With that kind of coverage and exposure the celebs are making every effort to take advatage of this sizeable marketing opportunity, see James Blunt’s tireless plugging of his new single online(!).

In the castle much entertainment has come from the show’s comedy stars, of which Romesh Ranganathan has led the laughs, even when his bestie Rob Beckett was murdered.
