    Julie Walters to play Mo Mowlam - Yahoo! News UK



    Normally I wouldn`t be sure about this but after her performance in `a short stay in Switzerland` I think she can do anything!

    Sorry but I find this casting most insulting to Mo Mowlam's memory. Julie Walters is one of the most over-rated 'actresses' to my mind...

    Are we taking bets on who will play Gerry Adams? My money's on James 'the only actor from Ulster' Nesbitt.

    At least he won't be able to inflict his 'I'm being all hard and mean' designer stubble on us.

    i agree with faginsgirl with this, Julie Walters is a wonerful actress, and she portrayed Mo Molam very well, the drama attracted 3.5 million viewers, making it Channel 4's highest-rated drama since 2001, Mo was nominated for a BAFTA for Best Single Drama,with Julie Walters and Gary Lewis receiving nominations for, respectively, Best Supporting Actor. The Best Actress award was given to Walters.

    I believe it actually won Best Single Drama. A friend was on the committee and did a good job persuading the others that it was head and shoulders above the other nominees.

    Julie did another good job in "The Jury" on ITV last week. In the end it turned out to be another courtroom drama with touches of Twelve Angry Men in the last episode. But for the most part it was all quite competently done

    It's a great format though. Shame we didn't see more of the Julie Walters/Roger Allam combo but that's ensemble drama for you .
