I have recently uploaded some photos and videos of Rachael which you may not have seen before. 
Two promotional videos for An Ideal Husband:
Some photos:
We don't have much news about Women in Love just yet, but when I asked Rachael when it's going to air, she said April. That may be brought forward as the DVD release seems to be in March, though I did notice that the original DVD release date has already been pushed back considerably, so April may well be right. I hope we get more news soon!
Oh and you can catch Another Life at 7pm on Thursday 3rd March, on True Entertainment (UK). Thanks to Barry for the heads-up!

Just a quick post to say a huge congratulations to Rachael and Oliver, who got engaged recently. It was officially announced in the press this morning.
See the following two articles:
One of the articles mentions that the wedding is expected to be in September.
I've also added some photos from the Oliviers nominees lunch, which took place yesterday. See the 2011 Events gallery.

Two years after I disclosed that Rachael Stirling, Dame Diana Rigg's daughter by her marriage to Archie Stirling, was courting fellow actor Oliver Chris, the couple tell me that they are engaged.
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.
Clearly Chris, 32, is made of stronger stuff. "We're going to be a Wills and Kate tribute act," he joshed at the Olivier Awards nominees' lunch. He expected the marriage to be in September.

Dame Diana Rigg's daughter, Rachael Stirling — best remembered for her controversial lesbian role in television series Tipping The Velvet — has just got engaged. And her mother will be happy to learn it's to a man, fellow actor Oliver Chris.
Rachael, 33, previously romanced by reggae DJ John Lycett-Green, grandson of the late Poet Laureate John Betjeman, says she was proposed to, appropriately, in her dressing room at the Vaudeville Theatre, where she was appearing in An Ideal Husband.
Oliver presented her with a ruby engagement ring he designed himself.
'Maybe it's good luck to have that dressing room — No 2 by the gentlemen's lavatories,' says Rachael.
'Maybe we'll put a little pink plaque up there one day.'
