“WAIT for the New Year’s Day episode.
“Your brain will blow up,” promised Russell T Davies.
Tonight I was among a lucky few hundred people invited to BBC TV Centre to see Doctor Who: The End Of Time…part one.
Followed by a Q&A with Russell, John Simm and Bernard Cribbins.
“At present, we have more questions than answers,” she points out.
Will Ros survive to make it into another series of Spooks?
Who will she shoot this week?
And just what is her perfume made of?
IT’S no secret that I’m a huge fan of Caroline Aherne’s work.
She knows what the important things in life are.
Including family, laughter and love.
Her latest comedy drama is ITV1’s The Fattest Man In Britain.
Last month I spoke to cast members, including Timothy Spall, and co-author / producer Jeff Pope.
TIME to get serious as we approach the end.
I’m sure you are as shocked as I am to discover that next in line is episode seven.
Of eight.
You wait a year – or even longer – to see the new series of Spooks.
And then in a flash…it’s almost over.
HARRY Potter star Imelda Staunton is back in the delicious return of Cranford this Christmas.
Making a valid point about the cast of veteran actresses when we met last month.
“I don’t think we’d have got the parts if we had been Botoxed,” she said.
THE caption appears seconds in to episode six:
“MI5 Safe House, SE16.”
It’s almost panto season, so shall we all shout this together?
TRIBUTES are pouring in after the death today of Coronation Street star Maggie Jones.
The actress, who played battleaxe Blanche Hunt, died in hospital this morning.
As her agent Katie Threlfall said: “Maggie was a rare treasure.”
Much loved, Maggie will be much missed – on screen and off.
THE interview scene running through Margot is a clever dramatic device.
Former Shameless star Anne-Marie Duff is dazzling as magical Margot Fonteyn.
And she was suitably poised when I met up with her for today’s interview here.
Anne-Marie made a number of interesting points which I couldn’t squeeze into the feature.
So allow me to place them here for those who want to read more.
MORRISSEY on a desert island?
You may have just heard him interviewed by Kirsty Young on Radio 4’s Desert Island Discs.
I was lucky enough to be given a preview copy of the programme.
JUST the briefest of glimpses.
But I’m so glad the humble cake stand is making a comeback, both on screen and off.
Not that Ros finds time to nibble a Fondant Fancy when she meets up with her former MI6 mentor Jack Coleville.
