Is it just me or has Carrie lost weight? And looking better than she has for a while?
I love the fact that she’s such an anglophile. LKily Allen – music apart, which I think is pants – is an absolute darling, and Stephen Fry is a certified genius and national treaure.
And go on YouTube, Russel Brands new Radio 2 advert is hilarious.
Looking forward to this. I wonder if Graham Norton is in it?

My wife is a big Jane Austen fan, and I’m a huge Star Wars fan. Two great tastes that taste great together! I’m always glad to see crossovers with the SW universe.
