There has been a lot of talk about a potential Downton Abbey movie after the series comes to an end at Christmas, and some of its stars are definitely up for a return.
Joanne Froggatt and Phyllis Logan - who play Anna Bates and Mrs Hughes in the ITV period drama - told Digital Spy and others that they will be first in the queue if Julian Fellowes decides to bring it back.
6 spoiler-free teasers for Downton Abbey's series 6 premiere
"I definitely would, it would be lovely," said Logan. "Logistically, there's so many of us. Just working everybody's part in it, and where they would be. Several people are going on to other jobs, and who knows what will happen after that.
"Corralling us all is tricky enough for the best of times, but I would be up for it, certainly."
Froggatt added: "Me too, if we can get everybody together again.

Chicago – One of the specialities of HollywoodChicago.com is the film and personality interview. The majority of these chats came through me, Patrick McDonald, and I couldn’t narrow it down to a top 10 or even a top 20. For 2014, there were 25 top interviews, and it is a diverse range of voices.
It is a privilege to get the opportunity to participate in the promotional tours, awards ceremonies, film festivals, book appearances, phoners and other lucky happenstances that feature the notable among us. To whittle down the list, I mostly thought about what was said in these interviews, whether inspirational or provocative – plus the status of the participants, whether they are up-and-coming or established.
The interview highlights are broken down by “Background and Behind-the-Scenes” and the “Memorable Quote” associated with each subject, and are often accompanied with exclusive photography by Joe Arce of HollywoodChicago.com. Four notables who just missed the...

Lord Justice Leveson has released the recommendations of the Inquiry into the Culture, Practices and Ethics of the Press, which was prompted by the Murdoch press phone hacking scandal that erupted last year.
Among the key points is a recommendation for an independent press regulatory that is backed by law.
That suggestion has already been rejected by British Prime Minister David Cameron, citing concern for press freedom but his coalition partner, Lib Dems leader Nick Clegg supports the idea.
British Labour leader Ed Miliband has backed most of the Leveson findings.
Here are some expert responses to the findings:
Andrea Carson, PhD researcher at the University of Melbourne and former journalist at The Age
I think it’s a pretty sound, detailed and clever report. It’s clever in recommending independent self-regulation of the British press but with statutory underpinning.

On April 7, Mike Wallace, the lion of the TV news magazine died. Wallace was more than a news man. He was a former actor and game show host who found a way to seamlessly blend news and entertainment into a combination that was far more than a sum of its parts. Wallace -- first on Night Beat, then on 60 Minutes -- didn't just investigate or report. He turned interviewing into a blood sport -- becoming both one of the most liked and feared men on television as a result. He brought the same intensity and enthusiasm to every interview -- be it entertainers, world leaders or criminals -- even once calling Ayatollah Khomeini a lunatic, to his face.
This got him into trouble at times -- settling a lawsuit with General Westmoreland; losing a battle with CBS over a tobacco industry whistleblower -- but it also made him something rare...
