FG ≫ 2006 ≫ Did you know Natalie Portman and Scarlett Johansson were staying in Sandgate?

Before / during I mean, we all read about it in the Herald after they'd checked out... La Portman wasn't the most favoured guest of The Sandgate Hotel apparently. From The Mirror1, don't go there though it's covered in microsoft adverts that make moving around it hard work.

STORMY PORT IS ON THE DARK SIDE Eva Simpson & Caroline Hedley

STAR Wars actress Natalie Portman has fallen for the dark side of the Force judging by the reaction of staff at Sandgate Hotel, Folkestone, Kent.

Filming The Other Boleyn Girl with Scarlett Johansson, Nat, 25, asked the hotel to shut the bar at 10pm, then disturbed other guests with 5am yoga sessions.

She persuaded staff to prepare a lavish party for her, Scarlett and crew but couldn't attend at the last minute.

One of the staff told us: "We were relieved when she left." Nat's people didn't answer our calls...

This is my site The 'Gerald that I set up in a fury of excitement when I first moved here in approximately 2004. I'd been a frequent visitor for a while before that but I am technically one of those DFLs you get nowadays. The site was a lot more dynamic with a calendar of events + voting for favourite venues + things, + I know it was a useful reference for others who were moving here. Now I've moved out of Folkestone again (though just to Hythe) it doesn't get as much love as it used to. Ironic really as The town is becoming the exciting place we always thought it was just about to. My name is not Gerald by the way, this comes from a pretend paper in an episode of The Day Today or something, the Portsmouth Gerald, and how there is a local newspaper here called the Folkestone Herald. Puns like this are GRATE aren't they? Do contact me if you have anything to offer, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on Twitter.
