Festival Marquee | 8.00pm | £12, £10 (c)

Martine's life reads like a novel and it should be no surprise that at last she has written one. Born in a Salvation Army Hostel, raised in desperate circumstances in London’s East End, she defeated all obstacles and found huge success as a TV actress in Eastenders, as a film actress in Love Actually and as a chart-topping singer. The Mistress is another extraordinary story, sexy, warm, funny and very moving; "I was never going to be somebody's silver when I could be their gold. I never dreamed I would be The Mistress". Martine wears her talents lightly and is a terrific and accessible communicator.

Martine will be in conversation about her life, her times and what the future holds for one of Britain most talented actresses.
