Hey that's well spotted moogster.
I see where you are coming from now.
I can see why you say that.
If you put yourself into a mindset where you imagine it was you yourself doing the task,...how natural would it feel to yourself to speak the full name?
You just wouldn't do it if you were genuine in your intentions, it wouldn't feel natural to say.
For Natalie to say "Kate Thornton" instead of just "Kate"...it just isn't a natural way to communicate directly with your friend if they are watching.
Sounds more like she was just desperately namedropping, hoping to gain favour with name association with another celebrity. (Who is actually getting regular work at the moment)
It sounds to me that she added the "Thornton" bit at the end for the benefit of the viewers.
