Exclusive: Our Laura surprised the director of Me Before You and she LOVED it

Fans of the book Me Before You will be familiar with the famous bumblebee tights.  For everyone else, it's a special feature of the book and new movie, which stars Emilia Clarke and Sam Claflin. The lead character, Lou, has a special connection with the tights and they become an important part of the story. I caught up with Emilia in London and also the director Thea to chat about the movie. You can watch Emilia's interview here. For Thea, I surprised her by wearing the bumblebee tights and they went down a treat.

She spoke to me about her first time directing and the selection process of picking Emilia to play the lead role of Lou. Watch the interview here: Me Before You comes out on Friday, 3rd June and it's absolutely brilliant. Bring your tissues but the tears are worth it.
