Billie Piper is apparently in the lead role of Sally Lockhart in a new adaptation of Philip Pullman's the Ruby in the Smoke. This is a really good book, one of a series set in London about Sally fighting nasty gangsters. It's a bit Nancy Drew, and I read them after the Northern Lights trilogy following a recommendation of a friend. Said friend, on hearing who was playing Sally on the tv said: "she's a bit seedy and raddled" to play her.
Poor Billie. She's not even 25 yet and is already being described that way! She does always look like she needs to wash her hair, maybe that would improve matters!
