Actor Timothy Spall fell to his knees and prayed to God when he was told he had cancer. The Harry Potter star was filming a commercial in 1996 when he was diagnosed with acute leukaemia and ordered to attend a hospital for emergency treatment. The stunned star fell to his knees and begged for divine intervention - and his prayers were seemingly answered when aggressive chemotherapy put the disease in remission. Spall tells TV show This Morning, "I said (to the doctor), 'Tell me what's going on. Read more

Just look at the first ten minutes of Once Upon a Time in the West: a fistful of tough hombres in ankle-length dusters are waiting for a train at a railway depot out in the middle of nowhere. Their faces are familiar yet strange: Woody Strode and Jack Elam are veteran Hollywood cowboys, with dozens of movies under their belts. But they have never been filmed like this before, gazed at so long or so longingly. Leone... Read more
