Hayley’s on-set hoot

KEEPING the laughs rolling on the set of the new Brideshead Revisited film, Oscar-winning actress Emma Thompson, 49, and Hayley Atwell, 26, decided to take over the camera.

The pair, who play mother and daughter in the adaptation of Evelyn Waugh’s novel, mucked about and recorded their own scenes for the period drama, showing Emma’s character, the prim and proper Lady Marchmain, striking a shocking pose.

“In one shot, I – as Lady Julia Flyte – was sitting on a chaise longue and set up so I couldn’t see Lady Marchmain behind me ready to hit me with a coal shovel,” Hayley tells Tatler magazine.

“What’s great about Emma is she was so beautiful in her incredible costumes, hair and make-up and behaving appallingly.”

Sounds like a hoot.
