I was thinking more like Divine Brown.

And so was I. And I’m from the future.

And that multiple storylines thing is getting tired too. Interestingly the same studio that made this drivel told George Lucas (who invented the format with American Graffiti) that you just can’t have numerous different storylines with lots of different characters - and then they made this after Graffiti become a hit!

As well as being a particularly splendid Zombie resurrection, I’ve got to ask how you conclude that Lucas invented the use of multiple storylines in a film. Tales of Manhattan, for example, predates American Graffiti by nearly 30 years.

In the interim I have seen the film. The bit about the lobster was funny. Everything else, not so much.

Mind you, I think Grant’s best role to date has been “angry celeb taking the Murdochs and the paps down a peg at the Leveson inquiry”. That was awesome.

And I get the impression that Martine thinks this is her “big break”, whereas I’m guessing it’s the last nail in her acting coffin (the one with the brass plaque reading “Cheeky Cockney Lass-type” on it). Considering that she’s already killed off her singing and stage acting careers (and her Eastender character) in very short order, I give it eight months before we see her on The Bill.

Pretty spot on. Her biggest recent role has been advertising yogurt. She did crop up on Midsomer Murders last night though – as first corpse.

I don’t think she ever made it to The Bill though, which has also died in the interim.
