So sad to hear the news that Ray Stevenson, our Pullo in Rome, has passed away. A brilliant, gutsy, larger-than-life actor who filled every part he played right up to the brim. My thoughts are with his family, his lovely wife Betta and their beautiful kids. What a loss.
Good night sweet Prince.
You were the most soulful, beautiful and dangerous of actors. Your spirit and extraordinary talent left an indelible mark on me for which I will always be grateful. Thank you my brother x
I do hope that the good people of North East Somerset send this spineless poseur packing today. He has only ever sown rancid seeds into our national conversation and they always bear the crappest and rankest of fruit.

Trump clearly rattled by protests at over 50 locations in the U.K. today , feels βunwelcomeβ in London (go figure) and is annoyed as fuck at the Trump Baby Blimp. So, protest, resist, manufacture that ballon and fly it anywhere he can see it, all over the world.
I never understand this. In the U.K. I have never had to wait longer than 5 minutes to vote. Shouldnβt the Greatest Democracy In The World be a lot better at democracy?

This is great! @EmmaKennedy Someone on Quora asked "Why do some British people not like Donald Trump?" Nate White, an articulate and witty writer from England wrote this magnificent response.
Boy, reading this is like reading what itβs like to be stalked. Except in this case the stalker is The President of The United States. Lisa Page is a brave woman.

Merry Christmas to all of you lovely people! I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday season. Hold closely those you love. Eat well. Lie brilliantly when you open a present youβre not enamoured with. And laugh, a lot.
Hereβs something I donβt understand @OliverDowden Itβs ok to be 4 inches away from a total stranger in seat 36b on a 10 hour flight to LA but I canβt book a ticket in the stalls of a theatre for a performance lasting 3 hours. Where is the consistency in that?
Happy Birthday to Mark Antony, born on14 Jan 83BC. His mother Julia Antonia was a cousin of Julius Caesar.Β Part of the 2ndTriumvirate -with Octavian & Lepidus. General & politician. He married 5 times including to Octavia Minor & Cleopatra. @JamesPurefoy portrays him in HBO #Rome

It is in this moment, as the virus gushes from his stupid mouth, that we know he has learnt precisely nothing from his experience. For the sake of all of us America, vote the moron out.
We have an eerie treat for you. On Christmas Day, just after the Kingβs Speech, Charles Dickenβs great short story The Signalman gets a brilliant and spooky new @BBCRadio4 adaptation by @JHollowayPlays.
The great Sam West is The Signalman. I am The Visitor. We hope you enjoy it..
Not a bad view from my dressing room just outside #PortIsaac where we have started filming the sequel to #FishermansFriends. Thereβs life in these old sea dogs yet!

Fortunately, zero side-effects from 2nd jab. Unlike the 1st one when I had to retire to bed with a splitting headache and a high fever. Wife informed me in the morning that I had spent much of the night singing Edelweiss in a high vibrato. Go figure.. #GetVaccinatedASAP
I'd like to dedicate this afternoon's performance of the Scarlet Pimpernel on @BBCRadio4 to our mother, Clare, who left us very peacefully on Friday morning. 280 characters is nowhere near enough to do her justice. Suffice to say we will miss you Mama. Terribly x
I know Iβm late to the party but Happy New Year to all. After all that Stilton and Port I was convinced I had gout. But youβll be happy to know I didnβt. Just stubbed my toe after too much Sloe Gin.
How fucking dare you. This is a fucking coup. I know it, we know it, you and your inbred upper-class wankers know it. If you do this and we leave without a deal millions of our peoples will be ruined in this generation and generations to come.
Itβs incredibly gratifying that people are enjoying #ADiscoveryOfWitches so much. A tip of the hat to our brilliant director on Episode 6, Jonathan Teplitzky. Great job JT!
So, here we go.
Iβm very much looking forward to joining this incredible creative team and bringing Stefan Skellen to life. Heβs a great character!
EXCLUSIVE: #TheWitcher Season 4 has cast Sharlto Copley the infamous bounty hunter Leo Bonhart, James Purefoy as the high-ranking spy Skellen and Danny Woodburn as fan favorite Zoltan.
