Zellweger slips up on British geography

Published Sunday, Jan 14 2007, 20:45 GMT | By Dave West
Renee Zellweger, who filmed the new Beatrix Potter movie in Cumbria for several months, still thinks the county is in the North East on England.

The star plays the Lake District author in upcoming biopic Miss Potter. However, despite staying in the area for filming, she slipped up while on a US chat show.

It is on "the North East coast of England", she said, adding that the Isle of Man, where other scenes are filmed, is a "dumpy spot".
