Is this thread still running?
So, I found myself on the following story on the Mirror site : www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/2011/04/22/david-cameron-questions-judges-over-number-of-injunctions-issued-for-privacy-115875-23078295/

and perhaps it was co-incidence, but in the 'related articles' section, there's something about Morrissey www.mirror.co.uk/celebs/music/2011/04/21/morrissey-uneasy-with-david-cameron-being-a-fan-of-the-smiths-115875-23077256/

and within THAT article, a mention of Marr. Innocent coincidence or something more interesting...

Have heard the actor with cult following has initials HL,plays a doctor.

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 26/04/2011 21:24

Ohhhhhh. HL, eh??

wintera · 26/04/2011 22:45

The top British actor one is definitely HB. There was an article in the telegraph recently that basically spelt it out! Will find it now and copy . . .

Mandrake's article in The Telegraph -

H B simple pleasures

Few, if any, users of the Twitter social networking website make a better advertisement for married life than H B, the D A star.

The 47-year-old actor has lately regaled his 16,600 followers with his happy experiences at Chessington World of Adventures with his wife, and nine-year-old son. It is the simple pleasures for H: he talks, too, of his joy at "jogging through a bluebell wood... glorious."

His tip for wholesome television viewing for Easter Monday? Just William on CBBC. "It's superb family viewing," he decrees. The star not merely of D, but also of films such as Scenes of a Sexual Nature and Conspiracy of Silence, B has undoubtedly come a long way since he started out at the National and the RSC in productions of The School for Scandal and 'Tis Pity She's a Whore.

God, that's a masterclass in innuendo isn't it? Grin

valiumbandwitch · 27/04/2011 09:44

Ephraim Hardcastle had that in his column the day the fuss broke!

asdx2 · 27/04/2011 09:56

Would most prolific actor be DJ? Am I a fool to suggest this? will it get a Frosty reception?

lilaloves · 27/04/2011 10:12

The British actor with the cult following in America,family based in uk is HL,doctor,likes fries too.

messybessie · 27/04/2011 12:57

asdx2 Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

asdx2 · 27/04/2011 13:11

Not surprised I'm rubbish at the celebrity gossip but seem to remember DJ being synonymous with most prolific actor in all the papers.

Hazel - I have a friend who used to work at the NOTW and swears that they have seen the photos ...

BalloonSlayer · 27/04/2011 16:01

Private Eye today has the "are they by chance related" lookalikes as HB and Wayne Rooney. And they have managed to get photos that do make them look quite alike Grin

SomethingSuper · 27/04/2011 16:08

I can totally believe Paul Daniels would be into that Shock

QueenEgglizabeth · 08/05/2011 05:37

from Daily Mail this morning;
'But then Hugh?s devotion to wife Lulu is so strong it is understood he is known to fellow thespians as the Ryan Giggs of the showbusiness world, after the famously family-orientated footballer.'

porkscratchings · 08/05/2011 08:57

Hmm

wintera · 08/05/2011 09:11

Wow!!! That article is getting a bit close isn't it? And then finishing with the R G comment . . . . . . . .

jenk1 · 08/05/2011 09:51

BalloonSlayer · 08/05/2011 10:03

Argh sorry don't get the Ryan Giggs reference.

Explanation pretty please?

lottiejenkins · 08/05/2011 10:16

RG is allegedly the footballer who slept with the BB girl!! I say allegedly as i dont want to get into trouble!!

missmelo · 08/05/2011 14:00

Very pointed, but not incriminating.

pocoyo123 · 08/05/2011 15:38

@InjunctionSuper on twitter. Hope he's got good lawyers!!

porkscratchings · 08/05/2011 16:51

Shock can't believe it's still up!
So if, for example, I told one of my friends down the soft play organic wholefood cafe what I had just read and it was, alledgedly, true, does that mean that judge would find me and bang me up?
How long would I get? Free food, peace and quiet to read my book...hmmm
