Our beautiful friend Emma Chambers has died at the age of 53. We're very very sad. She was a great, great comedy performer, and a truly fine actress. And a tender, sweet, funny, unusual, loving human being.

My remarkable mum. 94 today and still strong smart and mischievous. Still having a glass of red wine and a packet of pork scratchings every day for lunch. Still reading every page of the @guardian every day. Still angry about Trident. Still beautiful, still ballsy, still my hero.

Karmic moment yesterday. saw woman knocked off her motorbike by a driver, on his phone, who hit and ran. Nobody got his car registration - but while we waited for the ambulance and disentangled her from her bike, we found his numberplate stuck in her mudguard. #thereisagod.

OH MY DAYS THE MATT SMITH SAID YES. He's tweeting (via my account) for the whole episode! 1st time ever on twitter! FFS join us on Monday, find 'Vincent And The Doctor' on any platform (iPlayer, Netflix, Amazon etc) and press play at 7pm. Then check #TheUltimateGinger *faints*.
So. I have officially asked The Matt Smith if he'll join Richard Curtis, Tony Curran, Karen Gillan and Bill Nighy in live-tweeting their 'Vincent And The Doctor' episode on Monday at 7pm BST. The Matt Smith has never tweeted. We await his answer. #TheUltimateGinger
