^A Spaced Out stake out, I like.
Playbill News -Tony Nominees Offer Their Reactions to Being Honored QUOTE Jessica Hynes, The Norman Conquests: "I was walking around the kitchen, and I had a number on my phone that I didn't recognize. It was the number of the offices at the theatre. I called and said, 'This is Jessica Hynes.' He said, 'Oh, congratulations!' and I said, 'What for?' He hang on, 'I'll put you through.' He put me on to [press agent] Jim Byk. I was just padding around the kitchen recovering. We had a cast get-together last night. I made food, and we all had beers. I was recovering from that, with my children running around. I kind of had a vague idea the nominations were today, but not really. And then we got seven! They should change the name to The Nominations Conquests." Good luck Jessica. |

QUOTE (grumpygit @ Jun 8 2009, 01:43 AM) Bloody Angela Lansbury. 1. She's a national treasure 2. She's eighty three years old, to even be carrying on in stage roles at that age is something to be applauded, let alone being an actress of a high enough calibre to win awards. Whilst the more mature part of my brain knows this is all in jest, theatrically-speaking those two are far apart. And Jess has got at least another fifty years to win a Tony, an Emmy and BAFTA so ner
