Rebel without applause

Spotted the Heff in Stratford M&S. He's not even in the RSC at the moment, I guess at some point actors just develop a pavlovian need to hunt the yellow-stickered sandwiches on a Saturday afternoon.

Last time I was in Stratford-upon-Avon I saw them setting up prop barbecues for the GoT play, so now if I don't see a future National Treasure at least lightly toasted on one I'm just going to be disappointed.

If "HONK HONK IT'S THE GOVERNMENT HERE, DON'T HAVE A BARBECUE" continues like this all night, Andy Burnham'll be out of a job quicker than Liz Truss.

If anyone was wondering where we are with my ongoing transformation into a nan: I've had to buy a nice cardi because the aircon in the office is too cold.

All the Almeida publicity for Cleansed is going "it's a once-in-a-lifetime chance to see it!" The National did it ten years ago so whose lifetime are they thinking of, a Victorian chimney sweep's?
