Kate BeckinsaleKate BeckinsaleYou can keep your sun-drenched beaches of Cali-forn-i-a.

We're happy snuggled up here in drizzly Blighty.

And Kate Beckinsale might just agree with us.

She upped sticks from Blighty to California, for the sake of her acting and then to settle down to married life with her director hubby, Len Wiseman.

But this English rose ain't forgotten which garden she's been uprooted from.

In fact, she rather misses it sometimes.

And she's a girl after our own heart, when it comes to what she misses.

She confessed to the Conde Nast Brides mag: "When anyone goes to England I ask them to bring me back as many bars of Cadbury's chocolate as they can carry.
