She is bloody brilliant ! Actor, writer, producer, comedienne, wife, mother, friend to many - including some iconic Brits like Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie who may not have ever worked together had it not been for Emma introducing them at Cambridge.

I want to be sequestered in a Hotel Suite with lots of happy hour munchies, a whole lot of wine, a bunch of girlfriends and Emma Thompson and Julie Walters.

Personally I wouldn’t if I thought so. The door policeman story may have well happened to her but she’s obviously exaggerated it for comedic effect. Seen plenty of Hollywood actors/actresses repeat a farfetched story over and over in interviews on these shows. Can’t blame them. 🤷🏻‍♀️ They promote for every upcoming film mostly, on a number of these types of shows in both US and the UK, don’t forget. They barely get asked about the film/tv they came to promote until maybe the last question.
