With this wonder drug, you just pop till you drop

Back at home, I googled the drug to find that these are: depression, sleeping difficulties, nausea, insomnia, a potentially dangerous increase in heart rate, feelings of hostility, suicidal thoughts and nightmares. Other than that, it sounds like a real life-enhancer.

If my husband had fathered a love-child with our housekeeper (its not impossible shes an attractive woman, and the way she vacuums borders on indecent), I think Id like to know before a marriage therapist. Id see that as the bare minimum in terms of respect, really. Because to find out at the same time as some bespectacled, 100-quid-an-hour outsider well, that might be a little humiliating.

Apparently, Maria Shriver doesnt share my viewpoint. In his new memoir, Arnold Schwarzenegger says that he was forced to come clean about his love-child with his housekeeper, Mildred Baena, by his wife during their couples counselling session. The minute we sat down, he writes, the therapist turned to me and said, 'Maria wanted to come here today and to ask about a child whether you fathered a child with your housekeeper.

Now, Im sure marriage therapy works for some, but this kind of interventionism just reminds me of playing the invisible sibling game with my brother, as warring six and eight year olds: Mum could you please ask him to pass the Cheerios?

Only this isnt about breakfast cereal this is about copulating with your housekeeper in the guesthouse during Batman and Robin filming breaks. Im not sure when the right moment to fess up to fathering a love-child is, but Im guessing that by the time someone with a PhD in psychology is putting the question to you on the couch, its probably too late.

Damian Lewis, British? US audiences are still reeling from the Homeland stars bizarre acceptance speech at the Emmys on Sunday night and by bizarre I mean made with a British accent. It appears the Eton-educated actors performance as US Marine Sergeant Nicholas Brody in Obamas favourite TV drama was so good that nobody realised he was, as he apologetically put it, one of those pesky Brits.

Someone should probably let the American public know that Christian Bale, Robert Pattinson and Catherine Zeta-Jones are also British not that youd know it from their assumed mid-Atlantic drawls.
