Celine, when she does a show, is the only person I know who consistently manages to get most of her friends to come and see it, even if the last one she did was two weeks before, through her charming and sweetly relentless emailing and facebook posting, texting, ringing people up, charming them into it. It's lucky that she's an excellent actress, very watchable, and has comic timing most performers would give a limb for. Speaking of giving limbs, she's just given two of hers a serious beating to pound London's pavements for seven or eight hours last night (she will announce her time, no doubt, when she wakes up after a well-deserved long sleep). She did it for cancer research, in honour of some loved ones and some loved ones of some loved ones, and lots of people she will never meet.
She walked a whole, actual marathon for Cancer Research. She trained for months, walking to work in Central London from West Ealing and doing all sorts of other things, and all this squeezed in around a full time job, international travel, rehearsing for a play and loving all her friends like a good'un.
I love this woman. She inspires me. I was grateful for her already - she's one of the best people to speak to when you need someone to boil things down and tell you it straight - she's amazing! Now I'm even more so. Pudding, I salute you. Keep being your brilliant self, keep walking, keep shining. I love you!
