Daily Mail: Sorry Vanessa!

'Our serialisation of a forthcoming book about the actress Vanessa Redgrave and her family on 7th May included the allegation that she had once found her husband in bed with her father. We accept that this incident did not take place and we sincerely apologise to Vanessa Redgrave and her family for the distress and embarrassment caused.'

Apology in today's Mail. Oops!

• Photograph shows Vanessa Redgrave's visit this week in support of the Dale Farm Travellers. How wonderful to see you still standing by people in trouble.

  1. Vanessa's husband must be one of the few men Sir Michael didn't sleep with. Remember Noel Coward's comment about Redgrave and Dirk Bogarde in 'The Sea Shall Not Have them'?
    "I don't see why not - everyone else has."

  2. Sorry - this hasn't got anything to do with Vanessa Redgrave, but The Daily Mail - I've read a few stories in the last month or so about how they steal photos from people without paying - just came across this recent exchange going around Twitter:
