I understood this to mean that they wanted to ask Mr Fiennes about his acting career. His Hamlet is particlularly impressive.

Hugh, Mother tried but alas, I have to rely on google translations of French - which I find suspect but nonetheless amusingly informative. http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=fr&u=http://www.ulb.ac.be/cal/edl/editions/collectionpensee%26leshommes/PH7.html&sa=X&oi=translate&resnum=1&ct=result&prev=/search%3Fq%3DL%2527outrage%2Baux%2Bmoeurs%26hl%3Den%26client%3Dsafari%26rls%3Den

One can but suppose that  the male flight attendants are at the front of the photo..?

MJ:

"I understood this to mean that they wanted to ask Mr Fiennes about his acting career. His Hamlet is particlularly impressive."
But nowhere near as impressive as Lian Neeson's Hampton [Wick].  At least according to my friend Deidra who was Neeson's girlf in Norn Iron (Belfast), and was with him and Fiennes during the making of Schindler's List.
She was approached by the News of the Screws years ago, but told them her lips were sealed.  The journo made rather a crude but funny joke about this, which Dierdra being a devout Catholic did not quite understand  at the time (by reason of  lack of vocabulary, rather than experience).
