ALEXANDRA SHULMAN: When I was standing in a Copenhagen hotel lobby with a few people before going out for cocktails, the Princess of Wales' cancer diagnosis hit me. The decision of whether it would be a negroni or martini didn't seem so urgent. We were stranded by the news, reading the delicate-looking but immaculate and stunning Princess on our smartphones. It's an irony that a woman we rarely hear speak for long addresses the viewers in a truly majestic way at a difficult time in her life. We were both tearful and shook when she came to us so wonderfully composed.

Yesterday it was revealed that the big beasts ranked as 007 favorites for the past year, Idris Elba, Tom Hardy, Henry Cavil, Henry Cavil, had been dismissed in favour of relative unknown Aaron Taylor-Johnson, 33, who apparently has the contract in his hand. If you want to believe it, 'Bond is Aaron's job,' a source said.' The formal invitation is on the table, and they are waiting to hear back.' If true - and reports are still conflicting - he'll be the eighth actor to step into James Bond's Crockett & Jones Oxford shoes after Daniel Craig vacated them.

Happy Valley actor James Norton, comedian Jason Manford, artist Damien Hirst, and singer Beverly Knight all gave the Labour chief their love. Sir Keir promised that if he were Prime Minister David Cameron, the arts would be "for everyone, everywhere" under a Labour government.

They cited Labour's record in Wales, where they are overseeing'serious cuts to the arts as a result of their financial mismanagement.' Norton, Manford, and Knight appeared in a video to promote Sir Keir's plans, while Hirst pledged his support for Labour's plans.

Now that I can recall, Longleat's balustrades are being rattled by one-time Bond Girl, Jamaican-born bombshell Sylvana Henriques, many decades after she first attempted to photograph Alexander.
