Wow, first to post!!!
That is a wonderful move for Rupert, not only he will expand his experience as an actor but also gaining new understanding at the same time.

I'm curious...Rupert and Julie must really like each other, cause they seem to be within close acting range all the time. Granted, they do have great chemistry, but it's a little wierd, don't you think?
Hmmm...it'll be interesting to hear about this new project.

Good for him, then. I hope it was something he wanted to do, though, and not just ITC roping him into something to get new viewers. Hooray for him anyway, though.

This sounds really good for him. He appears to be having quite a bit of success in movie into different projects and media venues. It is really nice to see that he is having the chance to do this. It will be interesting to learn more about it.

What? ITV is not a good television, they only have crap TV programs and why TV? I hope this is not true, maybe HPANA is getting confuse about his movie DL been on ITV, I think that is the thing that he is going to do, I hope he is not doing TV and not on ITV!! NO RUPERT DON'T DESTROY YOUR CAREER ON ITV!!!!!

This is VERY good for Rupert,,, but I wonder if we in the USA will be able to see it eventually on BBC America. I would like to see him on ITV but I dont think United States Cable has the channel. If anyone has the answer feel free to let me know. Thank you.
