Stand out in style like Ashley wearing a Rixo London dressRixo London is fast becoming the go-to brand for celebrities as they've dressed everyone from Laura Whitmore, Holly Willoughby, Margot Robbie and many more. They're prints are unique, fun and play on vintage styles bursting with colour, so it's not hard to see why they're so popular. We recently spotted Ashley Jensen wearing their 'Alice' dress and we're now keen to have a slice of the Rixo trend ourselves. The actresses' midi number features a gorgeous red starfish print that's scattered with dots that not only breaks up the dress to flatter the figure, but also makes Ashley's whole look a stand out statement.

| Posted: 28 Nov 2014 12:00 AM PST  Hermione relocated to Dorset after having her daughter- Hero Outwardly, Hermione Norris's ice-cool beauty suggests someone who doesn't suffer fools gladly. In reality she's full of fun and mischief – one of life's great gigglers – but also prone to sudden bursts of tears. Here's someone who wears her heart on her sleeve, someone whose emotions can turn on a coin – very useful, of course, if you happen to be an actress. Ever since her breakout role as stressed, middle-class mother Karen Marsden in Cold Feet in 1997, Hermione, 47, has worked almost seamlessly on a succession of long-running series. Indeed, she seems to have a genius for picking winners. She played DCI Carol Jordan in Wire In The Blood, ruthless killer agent Ros Myers in Spooks and Stephen Fry's half-sister Beatrice in Kingdom, which all attracted big viewing figures. The by-product of this is that she gets offered interesting side projects, like the new Christmas Words For You album. It features Joanna Lumley, Jim Broadbent, Stephen Tompkinson and Hermione reading festive poems set to Christmas background music and carols. 'I had no hand in selecting the poems,' she says, but I was delighted to accept. 'One of the things I love about my job is that you never know what the next offer of work is going to be. My task was to understand what I was reading, then make it accessible to the listener. This is genuinely something I'd buy to play in the car or in the kitchen when I'm preparing Sunday lunch.' Of her four poems, her favourite is In The Bleak Midwinter, a hymn about the birth of Christ. 'I love it so much I had it read at my wedding. We got married at Christmas. It always makes me cry.' She and her TV producer husband, Simon Wheeler – they met when both were working on Wire In The Blood – will celebrate their 12th wedding anniversary next month. They have a ten-year-old son, Wilf, and a seven-year-old daughter, Hero. 'I was 40 when she was born and my only regret is that I'd always wanted four children. But I didn't meet Simon until my mid-30s. I knew quite quickly that he was The One, although I didn't feel I should push my luck by having more babies in my 40s. Anyway, I was physically exhausted.' A few years ago the family decamped from London to Dorset. 'I'd fallen in love with the county when I used to go for walks along the Jurassic Coast in between bouts of filming Cold Feet. Also Simon went to school in Dorset.  Hermione with her family at the opening night of Cirque du Soleil s 'Kooza' at the Royal Albert Hall in London We'd drive down there from Northumberland when we were filming Wire In The Blood. But our principal reason for moving was the children's education, because the schools there are very good. It makes it a bit tricky for work but I'd rather have my family in a safe haven. When the school years are over, though, we'll go back to London.' Christmas this year will be spent at home. 'We'll make the Christmas pudding together. We'll have a party for family and friends when everyone will sing carols. Simon's the real cook so he'll do the turkey or goose and all the trimmings. I end up doing the chopping and the washing-up. The stockings will be opened first thing. Wilf knows the secret of Santa Claus but he wouldn't dream of telling his sister. Then it's off to church, back for lunch, followed by the opening of the main presents. Very old-fashioned, very traditional, the way I was brought up. Simon's even worse. He's 1950s man.' Hermione can next be seen on the small screen at Christmas in Sky1's Agatha Raisin And The Quiche Of Death, based on the comic crime novel by MC Beaton. She plays amateur dramatics devotee Jo Cummings Brown, married to the errant Andy (played by her husband from Cold Feet, Robert Bathurst). And the New Year will bring a second series of Kay Mellor's In The Club, about a group of mothers-to-be. Once again, Hermione looks to have picked a winner. The only exception to her run of good luck was last spring's The Crimson Field, set in a field hospital in WWI in which she played Matron Grace Carter. After lukewarm reviews and an audience that fell from 6m to 4.4m, it was axed by the BBC. I don't care for any sort of social media. I'm not on Facebook, either. I'm not even keen on email; it's too invasive 'I'm sad about that,' she says. 'My mother was a nurse in the 50s and they were all terrified of Matron. Quite right, too. I'm not qualified to comment but when people call for the reinstatement of Matron ruling hospital wards with a rod of iron, you can see their point of view. It's a system that worked. And everything was at least clean.' She also popped up in the last series of Doctor Who as an astronaut, thinking it would please her children. 'But as soon as a spider came on screen, Hero switched off the TV. I enjoyed myself, though, it was terrific working with Peter Capaldi.' All these years later people still ask her about Cold Feet, which made stars of the principal cast members, including John Thomson, James Nesbitt, Helen Baxendale and Fay Ripley. 'It was ground-breaking. I don't think any of us at the time quite realised we were caught up in something so special.' Has she watched any of the episodes recently? 'Good Lord, no. It would be like getting out the family album. I only watch myself in anything on my own in a darkened room, virtually from behind the sofa. I don't even want Simon there.' The cast have all remained friends though. 'I work with Robert all the time. I spoke to Helen recently. I'm godmother to John's daughter, Olivia.' Stephen Fry was as much fun as you'd expect, she says, when they worked on Kingdom. Does she keep up with him on Twitter? 'Absolutely not, but that's only because I don't care for any sort of social media. I'm not on Facebook, either. I'm not even keen on email; it's too invasive. I mean, how many different ways do you need to communicate? What's wrong with simply talking to somebody? I was chatting to a member of staff at my children's school the other day. 'She'd come across ten teenagers in a room, each on their phones. She said, "Why don't you just talk to each other?" And they said, "We are." Thankfully, my two are too young at the moment for social media. My attitude is, "Get outside into the garden, get as dirty as you can, play. Be a child."' Does she make plans for the future? 'My life is bursting at the seams with commitments, principally to my family. But, professionally speaking, I've always looked forward to my 50s. I know it's a decade that frightens some actresses but I think it could be an interesting chapter. I've been lucky so far with work, perhaps that's why I don't think it will suddenly stop when I hit 50.' Quite without warning, her eyes well with tears. 'I'm so sorry,' she splutters. She takes a few deep breaths to gather herself before continuing. 'They say that, if work is going badly, you'll cope if your home life is happy; and the reverse is true. Well, I'm lucky in both respects. My family and my home mean the world to me. And I've been so fortunate in my career. Truly, I'm blessed.' n Christmas Words For You is out on Sony. Agatha Raisin And The Quiche Of Death is on Sky1 at Christmas.
