Yeah, they do look a bit like lost souls staring back at you. I think the best stuffed animals are the ones just curled up asleep.

It was the first one I did. We filmed in Vancouver. They put us up in this lovely five-star hotel. I got to the set and the trailer was huge, and the director bounced up to me and asked if everything was OK. I said, “The trailer’s bigger than my hotel room,” and he said, “Do you want a bigger hotel room?”

Well, I found out that Ben Stiller’s trailer was bigger than mine and I stormed off. The director made us swap.

Well, no. I tried to distance myself. The show has had time to grow and find its own feet. Rather like America being part of England. We started it off, and now they’re doing well without us.

Exactly. It’s like a son you didn’t think would amount to anything. You don’t like the way he’s made his money, but at least he’s doing well. You’d rather he’d become a lawyer or doctor, but he owns a casino.

They’ve given me the keys, but I haven’t used them yet. I don’t think they lock Slough. I think they leave it open.

It’s time once again to fight through the never-ending lava flow of celebrity gossip by relating the hottest news in the fewest possible words. In this installment: curtains for Pam and Kid Rock, cocktails for Danny DeVito and handcuffs for Snoop Dogg.

Back in the Dogg Pound

Three months, three arrests:

How does Snoop spell ‘bail’? Bizzle-

A-Izzle-Lizzle.

This Marriage is Sacked

Borat strikes again,

And a timeless love bursts, like

Bubbles in a tub.

Poor drunken Danny–

It’s all Clooney’s fault. And yet,

Hooray for YouTube!

At last, Nicole Richie has her three archenemies right where she wants them. One car, no brakes–and not a hint of suspicion.

In a gesture of holiday good will, Lindsay, Britney and Paris all pile in together so the paparazzi have to force only one car off the road.

Paris tries to smile it off, but Britney’s remark that “it’s so lame that you drive a Kia” really hurt. Lindsay knows the car gets good mileage, but she says nothing.
