XD this was on the red carpet, the interviewer didn't know who she was and then went downhill form there XD they are so lucky she didn't walk away.
In an interview on Saturday, Dagenham star Miranda Richardson (who plays the real-life minister who helped pass Britain’s equal pay law in 1970) summed it up with her typical astringency: “I don’t think there’s such a thing as a career any more,” she said, referring to the kind that starts small and blooms steadily upward and outward. “Certainly no one has ever known what to do with me. I’m like mercury – I do a bit here, then I’m over there, you can’t grasp me.”
Her assertion was proven brutally true on the red carpet outside the Elgin theatre that night – twice. First a BBC reporter had no idea who she was: “Are you the producer or writer or something?” he asked her. Then another reporter mistook her for a member of the Richardson/Redgrave family (she isn’t). “You should do your homework,” she replied lightly. Astoundingly, he stuck to his mistake. “I have! I know all about your family!” he said. She would have had every right to walk away, but the attention was important enough to her that she didn’t. “All right,” she said evenly, “we’re going to start again. What do you want to ask me?”

Argh, it really is unbelievable they didn't know who she was. What kind of amateurs do they employ nowadays haha!

The reporters they send to the red carpet should know who they are going to interview. That is so ridiculous!

You'd think after her saying do your research he'd realise he was wrong, but no he thinks he is still correct *Shakes head* silly people.
