STAND BY YOUR NAN!
Miss the phenomenal flick Belfast at your peril! Set in 1960s Northern Ireland, it’s the story of The Troubles seen through the eyes of young Buddy – drawn from Sir Kenneth Branagh’s own coming of age. Belfast-born Jamie Dornan stars as Buddy’s dad with Dame Judi Dench as his nan. ‘We had a time when our grandparents lived with us in an annexe for our house in Belfast,’ Jamie tells me. ‘We would literally – it sounds like Mary Poppins – get a spoon of brown sugar if you popped around at a certain time.’
