Peter Purves
Earlier this week, we went to the press launch of Peter Purves’ autobiography, Here’s One I Wrote Earlier, which also took place on his 70th birthday.
As a birthday present, we presented him with several of his reviews from his career, from his days in repertory theatre, through to his work as a TV actor, as well as his days in Doctor Who and Blue Peter. The article that really excited him was a review of The Girl in the Picture, broadcast in 1964.

Patina Miller
This young US actress will shortly be taking to the stage at the London Palladium to play Deloris van Cartier, the lounge singer who has to hide out in a convent after witnessing a murder, when Sister Act opens later this year.
We caught up with Patina to talk about her previous acting roles, including a stint on US soap All My Children and her involvement with the earlier versions of Sister Act when it played in Pasadena and Atlanta.
We also discuss a YouTube performance of a song called Random Black Girl, composed by her drama school contemporaries Michael Kooman and Christopher Dimond:
