*gag* A second? What on earth? Ah well, I don't have to watch.faceless wrote:yeah, and the worst part is that they've been given a second series...
Another piece of news today is that Ruth Jones is at the Prime Minister's G20 reception dinner tonight... why exactly, I'm not sure.
I wouldn't know why she is there. Is she representing Wales?

Gavin & Stacey Star Horne Collapses On Stage
8:56pm UK, April 02, 2009

Gavin and Stacey comedy star Mathew Horne has collapsed on stage during a performance of Entertaining Mr Sloane in London. The 30-year-old was said to have fallen to the floor 15 minutes into the second half of the show, during a scene with actor Simon Paisley Day.
Paisley Day reportedly called out for any doctors in the house to come forward, with Horne on the stage for 10 minutes before paramedics arrived. Horne was treated where he lay before the manager asked the audience to leave the Trafalgar Theatre.
His publicist Rupert Fowler told Sky News Online the actor did collapse but has since gone home after being treated in hospital. "I think everyone's aware he's been working flat-out over the last three months and he's been suffering a minor case of exhaustion," the publicist said. Mr Fowler said Horne had also been performing on stage "eight times a week", adding: "It's been a lot of work."
A theatre spokeswoman told Sky that Horne would not be starring in the play's next showing. She said understudy Fergus March would be assuming the ailing actor's role as Mr Sloane. After the collapse, co-star Imelda Staunton was said to have walked on to the stage and apologised to the audience for the interruption.

'Is there a doctor in the house?' and 'the show must go on' in the same show? Those wacky luvvies.
