    Gods, June Whitfield…what an absolute joy and treasure she was. 🥰
    I had the great pleasure of being security detail for Ms. Lumley about around 2013 or so, and I have to say that along with Dame Emma Thompson (and her adorable Mother, Phyllida Law!) she’s exactly how you would imagine her to be: affable, graceful and very down to Earth. Super sweet, gorgeous and lovely - all of the above were tbh.
    Another pleasant surprise was Russell Brand. Considering how hyper he is when he’s “on”, he’s such a sweet and gentle guy offstage - when you’re talking with him he’s super-engaged and makes you feel like you’re the only person in the room. That’s not a talent, that’s a gift. He may have gone off the rails a little this past year or two leaning a little too far into conspiracy theories, but I do believe his heart is in the right place and he’ll find his way back. Kindness, empathy, intention and integrity matter - all too often these are rare things to find in show-business sadly.
    Sometimes a famous personality can appear rude or aloof upon first meeting them, but you pick-up quite quickly those whom are just shy, quiet and private or just super-focused on the job ahead. Learning how to navigate that space and be respectful of it was never boring! It’s quite a thing to watch someone be able to switch it on when they need to go to work and head out on stage, which was always kind of magical to witness - a “good” example (although I appreciate at the other end of the “fame” scale!) of this was Roy “Chubby” Brown. While I’m not a fan of his style of humour (or indeed his political views) off-stage he’s the nicest guy - and for someone who swears so much on stage he could make a Sailor blush, he won’t offstage and doesn’t like his crew doing so either.
    Yet these examples aside, there are those that do think themselves above their station and they never fail to stick out like sore thumbs it has to be said.
    Sorry, this post turned out a lot different than intended, but yeah - JUNE WHITFIELD! 💎

    “Claire? We lost her with the franchise” that’s such a time specific joke. For those that don’t know this whole scene is a spoof of the original ITV breakfast service TVam, who produced the original “Good Morning Britain” in the 1980s and controversially lost their broadcasting license in 1992 along with a number of other major ITV stations like Thames.
