At home, though, critical attention is likely to be at its most intense, with McKenzie seeking to fill the shoes of previous popular interpreters like Margaret Rutherford, Joan Hickson and, most recently, Geraldine McEwan.

Actor Tom Selleck has been awarded more than US$187,000 after a California jury found the actor was duped into buying a lame horse.
Selleck —Selleck is best known for his role on TV’s Magnum, P.I. in the 1980s — accused equestrian Dolores Cuenca of trying to pass off a show horse with a medical condition as fit to ride in competitions.
The defense had argued that Selleck didn’t check the veterinarian records of the 10-year-old Zorro.
