2009 BAFTA TV Awards: The Winners
The press room was packed last night as the winners and presenters filed through after presenting and picking up trophies at the BAFTA TV Awards. It was an exciting night for Skins stars Kaya Scodelario and Hannah Murray, who beamed as they held up the only award that BAFTA TV Awards audience had voted for, while Kenneth Branagh held up the Drama series award he picked up for Wallander. Other winners included Harry Hill, David Mitchell, The Bill, Mad Men and The X Factor — what an exciting, star-studded night!

TV Tonight: Great Guest Stars on NBC
Having a new episode of The Office plus a new 30 Rock is enough to make me happy most Thursdays, but tonight's episodes have some special appeal. On 30 Rock, Jon Hamm is back as Liz's neighbor and incredibly understanding date, Drew, while on The Office, Idris Elba starts his six-episode run as a new boss at Dunder Mifflin going toe-to-toe with Michael Scott.
I'm excited to see a comedic side to Elba, who's best known as Stringer Bell on The Wire.
Two Bits of Office-Related News
It's NBC day at TCA, and I'm most looking forward to the session with Amy Poehler, Rashida Jones, Aziz Ansari, and the creators of the non-spinoff spinoff of The Office. The show is still technically untitled, but some bits of the plot have dribbled out thanks to copies of the pilot script that were left in reporters' hotel rooms last night. Meanwhile, The Office mothership is getting an exciting new cast member — well, at least for fans of The Wire.
RocknRolla: Slow to Build With a Rockin' Finish
RocknRolla is extremely similar in tone and format to director Guy Ritchie's other films, and I must say I'm starting to think that his movies are only as good as the actors in them. Snatch is a good ensemble piece overall, but the most memorable parts are due to standout performances by actors like Brad Pitt and Alan Ford. Though not as good a film as Snatch, RocknRolla similarly benefits from some fine performers, in this case Tom Wilkinson, Mark Strong, and Toby Kebbell, among other members of the extensive cast in this convoluted story.
Gerard, Thandie, and Idris RocknRoll Their Way to LA
Thandie Newton was joined by costars Idris Elba and Gerard Butler last night for the LA premiere of RocknRolla. They've been all over to promote the film, from Canada to the UK, and it's finally opening to limited release in the US on Friday. Director Guy Ritchie missed this one, but the cast seems to have gotten pretty close after all that traveling — Thandie and Gerard even shared a few kisses on the red carpet.
Pop Preview: RocknRolla
Guy Ritchie has rolled out his tried and tested (and hugely enjoyable) gangster crime caper formula for his latest offering, RocknRolla.
Like Lock Stock and Snatch before, RocknRolla brings the lives of London's criminals together in a funny, well-acted and entertaining action flick.
It's not just the capital's head mobster (Tom Wilkinson) and right hand man (Mark Strong) who take notice when a Russian billionaire (Karel Roden) arrives in town looking to make a big money land deal; a corrupt councillor (Jimi Mistry), plotting accountant (Thandie Newton), and underworld gang The Wild Bunch (Gerard Butler, Idris Elba and Tom Hardy) all want in on the big bucks too.
Guy Ritchie And Madonna Roll RocknRolla In to London
London's Leicester Square was swarming with gorgeous actors last night, and one rather well known 50-year-old in a Stella McCartney dress (do you love or hate it?), as Guy Ritchie's RocknRolla had its world premiere. Apparently Madonna arrived late because she didn't want to steal the limelight, and when asked about how he made their relationship work, Guy replied: "You've just got to love your wife... Is that boring enough?"
Beyonce Gets Down To Getting Obsessed
Beyonce Knowles handed off her adorable on screen son to costar Idris Elba on the set of Obsessed in LA yesterday. The movie is about an obsessive woman, played by Ali Larter, who tries to get between her boss and his wife, played by Idris and Beyonce. We've seen B's dramatic, musical and even comedic sides, but this will be her first shot testing out her chops in a thriller.
