Diana Rigg’s girl, Rachael Stirling, is getting married

It was claimed that Rachael, 33, broke up with her previous boyfriend, John Lycett Green, the grandson of Sir John Betjeman, because he couldn’t cope with her lesbian scenes in the drama Tipping the Velvet.

Polly Toynbee may rail in The Guardian that David Cameron’s huge society is a “busted flush,” but she doesn’t seem to be busted herself. With her husband, David Walker, who picked up a £30,000 pay off when he was sacked as the communications boss of the Audit Commission, she has moved into a £1.5 million home in an upmarket road in north London which includes the word “Eton” in its name. Toynbee, who once declined to reveal her salary to me after calling for everybody else’s to be made available on the internet, already has a planning application in for a conservatory.
