Inside the Sala Grande, George Clooney introduced his new girlfriend, TV presenter Elisabetta Canalis; and when the projector broke down at a screening of his film The Men Who Stare at Goats, he entertained the audience with a vigorous...
...there's nothing more fearsome than the liberal establishment in uproar. After protests from prominent fans of the Observer such as writer Martin Amis, actors Simon Callow and Colin Firth, kitchen goddess Nigella Lawson and musicians Damon Albarn and Dizzee Rascal, GMG issued a statement confirming that the Observer would survive.
