Sending very many Happy Birthday wishes to Matthew Macfadyen as he turns 44 years old today! With love from all his fans on the website and forum.
Yahoo has shared a video of Matthew with Stephen Mangan, being interviewed this morning on Sky News. You can watch the video at this link.
Matthew mentions Ripper Street possibly being renewed, but did not confirm it as fact. According to TV Tango, Ripper Street will return to BBC America on Saturday 22nd February at 9pm.
Photographer Clara Molden took photos of director Sean Foley as well as the two leads of Perfect Nonsense, Matthew Macfadyen and Stephen Mangan. One of the photos was first posted in the Telegraph.
The rest of the images are viewable on Camera Press (search "perfect nonsense") or Redux Pictures (search "perfect nonsense").

The BBC Media centre has Ripper Street as one of the unplaced programmes for broadcast, for the week beginning 26th October.
Jack The Ripper may be fading into memory now, but East London has found no peace; H Division’s beat is more chaotic and lawless than ever. So when a sergeant from Limehouse’s neighbouring K Division is found, hurled from a Whitechapel tenement window on to the iron railings below, Reid is quick to act. If the police are to be so publicly assaulted on his streets, what hope for law-abiding civilian life?
Investigations into the man’s activities lead them to the newly emergent Chinatown of the Limehouse dockside; and from there into the orbit of K-Division’s Inspector Jedediah Shine. Shine’s conviction is that his sergeant has fallen victim to a Triad turf-war in this new market, but Jackson discovers evidence of a newly synthesised and devastatingly powerful opiate that leads Reid to different conclusions. And a dread fear that a new kind of hell is to be released on to his streets.
The Telegraph has shared this gorgeous new photo and great interview with Matthew, Stephen Mangan and Sean Foley.
Matthew Macfadyen will bring to his Jeeves the same still poker face he deployed to such effect in Spooks, but having starred in Private Lives (opposite Kim Cattrall), he also knows about stage mayhem. So that’s all tickety-boo. But there is a twist. In what is being billed as An Evening with Jeeves and Wooster, there is just one other actor in the cast. So in this adaptation of The Code of the Woosters — the one with the cow creamer — who is going to play Roderick Spode, Sir Watkyn Bassett, Gussie Fink-Nottle, Stiffy Byng and, with no actress on the payroll, the redoubtable Aunt Dahlia? The answer is that the ever resourceful Jeeves will, with the help of his valeting colleague Seppings. He will also supply set, costumes and lighting.
