LUMLEY 'THRILLED' WITH GURKHA RULING

LATEST: Actress JOANNA LUMLEY will stay in Britain after former Nepalese Gurkha soldiers won their battle to remain in the country.
The Indian-born British actress, whose father fought alongside the Gurkhas in the British army, had threatened to leave the U.K if former Nepalese Gurkha soldiers lost their battle to stay in the country.
But after taking their fight to the High Court in London, it was ruled that up to 2,000 Gurkhas were allowed to stay in Britain.
And Lumley branded their victory "utterly, utterly thrilling".
She says, "I am so proud of British justice and so proud of the Ghurkas. At last we can begin to put this great wrong right."
