Hermione Norris: TV actors aren't rich - I shop from Asda's value range

[As a regular fixture on television
since her days in the hit drama
Cold Feet, Hermione Norris could
be expected to live a comfortable life.
Yet the actress has claimed
British television pays such meagre
wages that she buys her groceries
from Asda’s budget range.
The claims are surprising, coming
as they do from an actress who
earned a reported £75,000 per episode
for the final series of
ITV’s Cold Feet in 2003.
However, Norris said times are tougher.

“It’s quite a different industry
now and the money has gone
down hugely. So there’s still
quite a bit of Asda Smart Price
going on in my life. I certainly
don’t squander cash lightly,”
said Norris, 46.
“I think, perhaps, if you work
in America, the fees are still
very good. But my life is here
and I love British drama.
If those beans come
from Asda’s Smart Price
range, they will cost 24p.
Other bargains
include a 71p lasagne." ]

Sign Of The Times

Why shop in dreadful Asda and their crap value range when you can save money and get better quality at Aldi. This lady needs to refocus and get to her nearest Aldi. Its much smaller, quicker and friendlier.

and yes I would if that is the subtext here

She is close
and they have a bigger range at low prices

Never compromise on quality :nono:

She is a Great Actor
and a clever lady getting by on Under a pound deals and veg from
AsdaWalmart.

So the saying's wrong then...

Movies make you famous, TV makes you rich but theatre makes you good. :laugh: Maybe that only applies to the US.

The final paragraph has no closing inverted commas so I don't know where what she's saying ends.

Sounds more like an advertisement for Asda really than a normal interview.

What's wrong with asda!?

Nothing
its the best value store

Sure you could say that.
but she is buying under a pound items
so Poundland are over priced

there's an actual person in the world named hermionie?!

if you like wearing jd sports tracksuits and white trainers then yes

She may have a Hat on
so no one spots her

I don't think anyone really knows who she is

:facepalm:

You've never heard of her?

Cold Feet was epic

She was a agent in Spooks

Good on her for not spending outside her means

I expect she will be the next face of Asda, if it was good enough for Sharon.

71p Lasagne :umm2: not sure I would feed that to my dog.

add Salad and a Roll
improves it.
