Dame Joanna Lumley dubbed it ‘creepy’ when fans take secret photographs of her.
The Absolutely Fabulous star, 77, is always happy to get a picture with a passer-by – as long as she knows about it.
What she can’t stand is when people film or take pictures of her without her permission.
She also has a brilliant reaction when she notices people doing just that.
‘I never mind doing photographs with people, but what I don’t like is when they steal them,’ she explained to Sky News.
‘They don’t ask, you can just see them quietly at a dinner table, going like that [gestures taking a photo] across the restaurant.

‘I walk over and say, “Shall we do a proper picture?” And they get a bit flustered and say, “Oh, I didn’t want to disturb you,” you know? But that’s creepy.’
Dame Joanna finds the constant use of cameras on phones ‘intrusive’ and said it gives her the feeling everyone is being watched to some extent nowadays.
But it’s not just fans this certified national treasure has a problem with in this respect – she doesn’t even like supermarket CCTV cameras.
‘There’s a feeling of being watched, if you’re in a room where there’s a camera – you know you’re being watched… it’s odd,’ she explained.
Dame Joanna is stars in the hit Netflix show of the moment, Fool Me Once, alongside Michelle Keegan.
The Harlan Coben thriller follows Maya Stern (Michelle) as she tries to come to terms with her husband Joe’s murder.
Enter mother-in-law Judith Burkett, who is expertly portrayed by Dame Joanna with her trademark wit and feisty character.

The thriller also stars Utopia actor Adeel Akhtar, the BBC’s His Dark Materials actress Jade Anouka, and The Hobbit trilogy star Richard Armitage.
Judith and Maya have a fractured relationship in the series, and Coronation Street star Michelle previously said it was difficult saying some of her lines to such an iconic actor as Dame Joanna.
Speaking on The One Show, Admitted admitted she dreaded having to fire expletives at Dame Joanna, as she said: ‘Honestly, when I read the script, I was like, “Oh no, oh no!”‘
‘We had a bit of a laugh, didn’t we, when we were rehearsing? I don’t think I said it when we were in rehearsals, I was like, “I can’t! I can’t!”‘
Dame Joanna admitted it was a shock, as she added: ‘When it’s not used very often, bad language comes… it slaps out of the screen at you, it does.’

Cliff Notes – Liverpool forward Diogo Jota, brother die in car crash – Spanish Civil Guard
- Diogo Jota, 28, and his brother André Silva, 25, were killed in a car crash near Zamora, Spain, with police investigating potential causes, including a blown tyre.
- Liverpool FC and the Portuguese Football Federation confirmed the tragic news, expressing their condolences and requesting privacy for the families involved.
Liverpool forward Diogo Jota, brother die in car crash – Spanish Civil Guard
Liverpool and Portugal forward Diogo Jota and his brother, André Silva, were killed in a car crash near Zamora, Spain, police said Thursday.
Liverpool FC, the Portuguese Prime Minister Luís Montenegro and Portuguese Football Federation (FPF) also confirmed the incident.
The Spanish Civil Guard confirmed to The Associated Press that Jota and his brother were found dead after their car went off a road on an isolated stretch of highway about an hour west of Zamora. Authorities said the car, a Lamborghini, according to police was in flames.
Firefighters were called in as the fire spread to nearby vegetation, authorities said.
Police were investigating the causes of the crash
Police were investigating the causes of the crash, which happened past midnight local time. They said there were no other vehicles involved. The bodies were undergoing forensic analysis.
It wasn’t clear who was driving the car. Police were looking into the hypothesis that the crash happened because of a blown tire.
Jota, who was 28, and his brother, who was 25, were both Portuguese players and the only ones in the car, police said.
Jota’s death comes weeks after he married Rute Cardoso and in a social media post wrote, “Yes to forever.” They have three children, the youngest born last year.
Diogo Jota made 182 appearances for Liverpool in five years at the club
A Civil Guard spokesperson told EU News that they believe the driver lost control of the car after a tire blew out.
The Spanish Civil Guard is one of the two national law enforcement agencies of Spain. They are a separate organisation from the police.
Jota, whose full name was Diogo José Teixeira da Silva, made 182 appearances for Liverpool since joining from Wolves in 2020. He lifted the Premier League title in May, having previously won the FA Cup and two Carabao Cups in his five years at the club.
Silva played with Portuguese club Penafiel in the lower divisions.
“Liverpool Football Club are devastated by the tragic passing of Diogo Jota,” the club said in a statement.
“Liverpool FC will be making no further comment at this time and request the privacy of Diogo and André’s family, friends, teammates and club staff is respected as they try to come to terms with an unimaginable loss.
“We will continue to provide them with our full support.”
The club also lowered its flag to half mast.
Tributes were laid at Anfield for Diogo Jota and his brother, André Silva
UEFA said its thoughts were with relatives, friends and teammates affected “by this heartbreaking loss.” It said a moment of silence will be observed at Euro 2025 matches on Thursday and Friday.
Jota began his career at Portuguese side Paços de Ferreira and also played at Atlético Madrid and FC Porto.
Jota also won 49 international caps for Portugal, during which he won the UEFA Nations League in 2019 and again last month, scoring 14 goals.
The FPF said in a statement: “The Portuguese Football Federation and the entire Portuguese football community are devastated by the deaths of Diogo Jota and André Silva in Spain this morning.
“Diogo Jota was not only a fantastic player with almost 50 caps for the national team, but also an extraordinary person who was respected by all his teammates and opponents. He had a contagious joy and was a reference point in his own community.
Diogo Jota married his longtime partner, Rute Cardoso, in a ceremony on June 22
“The Portuguese Football Federation would like to offer the deepest condolences to the families and friends of Diogo and André, as well as Liverpool FC and FC Penafiel, the respective clubs of the players.
“The Portuguese Football Federation has asked UEFA to hold a minute’s silence ahead of our national team’s match against Spain in the Women’s European Championship on Thursday.
“We have lost two champions. Their deaths represent irreparable losses for Portuguese football, and we will do everything we can to honour their legacy every day.”
The Liga Portugal and Atlético Madrid also paid tribute to the two players
Jota’s Portugal teammate, Cristiano Ronaldo, sent his condolences to the brothers’ family.
“It doesn’t make sense. We were just together with the national team, you had just gotten married,” Ronaldo wrote in Portuguese in a post on social media.
“To your family, your wife, and your children, I send my condolences and wish them all the strength in the world. I know you will always be with them. Rest in peace, Diogo and André. We will all miss you.”
Arguably the best tribute came from his former Liverpool teammate and Brazilian legend Roberto Firmino on Instagram whilst posting a carrousel of pictures for the duos relationship and partnership. Naming the children and family personally, was a special touch.
“When words fail, there are only inexpressible groans. And for that reason I get on my knees, praying that the Holy Spirit comforts the heart of Rute, Dinis, Duarte, Mafalda, Seu Joaquim, Lady Isabel and all the family and friends.
It was a privilege and an honor to have known and lived such special moments alongside you. Rest in Peace to my brother Jota, and Andre.”

