We picked Jilly Cooper as one of our Top 10 chick lit precursors on the basis of her "name" books and now I hear that one of those very books - Octavia - is being brought to life on ITV.
Tamsin Egerton is Octavia. Richard Coyle (who* I love) is Gareth. And Patrick Baladi (who* everyone loves, don't they?) is in it too. [via Phillipa Ashley]
*I think these "whos" should probably be "whoms", but I write the way I talk (mostly) and I would never say "whom"...
