This is a bit late, but I only recently came across it. When Tristan & Isolde was shown on Channel4 in the UK just before Christmas, the Daily Mail’s supplement magazine Weekend featured a small portrait about Sophia Myles in the TV listing.

• Face Is Familiar, The Daily Mail – Weekend (UK), December 19, 2009

There is a problem with the site’s newsletter so be sure to either use the RSS feed or follow us on Twitter to be informed of any news and/or updates on sophiamyles.org.

How time flies! It seems like yesterday that Absolutely Sophia Myles had been celebrating being online for half a decade and already another year’s passed. For the occasion I finished coding a new layout for the website.

A while ago members of the messageboard had the opportunity to create a layout for the site. In the end only one was submitted – but what a gorgeous layout this is! Luna designed the graphics – many thanks! – which in turn highly influenced my coding. I’ve been going over everything so I think it should all work – but please let me know if you encounter any problems.

What else is new? In the sidebar I replaced the random quotes by Sophia Myles with new orginal ones. Enjoy!

It was also time to change the poll question. Since January 2, 2009, 766 of the site’s visitors have answered the question ‘What’s your favourite character?‘. The result was overwhelmingly clear: 515 people (or 67%) chose Beth Turner from ‘Moonlight‘. The other top choices were Isolde (‘Tristan & Isolde‘) with 18% and Reinette (‘Doctor Who‘) with 9%. But only 1% or 10 people prefer the character of Kate Breck in ‘Hallam Foe‘ to all others. See all results here. As of now there’s a new poll open for voting in the sidebar: What kind of movie would you like to see Sophia in next?

I’m really sorry for the lack of updates recently. But I’ve thoroughly been enjoying summer and being out & about with friends and it’s also been rather quiet in the Sophia world. Well, thanks to Sarika from Rachel Hurd-Wood Web we have a new outtake from the 2007 portrait session for Stella magazine. Sophia Myles and the other actresses are striking some funky rockstar poses – a must-see!

I know I promised to do this a long time ago, but finally it’s here: the transcript of the first exclusive Fan Q&A with Sophia Myles back in January 2008!