Get you up to speed: Article on Hitler’s Rise to Power Unearthed in Lincolnshire Renovation
Builders in Stamford, Lincolnshire, uncovered a 1933 Daily Herald detailing Hitler’s rise to power during a property refurbishment.
Property developer Danny Letts plans to collaborate with local history enthusiasts to further explore the significance of the 1933 Daily Herald newspaper found in Stamford.
Property developer Danny Letts is deciding the future use of the refurbished house in Stamford, considering resale, holiday rentals, or personal residence.
What we know so far
Builders renovating a property in Stamford, Lincolnshire, stumbled upon a significant historical find: a newspaper from 1933. The crumpled copy of the Daily Herald, uncovered while removing architrave from a doorway, is dated February 24, just weeks after Adolf Hitler ascended to power in Germany.
The article prominently features the headline “Germany Under Terror – Hitler Governing by Rifle and Gag,” highlighting the violent repression occurring under Hitler’s regime. It described how “Germany is moving rapidly to a wild reign of terror,” illustrating the bleak political climate of the time.
Property developer Danny Letts, who uncovered the newspaper, has created digitally-enhanced versions to preserve the findings. He noted the article’s stark warning about Hitler’s responsibility for numerous deaths, stating, “Little did they know what was to come.” The discovery has attracted interest from local historians and conservationists looking to research the property’s background further.
Letts is currently considering the future of the house, contemplating whether to resell it, convert it into holiday rentals, or make it his own residence once renovations are complete.

Hitler’s rise to power captured in 1933 article found during house renovation in Lincolnshire | News UK
Builders uncovered a small scrap of history while working on a house in Lincolnshire.
The team were removing an architrave from around a doorway at the property in Stamford when they came across a newspaper published in 1933.
Dated Friday, February 24, the crumpled Daily Herald was printed shortly after Adolf Hitler rose to power and features the lead headline ‘Germany Under Terror – Hitler Governing by Rifle and Gag’.
The Nazi leader had been appointed as Chancellor of Germany a few weeks earlier on January 30, 1933.
‘Germany is moving rapidly to a wild reign of terror, with Hitler using shootings, jailings and intimidation,’ the articles reads.

‘Destruction of all pretence of political liberty is threatened and the militarist cast aims at coming back to power.
‘No one is safe if the Hiltlerites disapprove of him. Shootings are common and deaths of opponents of the Nazis go unpunished.’
Property developer Danny Letts has tried to preserve the newspaper and created digitally-enhanced versions to share.
He said: ‘The building was in a poor state of repair but I was hoping to find a few hidden gems while we’re working on it.
‘Until now we had only found a 30 year old Heineken can and some newspapers from 1996.
‘But we found this old screwed up bit of newspaper which was initially just tossed aside. We later found it was dated February 1933.’
It’s interesting to see that it says Hitler was responsible for the deaths of 100 men. Little did they know what was to come.’
Another article tells of eight miners receiving the Edward Medal in the King’s New Year Honours for their bravery at the Bentley Colliery disaster in Yorkshire in 1931 when 45 people died.
The industrial correspondent also reported on farm worker Mr Davison who had been living rent free since 1919. He had been allowed to live in the cottage as part of his employment, but retired in 1919 and continued not to pay rent.
The newspapers have been shared with local history and conservation enthusiasts, who are also looking into the history of the property
Danny, who owns a number of rental properties through his company Belmont Places, is still deciding what to do with the house once the refurbishment is complete.
It will either be resold, made available for holiday rentals, or become Danny’s own home.
