Squeel! The first pictures from the Love Actually sequel are here

It's really happening! The news that Love Actually was getting a sequel (ten minutes and on TV but you know, work with us here) was announced yesterday and predictably, the internet had a freakout. Now, the first images from filming behind the scenes have been revealed, courtesy of Emma Freud, the scriptwriter who came up with the goods for the film we all know and love*. The Cosmopolitan ladies spotted that Emma had been sharing the images on her Twitter account and oh my God, it's just too exciting. There's our Liam, or Daniel for the purpose of the film. Also, Sam played by Thomas Brodie-Sangster!

Olivia Olson (Joanna) looks gorgeous, hanging out with the man of the moment, Richard Curtis.
