Gillian Anderson as Edwina Mountbatten and Tanveer Ghani as Jawaharlal Nehru in the film, Viceroy's House London, Feb. 18: The jury has always been out on whether the warm relationship between Jawaharlal Nehru and Edwina Mountbatten was platonic or not. It was, according to Ashley Hicks, the grandson of Lady Mountbatten and Lord Mountbatten, the last viceroy of India. They had Indian food in the viceroy's house for the first time and my grandmother insisted on at least half the guests at meals being Indian." Lady Pamela Mountbatten, now 87, was married to David Hicks, an interior decorator and designer, from 1960 until his death in 1998. "Last year we had dinner with Hugh Bonneville, who is playing my grandfather in the film Viceroy's House," confirmed Hicks.
