Lots of photos from the filming of "Ripper Street"

Lots of GORGEOUS new photos of the filming of "Ripper Street" have surfaced, including many with Matthew Macfadyen.

The caption reads ""Ripper Street" is currently using a Dublin army barracks and the area in and around Dublin Castle to re-create London's East End in 1889. In this scene a murder has happened in an alley way of a young girl who has had her throat cut. Dublin, Ireland."

Warning Spoilers!

Edit: the Daily Mail now has an article about the same photos.

Bonnets in the bedroom? Banned from the Gym?

Some funny comments made by Keeley Hawes about her husband, Matthew Macfadyen, have been printed recently and worth repeating here:

 

Keeley Hawes: “I asked him if I should go to the gym and he said, 'Everyone could be a little bit more toned,’” she recounts. “I thought, 'Thank you very much!’ I expected him to say 'Of course not, my darling, you look perfect the way you are.’”

Matthew has now banned Keeley from the gym. According to Keeley:  "I did go to the gym for two weeks, but then Matthew said I had to stop as I was looking too muscly."

Keeley has always loved costume dramas, saying: "They've always been in my life. And obviously I'm married to Matthew.  One or the other of us is always doing something in a bonnet. Well, not Matthew! That's behind closed doors."
