    I had lunch with Cat Deeley once. Well, she sat opposite me in the staff canteen at C4 but I'm claiming it.

    We went last night with the 3 kids and loved it. Gets you into the Christmas spirit!

    Was tempted by that but it's local to us in February, which seemed a bit pointless for a Christmas thing!

    Hope it's good!!
  • We went to see Titanique last week 
    it is the biggest load of crap I’ve ever had to sit through at a theatre ( I say that because we were marooned in the middle of a stalls row, otherwise we wouid have walked) - it’s really just aimed at gay people which is fine but not totally obvious from the reviews. The script and jokes are childish unfunny drivel

    Completely surreal experience, where 30 mins in something actually went wrong and the show was suspended for 15 mins!

    Not their best show, but enjoyable non the less.

    Saw this today. Glad I saw some of their others to get the in-jokes, less slapstick than their other plays but altogether very funny and enjoyable. Henry Lewis is a comedy god

    Went to Esher Theatre last night to see Sleeping Beauty starring Bobby Davro with Debbie Arnold. Sleeping beauty is quite a boring pantomime and now glad I chose not to get tickets at the palladium with their price tag of over £200 notes per ticket.

    Rockettes Christmas show at Radio City tonight was stunning.

    To be fair mate, I go to the Palladium for the unadulterated smut and double entendres, couldn’t give a shit about the story!

    I paid £100 row M in the stalls, so 12 rows from the front - perfect.
    By the way The Palladium version is about 1% to do with Sleeping Beauty.

    Tried to get tickets for tonight at the Palladium through an actor’s website (from Culshaw) but all sold out. Instead we went to our local Marylebone theatre to see David’s husband. It’s a very powerful play and only on a short run. Highly recommended.

    Seeing Paul Zerdin there reminds me of an amazing night at the bexley comedy club a couple of years ago. One Friday night we went and the bill was fairly average, only to be told that one of the acts whose name escapes me was not attending and they had a replacement, upsteps Pail Zerdin, incredible that he appeared in this small local social club, turns out the organiser was a personal friend and he called in a favour at short notice knowing that he wanted to test new material, a great night and totally unexpected.

    Going in early February, are front row seats still available? They can be cheap.
