Paul Bettany's Busy Christmas

Paul Bettany and Jennifer Connelly were kept busy this Christmas (11) after hosting 25 of their friends for the holidays in Vermont.

The Wimbledon star has compared his hectic festive season to "running a hotel" - and has vowed never to tackle such an ambitious task again.

He tells Britain's The One Show, "We had this place up in Vermont and I invite the whole of England, all of my friends, over.

"We had about 25 people living there for about two weeks. We do all the cooking and cleaning - it's like running a hotel.

"It's a nightmare, I'm not doing it anymore!"
