Dyserth star ‘overwhelmed' after winning Hollywood award
Katie Benbow, with co-star Adam Houghton, won 'Best Acting Duo of the Year' at the IndieX Film Fest for their performances in English Rose.

(Image: Katie Benbow) The film, directed by Alexander Bather from Llandudno, follows a crazed young couple as they do the unthinkable on a thrill ride to freedom, with no one to stop them. Katie, a singer who has appeared on BBC talent show The Voice, said she initially accepted the part 'to do my friend [Bather] a favour' and did not expect the film to be received the way it has. 'My friend from home wrote this film and I wasn't going to do it but ended up doing it last minute - I was just doing my friend my favour,' Katie told the Journal. 'We didn't think it was going to win an award and then won.' Win it did, despite English Rose being one of more than 7,000 films submitted to the awards. Katie composed six original, 'sixties swing soul' songs for the film and also put together the entire music score.

Katie continued: 'I didn't expect it to be fancy as it was – there were lots of Hollywood actors and directors there and lots of big actors up for the same awards. 'Frank Sinatra's granddaughter, Nancy Sinatra's daughter, had a film and I didn't realise who she was. 'When she sat and watched our film and she loved it, and I said I loved her dress.' The awards were held at Regal LA Live, a 'super swanky' cinema in the heart of West Hollywood. Director Alexander Bather from Llandudno.

'We ended up going to this fancy restaurant with people who had worked on a Ben Affleck film. 'I'd never been to LA before and I lived my American fantasy.' The group behind English Rose hope to arrange a premier-type event in Colwyn Bay, which would show their short films and including workshopping with young actresses and directors from the region.

Anti-ICE protesters in Los Angeles spit on and burn American flag
Protesters in Los Angeles were filmed burning and spitting on American flags as they chanted anti-Trump slogans over the weekend. Footage from the incident shows a circle of dozens of people, many wearing masks, surrounding an American flag burning on the ground. Several of the individuals then spit on the flag or sprayed flammable liquid to continue the blaze before a second flag was added to the fire. A number of the protesters held high the flags of South American countries like Mexico as the U.S. flag burned on the ground. They also chanted "F-Trump." The footage from this weekend's riots also shows officers with the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department moving in to disperse the crowds, shooting flash bangs as they went. The Los Angeles Police Department declared an "unlawful assembly" Sunday night as protesters failed to disperse in the downtown area. "Agitators have splintered into and through out the Downtown Area," the LAPD's Central Division wrote on X. "Residents, businesses and visitors to the Downtown Area should be alert and report any criminal activity. Officers are responding to several different locations to disperse crowds." "An UNLAWFUL ASSEMBLY has been declared for the Downtown Los Angeles area," the department added. Protesters marched into the L.A. Live area, an entertainment complex in the heart of downtown Los Angeles that sits adjacent to Arena and the Los Angeles Convention Center, and were blocking lanes on Figueroa and 11th streets, police said. President Donald Trump sent in the National Guard this weekend after Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents were reportedly attacked on the streets of L.A. as they conducted raids to catch and deport illegal immigrants. Seeing that neither California Gov. Gavin Newsom nor L.A. Mayor Karen Bass were moving aggressively enough to stop the attacks, Trump signed a presidential memorandum to deploy 2,000 National Guard troops to "address the lawlessness that has been allowed to fester," the White House said in a statement. Newsom objected immediately even as the riots spiraled. "I have formally requested the Trump Administration rescind their unlawful deployment of troops in Los Angeles county and return them to my command," Newsom wrote on X on Sunday alongside his letter to President Trump. "We didn't have a problem until Trump got involved. This is a serious breach of state sovereignty – inflaming tensions while pulling resources from where they're actually needed."
