Kiefer Sutherland

When it comes to the old moolah, it's fair to say most American TV stars ain't short of a cent or two.

But at the rate they're raking it in right now, we're surprised they need jobs at all.

Oh dear, Jack Bauer has landed in a spot of bother.

Or rather actor Kiefer Sutherland has as he's found himself on the wrong side of the law.

It was a good night for British talent at the Emmy awards, but Ricky Gervais and Helen Mirren weren't the only winners.

Ugly Betty's America Ferrera grabbed herself a piece of mantlepiece candy.

She may play an ugly duckling on Ugly Betty...

But don't pity America Ferrera.

Celebs have been gathering around to pay tribute to the late Princess Diana.

Now, David Beckham has joined the all star line-up for her memorial concert next month.

The Brits were strong at this year's Screen Actors Guild Awards.

It comes as no surprise that Helen Mirren walked away with not one, but two of the night's awards.

Flights from LA to Heathrow may be a little heavier than normal this week.

The reason?

This time last year, Emily Blunt wasn't a name many of us had heard of.

But now she's winning over Hollywood.

The 33rd Annual People's Choice Awards took place in Los Angeles last night.

And many of our favourite stars were recognised for their marvellous talents.

Rachel Weisz has done it again.

After bagging herself a Golden Globe barely a week ago, she's now collected a Screen Actors Guild award at the 2006 ceremony.

Despite being hotly tipped to scoop the board, Brokeback Mountain picked up none of the awards it was nominated for at the 2006 SAG awards.

In the TV gongs, Felicity Huffman was voted the funniest of those Desperate Housewives and Kiefer Sutherland won best actor for 24.

Surely a TV show would never get bigger than a star.

Would it?

So, who was big in 2006?

And by that, we don't mean who was obese.

Check out this week's new releases at the flicks before you head off.

There's blackmail and conspiracy in star-studded thriller The Sentinal, starring Michael Douglas, Kiefer Sutherland, Kim Basinger and Eva Longoria, swimmers stranded off a party yacht in Adrift and Crank, starring Jason Statham as a poisoned hitman trying to stay alive.

It was a good night for British talent at this year's Emmys.

And an interesting night for fashion - with some great style on one manicured hand, yes you Cat Deeley, and some dodgy clobber on the other.

British miniseries Elizabeth I, 24 and the US version of The Office all basked in success at the 58th Annual Emmy Awards in Los Angeles.

Dame Helen Mirren took home a best actress gong, while Kiefer Sutherland proudly accepted the trophy for best actor in a drama, and Ricky Gervais won yet another award for his comedy smash The Office.

Kate Winslet isn't a name you'd normally associate with TV, but she's been nominated for a prestigious TV Emmy.

The nod is for a rare TV cameo in Ricky Gervais' Extras, where she mocked her own desperation for Oscars, and talked dirty with our Rick.

Don't go to the cinema without checking out Tim Evans' reviews.

This week he checks out the third X-Men movie, Ed Norton in Down In The Valley and new animated flick The Wild.

We were a bit disturbed to hear certain whispers about secret liaisons.

Could Eva Longoria really be enjoying naughty trysts with 24 star Kiefer Sutherland?

Oh dear. There's a bit of an A-list kerfuffle going on.

In TV land it was a good night for Lost and Desperate Housewives - but not for their individual stars.

In the battle for the best TV comedy actress, the Housewives had four of the five nomination spots but none of them tasted glory.

Brokeback Mountain just pipped Walk The Line to the Golden Globe post with four gongs.

And although some of the British big hopes such as Keira Knightley and Judi Dench will be putting their ornaments back on the mantelpiece, Rachel Weisz walked away with the best supporting actress gong.

The winners have been announced and there were a few shocks at the Emmys - while Lost and Felicity Huffman were deserved winners, there was shock at the accolade for Everybody Loves Raymond, which won best comedy and both supporting awards.

James Spader and William Shatner (Boston Legal) were old hands at the winning thing, while Blythe Danner walked away with the best supporting drama actress award for the fabulous Huff.

It's always good to be appreciated by your fellow professions and Hilary Swank and Jamie Foxx will be feeling all fuzzy inside after the Screen Actors Guild Awards named them as the best actress and actor.

In the TV categories it was those Desperate Housewives who came out on top in an evening that was generally quite disappointing for British stars.

Kiefer Sutherland had to fire his own daughter after she couldn't keep quiet on the set of his hit TV series 24.

Sixteen-year-old Sarah Sutherland was working as a production assistant on the drama series - until Kiefer lost his rag and showed no preferential treatment, reports the Daily Mail.
