Gavin and Stacey

The Star is reporting

COMEDY star James Corden is to marry blonde lover Sheridan Smith.

We haven’t seen this reported anywhere else, but if it’s true, we are over the moon. Although the idea of Smithy and Rudi Smithy getting it on is a bit weird, it might make an interesting storyline for James and Ruth to add to the new series!

In the same story The Star confirms

James is due to start filming a new series of BBC Three comedy Horne & Corden with his pal Mat Horne the week after next.

UPDATE: Now magazine says

James Corden’s rep has rubbished reports the star’s to wed his girlfriend Sheridan Smith.

More bad news this morning I’m afraid. As reported in The Sun

The new series of Gavin and Stacey has been cut from seven to six episodes.

James Corden and Ruth Jones — who write the comedy hit and star as Smithy and Nessa — are too busy to make the full run.

The Bafta-winning pair said they need the time to work on other projects.

Hopefully they can put extra funny in them to compensate

According to the Stage

Matthew Horne and Imelda Staunton will not be returning to the stage for tonight’s performance of Entertaining Mr Sloane at the Tragalgar Studios.

Producers have confirmed that the two lead actors of the show have caught a virus and will be unable to perform tonight.

According to the Guardian

Actor Mathew Horne collapsed on stage during a matinee performance of Entertaining Mr Sloane in London today.

Fellow actor Simon Paisley Day called for doctors in the house at Whitehall’s Trafalgar Studios as Horne lay prone for 10 minutes before paramedics arrived, reports suggested.

UPDATE

According to the BBC

Horne fell to the floor in the middle of a scene where he lay for 10 minutes before paramedics arrived to take him to hospital. He was later released.

His spokesman said he collapsed after working flat out for three months.
