Sue Holderness: Last News

EXCLUSIVE: AMC Networks’ Acorn TV and Channel 5 are serving up a third season of The Madame Blanc Mysteries.

Prince Harry, 38, and wife Meghan Markle, 41, are mistaken in their allegations that there is racism within the Royal Family.She has blasted their Netflix series, declaring it "jolly tedious" and adding that she hadn't watched a "single second" of it, as she believes it to be rooted in negativity."Six hours of doom and gloom!" she groaned, acknowledging that Harry is "probably quite unhappy".Yesterday, it was revealed that the Prince is desperate to reunite with his brother and father and bury the hatchet - but many critics have countered that the public nature of their Netflix documentary may not be the best way to achieve peace.Not only will Sue not be watching their series, but she's not keen on purchasing Harry's much awaited autobiography, Spare, either."[The Netflix show] would be six hours of my life pretty much wasted," she declared, adding that when it comes to his tell-all book, she'll simply read the excerpts from the newspapers."You just read the juicy bits, don't you?" she mused."I haven't got enough life left to waste on Harry's book, I'm afraid!"Harry reportedly demanded an apology over how Meghan was allegedly treated during her time as a working royal, before the pair moved to the USA.When the couple saw that Ngozi Fulani had received an apology and resignation from Lady Susan Hussey over being asked where she was "really from", in a reference to her ancestry, they had apparently sought the same response from the royals.However, no comment has been made publicly, perhaps due to the motto within the family of "Never complain, never explain" - and a rift remains open between them.Yet Sue has made it clear that her loyalties lie with King Charles, insisting that in her eyes, the family "isn't remotely

When the alligator was let off its leash, it seemingly hadn't been hungry enough to be distracted by the food, and instead of stopping by the bowl it simply kept walking.Sue recalled she was alone in the forest, as Del and Rodney had gone on ahead, leaving her within two feet of a menacing looking alligator.Fortunately, a crew member acted fast to avert the danger by "grabbing its jaws shut".Even worse, Sue admitted despite the potentially perilous lengths she went to in order to film, "at the time, [the episode] wasn't well received".Fortunately, she says the tables have since turned and "now people think of it as one of the most loved episodes".Meanwhile, in spite of her terrifying alligator encounter, Sue has warm and fond memories of her time on Only Fools and Horses - even though that wasn't the only difficult encounter she remembered."[In one episode], the BBC had to hire a boat and get an actor on the oil rig," she recalled.However, everyone suffered a bout of terrible seasickness, with co-star David Jason "looking green and feeling like death".Away from sitcoms and onto reality television, the veteran actress revealed she has been asked to take part in an ITV favourite.Sue said producers of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! "enquire most years" about whether she'll take part.In spite of their interest, she's adamant that "nothing could persuade" her to join the campmates, even though she is often glued to the screen from the comfort of her home."There isn't enough money in the world to persuade me to do I'm A Celebrity," she declared."The thought of those creepy crawlies! I'm a terrible wimp."She added: "It makes me queasy just thinking about it.

Sue has promised readers that they can witness "silly jokes, wonderful costumes and music, spectacular dancing [and] kids in the audience shouting 'Boo!'"She predicts that they will be "singing along and screaming their heads off" as the action progresses.There are also surprises in store among the "fantastic cast", as Sue reveals that the two ugly sisters will no longer be played by men, as had previously been tradition."There are two girls doing it this year and they're not ugly at all!" she disclosed.She added that the shows have already "put people in the Christmas spirit".This isn't Sue's first experience being cast in Cinderella, as she previously played Dandini years earlier, a part which she combined an "exotic tap dance" into her performance.However, this could be viewers' last chance to catch her in a festive panto role in the next couple of years, if she decides to fulfill her fantasies of a faraway getaway next season."I'd rather like to go to the Caribbean [next] Christmas," she declared."I've always loved Barbados and Antigua, so that's what I'll aim for...

Royal Family.The "profound royalist" spoke passionately about her love for Britain's most well-known family, and insisted none of its members was "remotely racist" as she addressed Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's recent Netflix docuseries."I love William and Kate - I don't think Kate's put a foot wrong," she commented.Sue, who is famed for her former role as Marlene Boyce in Only Fools and Horses, added: "I've been lucky enough to meet every single member of the Royal Family.There's nothing remotely racist about [them]."The actress added that she was "gripped" by Meghan and Harry's story, but wouldn't be reading the latter's forthcoming book, Spare, instead planning to check out the newspapers to read the "juicy" excerpts from it.Sue elaborated: "I haven't got enough life left to waste on Harry's book, I'm afraid!"Despite that, she sympathised with him saying she felt "sorry" for him as she believes he is "probably quite unhappy".Meghan and Harry previously stated that an unnamed member of the Royal Family had speculated over what colour her then-unborn son Archie's skin colour might be, causing the couple distress.The statement from the Palace said that "recollections may vary", but during the pair's Netflix documentary, Harry suggested that the family has "unconscious bias" - amid reports the Sussexes would like an apology.She is a fan of the others in the family - and it seems the feeling is mutual, as Buckingham Palace officials are known to have previously requested advance copies of the episodes to be delivered for their viewing pleasure."I'm profoundly royalist - what a wonderful King Charles is going to be! William will back him up [and] it's something to be treasured," she exclaimed.Sue also praised the
