Grant, whose film credits include The Iron Lady, Dracula and -- quite memorably -- Spice World, most recently top-lined the Doctor Who Christmas special.

“The big activity is among girls. The folks at NameBerry say Marnie is suddenly hot because there is a character named Marnie on an HBO series,” Williams said Friday on NBC’s Nightly News.

Williams didn’t note the character was his daughter, but there seemed to be a slight twinkle in his eye as he reported the news. So, was this report the stolid news anchor's version of the humble brag or Williams' demonstrating he's the consummate professional by not explicitly mentioning his daughter?
