Received the HQ pictures from DeWynters/Uli Weber (many thanks to them both for their courtesy) being used to advertise the play - they will be added to the website gallery in due course. There are 4 which have been set to be used for advertising for the play - the 3 already used in many articles/newspapers - and a really great 4th picture which I don't think has been used yet. Lots more pictures taken at the session which I may/hope to be able to add to the site at some point in the future...but will have to see....  |

Great work - well done, Dave ;D Thanks I can't wait to see the fourth photo, and any others you can get your hands on. I've often thought it must be a wonderful job to be a photographer  |

Lengthy and detailed article (definitely worth a read). Holly come lately - can Anna match Audrey?Anna Friel has been cast as the lead in an upcoming stage version of Breakfast at Tiffany's. It's a brave actress who will step into the role immortalised by Audrey Hepburn, says Rhoda Koenig.Source | The Independent UK. An excerpt from the article that caught my eye; Mathias doesn't want to be specific this early, but he has probably noticed that, while Hepburn had long, dark hair, the Holly of the novella had a boyish cut, of "self-induced blonde".Now I'm wondering if they'll require Anna to cut her hair short for the role? In all of the promo shots, her hair is concealed by the hat, they're probably debating on the hairstyle. |

I agree, they definitely had harsh opinions on her fashion choice, but I personally think that her dress was stunningly gorgeous and she looks fantastic in it ! I like how Joseph's dress shirt matches it as well. And I'm guessing David was probably home looking after Gracie. |

Surely the real question is not - 'Does Anna look good in this dress?' - but 'How has she managed to defy the laws of gravity?' ;D BTW, the dress is fine, Anna would look good in a bin bag, but her co-star looks a bit of a fop |

SERIOUSLY. She could pull anything off.
The more and more photos I find of Anna in that gorgeous dress from this party, the more I'm convinced the reporter is probably blind or had a bad week.

Anna Friel is all dressed up for a gem of a role as she recreates Audrey Hepburn classicShe never looked like this in Brookside. This is Anna Friel, lounging provocatively in high heels, a figure-hugging bodysuit - and jewels worth more than £2million.
