What I read is that they are skilled extras - stunt actors, animal handlers, dancers. Someone said they could have flown skilled extras over from India because of the massive Bollywood industry, but the you get into budget constraints I guess. It’s cheaper to tan white animal handlers than fly some over from India and

Perhaps he thought people would jump on him for mansplaining or talking out of place. I’d say it’s a 50/50 bet that if he had made a speech he’d have got his own snarky article on Jezebel.

You can support a cause and have genuine belief in it, yet have trouble thinking up a snappy line when asked on the spot. Harbour is a meandering story teller type, not a super quick one-liner type.

While our societies continue to hold the view that men being ambitious and chasing more money is all things positive and masculine, but women being ambitious and chasing money is seen negatively and is not feminine, this will continue to be a problem. A big study on negotiating pay raises came to the conclusion that

They had to choose that year to honour Kirk Douglas? I get that he’s about to die, but with all the nasty stories about him abusing women, it feels like someone’s idea of a sick joke. And to top it off, Ewan McGregor thanked the woman he left “after she stood by him for 22 years” and their four daughters who

It’s their industry. Why should the sex who have typically been the victims of harassment and abuse stay away? And bear in mind that not everybody will have shared their #metoo’s. It’s very possible that some women who will be mocked for attending are survivors of abuse. Let’s try to keep the spotlight where it

What baffles me is that the roots of this seem to be in religion. Christians waving bibles. Their sacred guide to life and living which pays almost no attention whatsoever to abortion, except to advise that if a man “feels jealous”, he should give his wife a drink to bring on termination and if the pregnancy does

Oh I refuse to believe she was all bad. My one and only claim to fame is that she once stopped my mother in the street and told her she had a beautiful baby. That was me! There are only a handful of times someone has called me beautiful so I cherish that one, pathetic as it might be...

The female Depp, basically. Maybe not a coincidence, they shared a screen and a director for so long...

Emma traded up with Greg Wise. He’s a drip, but a better looking drip than Branagh.

I’ve had a plumber explain my hot water heater issues to a random male acquaintance who he knew did not live in my home, and the ultimate was a delivery driver who attempted to get a signature from my postman even though I was standing right there and the package was addressed to me - and the postman actually went to

If one of those white dudes was George R R Martin, I’d be happy. The writing on the last season was utter shit compared to the early seasons.

You have pushed so many of my SW fangirl buttons... I am irritable and if I could unsub from you I would be doing that. So there.

A beautiful town... There’s a beautiful castle and a few other beautiful bits that also belong to the Royals, the rest is down-trodden and depressed. The castle itself is surrounded by KFCs and MacDonalds. Just saying, if anyone here was thinking of going to Windsor for the wedding, the general surroundings will

Hey now, don’t be silly. This poor man is clearly not WHITE FEMINISM. Leave him and his charming lyrics alone.

I was described as half-caste by family, friends, and teachers in the 80s. It was normal then, it wouldn’t have occurred to me to be offended. Now it’s considered offensive by most. I guess I could spend the rest of my life feeling aggrieved and setting out to shame the surviving offenders, but it would be a waste of

No. I always thought Brad Pitt looked like a rat (not a cad, a rodent). And I found Johnny Depp unattractive years before it was official. There are just a lot more men in movies than women, so if you’re that way inclined you have plenty of choice.

His voice has a Kermit quality, but it doesn’t put me off. By the way, can anyone tell me where his accent is from? I’m not American and his accent sounds different to all the others I’ve heard on-screen.

How do you find him insufferable? He seems very inoffensive to me. If he’s not talking about acting, he’s talking about his charity work. That’s pretty much it. He comes across as kind of worthy and boring, but considering his friendships with people like Lena Dunham maybe that was a deliberate choice.

Meghan’s swirly poop hat must have shot into second place behind the toilet seat hat. I’m surprised at her, I thought she had better style.
