All Of Us Strangers has had viewers in tears since its release back in January with many believing it was overlooked at this year's award season.  The emotional drama starring Andrew Scott and Paul Mescal ties together a beautiful romance with deep grief, as Andrew's character, Adam, remains deeply affected by the death of his parents (Claire Foy and Jamie Bell). Based on the 1987 Strangers by Taichi Yamada, screenwriter Adam struggles to move forward with his life as he remains preoccupied with memories of the past before he meets his mysterious neighbour Harry (Mescal).  

It was about 11pm, just before I got into bed, that I heard a ping from my phone. I assumed it was a text from BA cancelling my flight the next day, but it was an answerphone message with the caller ID coming up 'Unknown'. When I listened, I heard a deep, Northern-accented voice saying slowly and deliberately: 'You haven't got back to me. It's been four weeks. I saw you in that shop that one time. Get back to me NOW!' It was extremely unpleasant. Of course I didn't want to speak with this man and, in any case, with his number withheld, it was impossible to return the call.

Tianfu Guo, 35, was found guilty today at St Albans Crown Court for the part he played in Dylan Huang's terrifying 30-hour ordeal. Mr Huang was playing golf with his PA and two other women at Brocket Hall (pictured) in Hertfordshire when five men jumped out of a car and rushed at him. He was assaulted and bundled into a black Audi Q7 near the seventh hole in broad daylight at gunpoint. Prosecutor Russell Pyne told the court: 'Mr Huang was taken to a property at Thursley near Guildford in Surrey, where was blindfolded and tape was put over his mouth.'

The Tunbridge Wells-born actor admitted he understood the interest in their relationship - but always made it clear that the only person he would ever discuss it with was Taylor herself. 'People on the street wouldn't tell strangers about their personal lives, so why should I', the star of The Favourite and Boy Erased said before they split up last year. But it appears Ms Swift hasn't held back herself with her new record The Tortured Poets Department, which fans believe is the story of their break-up, her brief rebound dalliance with rockstar Matt Healy and meeting new love Travis Kelce . It contains stinging lyrics fans believe suggest Joe was unfaithful when she believed they would marry and have children together. And even its title is being viewed as an attack on her ex-boyfriend and muse, because it is so similar to the name of a WhatsApp group Joe famously shares with close friends and fellow actors Paul Mescal and Andrew Scott called The Tortured Man Club.

I pictured myself as the elegant Bette Davies, always photographed with a cigarette in her hand, writes Jenni Murray. In the early Sixties, it meant becoming one of the cool crowd at school; hiding behind the bike sheds with cigarettes stolen from the packets of the adults we wanted to emulate. By the age of 16, we were old enough to buy them ourselves. And so began a 60-year addiction that at my worst had me smoking more than 20 cigarettes a day.

Andrew Scott has become the subject of a hilarious viral meme.  The Sherlock star, 47, cropped up on Twitter when a user shared a snap with the caption: 'Someone said Andrew Scott looks like Ant and Dec and I can't unsee it'.  An accompanying image showed Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly - leading to uproar from tickled fans who concurred with the statement. 

Andrew Scott has spoken out on his close friendship with his All Of Us Strangers co-star Paul Mescal, calling him ' a wonderful friend.'

Andrew, 47, has now revealed how Paul, 27, played a pivotal role in helping him through a tough time after his beloved mother Nora died suddenly in March, right in the middle of the awards season spotlight. 

After weeks of accolades it was almost inevitable that Sarah Snook might lead the winners as the 2024 Olivier Awards got underway on Sunday evening - and so it proved as the Australian star was named Best Actress, and rightly so. Snook - best known for her starring role in HBO series Succession - scooped the award for her mesmerising one-woman performance in a new West End production of Oscar Wilde's The Picture Of Dorian Gray. The Australian actress takes all 26 roles in the production, among them Basil Hallward, Sibyl Vane and of course Gray himself.

Andrew Scott was in attendance on Sunday evening as the 2024 Olivier Awards with Mastercard got underway at London's Royal Albert Hall.  The fashion-conscious actor is in the running for Best Actor courtesy of his critically acclaimed performance in a contemporary rendering of Chekov masterpiece Uncle Vanya.  And he ensured he caught the eye in another stylish outfit as he greeted onlookers after making his way onto the red carpet shortly after arriving at the London landmark. 

By his own admission, awards season has been bittersweet for Andrew Scott. Currently basking in a flurry of positive reviews for his starring role in a new Netflix adaptation of Patricia Highsmith's The Talented Mr. Ripley, Scott recently collected the Critics' Circle Theatre award for his remarkable performance in a contemporary rendering of Chekhov masterpiece Vanya. But the occasion was tinged with sadness for the Irish star, whose devoted mother Nora passed away with a 'sudden illness' in March - shortly before Mother's Day. And Scott - who dedicated the award to her memory - admits he felt compelled to immerse himself in work following her recent passing.

Dakota Fanning revealed that she got her very first cell phone from Tom Cruise when she was 11-years-old and added that the actor has sent her a birthday gift every year since. The Uptown Girls actress, 30 - who recently stated that she 'only learned to drive four years ago' - opened up about the special gift during a joint interview with her Ripley co-star Andrew Scott for Harper's Bazaar earlier this week. At one point as the two stars quizzed each other, the Irish-born star, 47, was given the question: 'Who gave Dakota her first cell phone?'
