HAVING just made her first foray into the world of acting, in the short film The Town That Boars Me, singer Sophie Ellis Bextor isn’t planning on giving up the day job.

The daughter of ex-Blue Peter presenter Janet Ellis told us: “I’ve never been one of those singers who’s always wanted to act. I did some acting at drama school but I’m a singer first and foremost. I’ve got my fourth album out soon.

“But this film was great fun to do and if I got another opportunity, then who knows?

"I’d love to work with someone like Tim Burton but I don’t think that’s very likely,” added Sophie at the London launch of the film at Beach Blanket Babylon, where she was accompanied by musician husband Richard Jones (pictured with her).
