Mixing business and pleasure, Sienna Miller got a little tipsy in the kitchen with Jamie Oliver and Jimmy Doherty for "Food Fight Club" in London on Wednesday (September 18).

Though she made sure to check out the hottest new styles during London Fashion Week, the 31-year-old actress admits her downtime is spent in casual attire.
Speaking to Elle.com, Sienna confesses, "Off-duty, it's pretty gross, like tracksuits and T-shirts. But I guess I tend to really switch it up. I love rock 'n' roll stuff, I love tailoring - it's kind of like a lot of different things."...

Jon Hamm and Daniel Radcliffe's pairing in A Young Doctor's Notebook proved an unsurprisingly popular combo for Sky Arts, giving the channel the best viewing figures in its seven-year history on Thursday night.
The four-part comedy drama, adapted from Mikhail Bulgakov's autobiographical short stories and featuring the Mad Men and Harry Potter actors playing the same doctor at different stages of his life, attracted an average audience of 252,000.
Viewing of the first outing of the series, which is made by Big Talk and aired at 9pm as part of Sky Arts's Playhouse Presents, had a five-minute peak of 307,000.
This is the biggest audience the channel has attracted since BSkyB acquired Artsworld in 2005 – the service was rebranded Sky Arts two years later – according to a spokeswoman.

The detail, acting and pacing are spot on. So why does Boardwalk Empire still feel a tad lifeless?
Boardwalk Empire episode-by-episode
A budget of $18m, a script by Sopranos writer Terence Winter and direction by Martin Scorsese: you could hardly ask for more for a show chosen to launch a new channel showcasing classy HBO imports. And Boardwalk Empire (Sky Atlantic) more or less delivers with this part-costume-drama, part-Sopranos-throwback of Atlantic City in the prohibition era of the 1920s. Everything about the production is just so: every detail from the suits and tie-pins to copies of Vogue is spot on, the pacing is near perfect and in bug-eyed, ex-Soprano Steve Buscemi as Enoch "Nucky" Thompson – the corrupt Atlantic City treasurer – a strong lead character.
And yet, there was something rather lifeless about it, as if the show was trying just that bit too hard to tick all the boxes:...
