I’m scheduled to speak to Jamie Lee Curtis at 2pm UK time, and a few minutes before the allotted slot I dial in via video link, to be met with a vision of the 66-year-old actor sitting alone in a darkened room, staring impassively into the camera. “Morning,” she says, with comic flatness, as I make a sound of surprise that is definitely not a little scream.
Oh, hi!! I say, Are you early or am I late?
