Martine McCutcheon declared bankrupt
« on: February 13, 2013, 08:09:52 PM »
EastEnders and Love Actually star petitions for bankruptcy, with Revenue & Customs listed as actor's largest creditor

How do people as famous as that, with such a good track record for working in films, the theatre and TV manage to spend so much money? And not to put some away for the taxman? It beggars belief.

reading the press reports the inference is that she had a management team including accountants who she thought were paying her taxes etc on her behalf but clearly they were not.

Is that not part of an accountants job? Ours does - was she really that naive

a management team

Guess she was that naive, or badly managed  :(

she's never struck me as the sharpest knife in the box when she's been on TV so if she was told by a posh voice in a suit that they were looking after all her interests yes she probably believed them!!
