  Mark Lawson Talks To Celia Imrie
  
  BBC Four, Sunday 8 February, 8-9pm
  
  From Calendar Girls to Cranford, Celia Imrie has been a familiar face on both TV and film for more than four decades.
  
  Ahead of her latest cinema release The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, and the publication of her first novel Not Quite Nice, the actress talks to Mark Lawson about her life and career.

  Thanks for the heads up. Am a fan of Celia. Cheers.

  Mmm.. Always liked our Celia.
  
  The producer of this programme knew how to feature her best assets. I guess so did she, but who would blame her, or complain?

  Yet again with these interviews, one showing only so it's iPlayer for most people I reckon.
  
  Celia was smoking hot in her day. Her, Mirren and Gabrielle Drake - Mighty fine.

  She's one of those rare people it's impossible to dislike, see also Michael Palin, Joanna Lumley, Julie Walters...not Mirren though, she adores herself more than anyone else possibly could.

  watching this......
  
  I noticed Celia quite late as I never used to watch those Bergerac type shows
  
  I didn't really become aware of her until the Victoria Wood years.........I thought she was really hot !

  Never understood the Mirren fuss. Until Prime Suspect, lets be frank, she was famous as upper class totty who got her kit off. Not for her acting ability. Yes, she can act, hardly the acting genius some people think she is.
