Katherine Parkinson

Amelia Mulgrew, played by Penelope Wilton.

Isola Pribby, played by Katherine Parkinson.

yeah

uh eben ramsey played by tom

And she was really proud of it, but only like 23 people ever bought it.

Not the big series that she's written and has got all her fame and money from.

So she takes this Anne Bronte biography and they have like a wonderful kind of debate about who was more... progressive was it anne bronte or emily bronte and then we've got katherine parkinson stands up and does like the speech from jane eyre yeah um so i like the kind of like the feminist literary

passion debate that they have in this part of the film yeah you can see that yeah and it's a shame because this this first opening meeting this that's going wonderfully well with all of them and how taken Juliet is with them, she almost forgets and she acknowledges that she'd forgotten by the end of the meeting.

But the synopsis makes it clear that the corporate warfare is secondary to the romance.

Fans are rabid for the forbidden love stories between Taggy and Rupert, played by Bella McLean and Alex Hassell, and Freddie and Lizzy, played by Danny Dyer and Katherine Parkinson.

In an era dominated by prestige television that demands deep psychological labor from its audience, Rivals functions as a vital pressure release valve.

It really does.

I got to go in for the recording.

I got to do a little video with Katherine Parkinson for the most recent one.

It was such a fun, interesting way of doing the publishing process that I hadn't had before.

Yeah.

This

is either the sign of someone who knows the show intimately well and therefore knows that you should look everywhere, or it's someone who has never watched the show and just thinks that all the solutions, Catherine Parkinson style, all the solutions are going to be in the one room you're in.

And I worry it's the second one.

I really do.

And it's a great cast.

I mean, you've got Lily James, you've got Mikiel Huseman, Glenn Powell, Jessica Brown-Finley, Katherine Parkinson, Matthew Goode, Penelope Wilton.

Like, you've got a lot of the Downton Abbey cast really are brought out for this one.

With Downton Abbey, we're watching off podcast at the moment.

The Series 3 Last One Laughing line-up has been revealed, Tim.

Lee Mack, Catherine Ryan, Harry Hill, Catherine Parkinson, Michelle De Swart, John Richardson, Morgana Robinson, Josh Jones, Richard Ayoade returning, and Rasheen Conaty... on as a contestant, so Gedders, Mel Gedroych, joins Jimmy Carr as co-host, if you like.

We were particularly delighted.

Look, there's lots of triple A-list comedy heavyweights there, but someone we love, Josh Jones.

Yeah, yeah.

Why would he even think to go outside? Catherine Parkinson did that as well.

Me with go and get your own phone.

Yeah.
