"What our writers love this week"

Misha Berson of the Seattle Times had the following to say:

"Matthew Macfadyen

He was a smoldering Mr. Darcy in "Pride and Prejudice." Now he is David Frost's anxious TV producer in the Oscar-nominated film "Frost/Nixon" and one of the very few men of honor in Dickensian London on the upcoming PBS television adaptation of "Little Dorrit" (beginning March 29). Oh, and he was swell as a superspy early in the BBC espionage series, "MI-5," too. Now if we could just pronounce the name of this handsome and versatile English actor: Matthew Macfadyen."

(thanks to lizziej for the link)

Misha, you can hear how Matthew pronounces his name below (from the intro to Stories We Could Tell)

Sorry, flash is not available.
