What Are Your Favourite TV Stars Up to? ; Switched On

DOCTOR Who star David Tennant has backed a campaign opposing cutbacks at his former drama school. The actor said he found the prospect of cuts at the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama “deeply upsetting”.

EMMERDALE actress Sammy Win ward prefers “understated glamour” to a full-on sex kitten look. Sammy – who lost out on the title of Sexiest Female at the recent British Soap Awards – said: “I try not to be too in your face.”

AGOVERNMENT minister let slip that Gordon Brown could star in an Apprentice-style TV show for young politicians. Producers have approached the PM to act as a judge, saying he could become “more popular than Alan Sugar”.

HOLLYOAKS stalwart Matt Littler – who has played Max Cunningham for more than 10 years – has announced he is leaving the show.

Producers are promising that his exit will be “very dramatic” and will tie in with Max’s wedding to Steph.
