrested last night.
We need to support her. Even if you don't believe in climate change, you can still support our very own Sparty actress.
She has done so much for this show. Not just the fact that she's on it and doing a phenomenal job. But many of her fans that started watching because of her....she has a huge fanbase that contributes to the ratings of this show in addition to promoting it.
All the promotional touring she did.....doing interviews for it the last two years. She did the most interviews. Remember the support she had for Andy when he was sick, and the support she gave to Liam when he got the part. Her beautiful words when Andy died. Her helping to set up a trust fund for Andy's family.
Her kindness with all the fans always. She's done so much for this show. If you have a Twitter, a few kind words of support would be great: @RealLucyLawless
-And if you wish you can: Sign up to save the Arctic

Video description: On 24 Feb 2012 seven people including actor Lucy Lawless scaled the 50 meter drill tower on a drillship commissioned by Shell to drill for oil in the Arctic. They set up camp at the very top of the ship's drilling derrick and barricaded the access ladder. There they stayed for four days and three nights to prevent the ship from leaving for the Arctic. With phone cameras, a laptop and a solar panel they proceeded to speak to the world via a 24/7 live feed on the web and the response from around the world was overwhelming. Just before their eventual arrest on the fourth day Lucy Lawless summed up the impact of this action in this tweet: Seven of us came up the tower on Shell's drillship but 4 days later 130,000 will come down. In solidarity we can #savethearctic. By the time they did come down over 135,000 people had email Shell demanding an end to its Arctic oil drilling.
