She’s one of Britain’s best-loved actresses, so when Angela Griffin reveals that she suffers from imposter syndrome, we can barely believe our ears. Despite launching her career with a six-year stint as Coronation Street hairdresser Fiona Middleton and starring in dramas such as Cutting It and Holby City, Angela, 47, says she still has days when she suffers a crisis of confidence. “I’ve 100% got imposter syndrome, but I’m learning to fight it,” she admits as we chat over Zoom.
“I have a whole thing about class and about where I come from. You can’t help it when you’re from a working class background, because you get told and shown where you’re supposed to go in life. For a really long time there weren’t people who sounded like me or looked like me [on TV].” Perhaps it’s because of this imposter syndrome that Angela struggles to say no when work offers come in.
“After Covid, my working class survival mode kicked in, but now I’ve got myself to a point where I’m doing five things at once,” says the actress. “I’ve realised there’s no point working and doing all that if you’re not actually going to get to spend time with people you care about, so I have to learn to unwind.” Three of those people she cares about most are her actor husband Jason Milligan and their daughters Tallulah, 19, and Melissa, 16. After growing up on the Cottingley Estate in Leeds, Angela is aware of how privileged her children are in comparison.

Jessica Kiang Perhaps deciding that the relationship tribulations of white, coastal-American men of medium-to-high class-privilege levels — which were well-served on the big screen in previous decades — have been rather overlooked of late, writer-director Noah Pritzker goes back to the well of male midlife neurosis for his sophomore feature and dredges up not quite enough to fill up one amiable indie dramedy. Powered largely by the affability of Griffin Dunne playing a reluctant pending-divorcé whose aging father has recently left his aging mother and whose adult son is having woman troubles of his own, “Ex-Husbands” which world-premieres at the San Sebastian Film Festival, is likable enough in intention, but flounders en route to its destination.

English Teacher have recalled their struggle with imposter syndrome, and revealed how their growing confidence has allowed them to enter “a new era”.The emerging Leeds band – comprised of vocalist Lily Fontaine, guitarist Lewis Whiting, drummer Douglas Frost and bassist Nicholas Eden – spoke with NME as the latest cover stars, and revealed how they have overcome moments of self-doubt over recent months.In the discussion, the band opened up about their ongoing battle with self-doubt and recalled the ways that their slots at mammoth festivals including Glastonbury and Reading & Leeds have helped them evolve as performers.The discussion also came in light of their recent single ‘The World’s Biggest Paving Slab’ – a track which was originally made in 2020, and reworked to be released last month.“The song truly feels like the start of a new era for us,” said Whiting, reflecting on how the band have grown in popularity since 2020. “It’s amazing to have all these people behind us but it is quite jarring; it’s been a mad two years.

shares of GameStop higher and squeeze the hedge funds shorting the stock.More broadly, Griffin — worth an estimated $35 billion, according to Forbes — was concerned last month that the movie “revives and amplifies this many times debunked collusion narrative” that Citadel and Robinhood worked together to briefly halt trading of GameStop shares, Griffin’s lawyers wrote.At issue: a scene that depicted Griffin speaking with Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev after trading was halted on the Robinhood platform.In response, sources close to the “Dumb Money” producers – whose movie starring Seth Rogen, Pete Davison, Paul Dano and Shailene Woodley is slated to hit theaters Friday — note that Griffin’s lawyers last month appeared to be working off a script that was more than a year old. A scene depicting a conversation between Griffin and Tenev, they note, isn’t in the final cut.In a similar vein, Griffin’s legal team last month raised a complaint that his golfing habits were being grossly overblown by the movie.“The idea that Ken always wants to be on the golf course when in actuality that is one of the last places you would find him (he plays golf once a year),” according to one letter that was obtained by On The Money.In fact, the filmmakers never actually shot footage of Griffin golfing, sources said.
