Hollywood writers' strike ends

US film and telly writers will return to work this week after the Writers Guild of America reached an agreement with the Hollywood producers bringing to an end their three month long strike over digital royalties. The deal means this month's Oscars should no go ahead unhindered. As previously reported, the strike caused the Golden Globes to be cancelled. Concerns it may also impact on last weekend's Grammys were overcome when producers of the music awards show reached their own agreement with the WGA.
