Anne-Marie Duff
REGAL TASTE
“Still cocooned in short days and long nights, I have just finished André Gide’s Strait is the Gate — a tale of spiritual responsibility and the dance of young love. And as a late Christmas present to myself, Close up and Personal, snippets from Catherine Deneuve’s diaries. I guess that’s just the nosey parker in me!”
Anne-Marie Duff is playing Elizabeth I in The Virgin Queen on BBC One.
Martin Jarvis
ON HIS HONOUR
“I never feel happy without several books on the go. These include Sarah Waters’s new novel The Night Watch, set in 1940s London, and Scott Fitzgerald’s wonderfully funny Pat Hobby Stories, tales of a failed screen writer. I shall be directing Alfred Molina in five of these gems, soon to be broadcast on Radio 4.”
