In a bold move which signals considerable ambition, Lily Allen, 38, will play Hedda Gabler in a new adaptation of Ibsen's play titled Hedda, by British director Matthew Dunster. It will be only her third stage role, following a well-received stint in 2:22 A Ghost Story - in which she was directed by Dunster - and a slightly less well-received performance in Martin McDonagh's The Pillowman. Ingrid Bergman, Peggy Ashcroft, Maggie Smith , Diana Rigg, Cate Blanchett , Glenda Jackson and Rosamund Pike have all played Ibsen's manipulative, tragic heroine.

The film depicts the events of 48 hours. Bernie, 89, is retired, and in a small apartment in Hove, East Sussex, he and his elderly wife Rene, short for Irene, are really old and obviously not concerned about a single bit.'Bernie' is 89. He was a leading seaman during the D-Day tumult, and he was tasked with allowing tanks to the beach during the disaster. So he's rather miffed to learn he's applied too late to join a Royal British Legion trip to France on the 70th anniversary of the landings.

The Great Escaper: According to BRIAN VINER, there are plenty of things in this heartwarming film to prick your tear ducts

Bernard Jordan, an 89-year-old Second World War II veteran, captured the public imagination almost as well as Captain Tom Moore later did. He left his care home in Hove, without alerting the workers, and travelled by himself to Normandy for the 70th anniversary of D-Day commemorations (bottom right). By the time 'Bernie's' arrived home, much to his surprise (but not entirely to his delight), he had made news and television bulletins around the world. Even if the film weren't perfectly cast, it would be a moving story, with Sir Michael Caine (top right) coming out of retirement to play the title role and late Glenda Jackson (left), playing his ailing wife Rene. Both are fantastic, with some attaining the alchemy whereby, although we all know we're watching two mighty old troupers at work, they fully inhabit their characters. And if the long-distance romance between the tough old sailor Bernie and the fierce yet lovable Rene (pair pictured inset) doesn't prick your tear ducts, there's plenty in this heartwarming film that will.
