Kerry Katona sobs at 'failing' as mum as she reveals kids' horrific abuse from bullies

Sam Heughan will be back starring as Jamie Fraser in the highly-anticipated return of Outlander later this week.The actor will be appearing in season six of the Starz hit show but has now opened up about his first interaction with the writer of the books.The series was written by American author Diana Gabaldon who wasn’t convinced by Sam at first.She reportedly first called him “grotesque” when she was shown a picture of him ahead of his audition.Sam opened up about this in a new interview, admitting he wasn’t what “she expected.”Asked about being called grotesque, he said: “She did say that.“She saw a photo of younger me when I was a juvenile lead in Second World War stuff and not a Highland warrior from the 1700s.“I wasn’t the Jamie she expected, but when she saw my audition, she thought I transformed into him.”He added to the Radio Times: “You rarely get a chance to play a character like Jamie.“Those kinds of roles don’t come along all the time.”Diana opened up about her first thoughts of Sam when she appeared on the podcast Outcasts.Speaking to actors David Berry and Tim Downie in June 2020, she opened up about this.She said: “Well, you know what he’s like, he’s a total chameleon. He changes with each show for each character.“I was thinking, ‘Well, he doesn’t look like Jamie Fraser except for a little bit around the edges.’“On the other hand, [I thought] he looks really different, so maybe he’ll be fine and of course, he was.“But that was my first reaction.

Killing Eve since the show began in 2018, carrying on the role to the last series airing now.The actress made a revelation in a new interview about an injury she suffered near the end of filming the new series.Fiona has been lauded for her extraordinary performance in the show, even winning an BAFTA TV Award for Best Supporting Actress in 2019.She also received a Primetime Emmy Award nomination for her performance in the second series.Following on, in the third series she was again nominated for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama series.However, while filming the latest series, Fiona fell into a predicament when she broke her leg.Speaking to Radio Times, she said: "If only I could say I was in the air doing a double switchback!"But, no, I was carrying logs down to the kitchen, slipped and landed five stairs down and crushed the top of my knee."She said the whole crew were very helpful at her time in need, even changing scene titles.First of all the scene was titled "Carolyn walks along the road", and was changed to "Carolyn sits on a bench".While she was recovering she stayed at her flat in Manhattan.Fiona originally studied philosophy at university, later attending RADA drama school.She made the leap into Hollywood when she was 28 years old, but was very surprised by the response to her first audition.Speaking to The Guardian in 2021 she said: "I got to Hollywood and they said: 'You’re very old'."I remember thinking, 'S**t, that’s bad'."I think maybe I also thought film was something to do with being pretty."I mightn’t have been wrong, either.

Cosmopolitan UK: “I’m so disconnected from it.“When I get tagged in Cassie’s or Pippa from The Voyeurs’s nudes, it feels like me looking at their nudes, not Sydney’s nudes.“When you film one of these scenes, it is so technical and so not romantic…“When I saw The Voyeurs for the first time, I wondered if I’d done too much.”She continued: “I researched celebrities who have done nude scenes, trying to make myself feel better.“There are hour-long compilations of world-famous male actors with nude scenes who win Oscars and get praised for that work.“But the moment a woman does it, it degrades them…“There’s such a double standard and I really hope I can have a little part in changing that.”Sydney had previously spoken about getting naked and how it affected her reputation as an actress.Speaking to The Independent, she admitted she was “very proud” of her performance in Euphoria, but critics did not talk about it because she had stripped down.Comparing her character in Euphoria to the one she played in comedy-drama show The White Lotus, Sydney said she believed critics were “paying more attention” to the latter despite her “great performance” in the HBO series.She explained: “With The White Lotus, I felt like people were finally recognising the hard work I’ve been doing.“This is something that has bothered me for a while.“I’m very proud of my work in Euphoria.
