Mostly the same stuff as the other interviews, but quite sweet about them singing the song from Frozen

She says she didn't like her wedding outfit but I think she looks great . Hope it all goes upwards and onwards for her .

Hi Ellie and Den, thanks again Ellie for the articles. I am hoping to watch Mr Selfridge somehow, can get Bbc not sure about ITV
Den I also watched the match and thought of you. It was a bit strange as he was pretty much ahead throughout the match, but because he blew crucial chances it felt like he was losing. He managed an Impressive claw back in the 4th. I don't think I have seen such a complete destruction of a tennis racket, when his opponent realised he had blown his advantage.
On subject, dimitrov would be a nice addition to Strictly,
Christmas new year break still sort of lingering on here as our oldest son keeps putting off his departure date to cold foreign lands. I keep killing the fatted calf to say goodbye and at the last minute he changes his mind (3 times so far, getting expensive) I am obviously not charging enough. I shouldn't moan as I won't see him for a year after this.

I suppose its not what people would choose to get married in these days, but I think she makes it work
Must admit I don't watch much tennis apart from Wimledon, but I like Andy Murray - glad he is doing well.

Sometimes ITV shows turn up on Youtube - I know Kara's Lewis episodes were on there for a while.

I just had a look at a pic - I agree I don't think we've had a male tennis player before (apart from Andrew Castle, I suppose)

Posted this for the pic rather than article, haven't got access to Sunday Times, but it looks to be the same words, already printed else where.

Think Kara looks good in this picture, her headdress isn't swamping her so much, but looking upwards helps.

Thanks Karma, nice pic I haven't got access to the Times either. I think it must become quite difficult to think of different things to say when you're doing so many interviews and they're all asking the same questions.

Yes, that's a better photo - the lighting is better than in most of the publicity shots as well.

Yes it must be difficult to say the same thing in different ways! Some seem to be individual interviews, while others perhaps, a cut and paste job, from other articles.

Leon looks so much taller in that photo, must be the morning suit improving his posture and hairstyle! I thought he looked average height or on the shorter side, when he was sitting down being interviewed.

Yes he is rather handsome. He is the boyfriend of Maria Sharapova ..doubt she'd allow him
Nice to know your able to see the tennis . Poor racket but he was very pumped up youth

Looks like Kara was destined to marry a Russian after all .......... Loving her in Mr Selfridge

Well I enjoyed the show, even if the RT reviewer wasn't happy with the accents. Bit more behind the scenes footage too.

Just finished watching on delay - I enjoyed it too. I thought their American accents were fine - I thought Kara's was maybe a bit better than Hannah's because her character is a bit more softly spoken so it seemed subtler. I can see what the reviewer means about Zoe's Russian accent - but from what they've all said in interviews I think that's how the character is meant to be - a bit over the top? I couldn't work out if Serge was supposed to have an accent, or just speaks Russian occasionally? I do think Jeremy Piven is going to need to let some grey show through in his hair soon, so the age difference with his children doesn't look too weird

Very elaborate wedding - I can see why Kara doesn't feel she needs a big do after that

Thanks Ellie a bit more positive. Yes I was quizzical about Serge's accent from Leon's interview, I thought he would be doing the same as Zoe, not the odd word here and there. My issue with Jeremy is not the age thing but make up that looks a bit too faux tan, it particularly stands out with everyone else being pale and interesting!

Yes, he does look a little bit 'just flown in from LA'

The Daily Mail gave it 4 stars and didn't mention the American accents - I think its just a bit weird for people used to seeing her in Eastenders (I gave up watching that show years before Kara joined so not a problem for me). As Leon actually took Russian lessons, I assume he's going to do more than shout that toast at the wedding, unless he's just very 'method'

It is saying in the ratings that Last Tango in Halifax came out better than Mr S, shame they pit them against each other really. I haven't watched Eastenders for a few years but I used watch Kara as Dawn Swann, so I remember her with a strong accent! Yes think I was aware that Kara was speaking with an American accent and I did have to get past that. Well let's see if Leon suddenly switches into a Russian accent, rather than a smattering here and there.

Yes, I suppose it was better than going up against Call the Midwife though. I think Last Tango finishes next week so will be interesting to see how it does after that. I don't really understand how it works with ratings - I don't know how much the UK ratings affect things if they sell it to over 100 other countries. They seem to be going ahead with the 4th series, which I suppose makes sense as they know they are finishing it after that anyway.

I managed to get into itv player today hoping to download the first episode. However you can only watch it directly, so will try again when I have the time, usuall when I am ironing.
Was a bit concerned about watching the fittoussi guy in two dramas at once, but luckily he seems to have been killed off in the Spiral, despite surviving the Ist world war in Mr Selfridge.

That's good I didn't realise you could watch ITV player outside the UK. Will look forward to your thoughts on accents/tans etc.
