Paul’s stale stunt

UMA THURMAN has sent a message to her Instagram followers about harvey Weinstein. She says she hopes he’s suffering for his alleged abuse of women: ‘ happy Thanksgiving everyone! (except harvey . . . I’m glad it’s going slowly — you don’t deserve a bullet.)’

oh dear, using language like that, she sounds like she’s re-enacting a torture scene from the nasty and gratuitously violent Pulp Fiction or kill Bill films that made her a star. Both of which she happened to make with Weinstein. You would expect perfect timing from a prize baker.

So no surprises that just as The great British Bake off’s Paul hollywood has a new Channel 4 show to promote, he cooks up fresh headlines by announcing the end of his 20-year marriage.

It’s all about his favourite subject — him!

In Paul hollywood: A Baker’s Life, his account of his ‘struggle’ to become a multi- millionaire TV star, he fails even to mention his betrayed wife, Alex.

Instead, he complains he was branded a traitor for defecting to C4 after they outbid the BBC for Bake off, and he felt abandoned by the show’s presenters, Mel and Sue.

A traitor? Abandoned? Words that must be seared on Alex’s heart.
