Damian Lewis and Helen McCrory at Albion last night! Went to a really nice poetry platform at the NT last night, at which Helen McC was reading and Damian L was in the audience. It finished at just before 7pm so they must have cut it tight! The platform was really warm and cosy and middle-aged, and the fact that I enjoyed it so much made me realise that I am now the elderly audience that younger theatregoers get irritated with - so treat any future comments on productions with due caution!

Ah it was Thursday night I meant for Albion - they were a very cute couple I thought and were holding hands throughout the show!

They nearly made it into the bad behaviour thread, as they arrived right at the last moment. This reminds me of time when ALW was at Kinky Boots previews. Sat in their seats after the first song, left their seats seconds before the interval started and came back to the auditorium as the first song of the second act was starting. ALW left at the interval of Spend Spend Spend when I saw it back in 2000.

This is really bugging me...
Last night at Kith and Kin at The Bush there was a striking looking actor who I've seen in a few productions over the years (many NT I think.)
He was tallish, in his 70s I would think, with long white hair and full white beard. He was a dead ringer for Gandalf or Lear (definitely not McKellan or David Weston, though!)
Any ideas who it could be?

Random spot but I'm pretty sure I saw Liam Doyle in the Cov Cineworld foyer tonight. Although he's in the Legally Blonde tour at the mo so who can say?

I think it was Press Night at 'Everybody's Talking About Jamie' last night so I don't think it counts but I did see Dan Gillespie-Sells, Vanessa Feltz and Tony Blackburn. Names names names.

Is Lloyd Grossman still a “celebrity”? I wasn’t going to mention seeing him at The Arcola last Friday night, but now he’s stalking me. 3 days after the first time I’ve ever seen him, he turns up at a Charity Fair I’m helping at in the Guildhall. A coincidence you say? Just how naïve are you?
I much preferred it back when my stalker was Sophie Ellis Bextor. At least she only showed her face in the theatre, where I could feel safe amongst the crowd.

I don't think this counts, but many years ago I was at the Adelphi for Me and My Girl. The National Anthem started to play and in trooped the Queen Mother. It was her birthday.I didn't manage to get a piece of cake though!

A coincidence you say? Just how naïve are you? He's keeping tabs on your movements so he can work out the best time to break into your house when you're out for some filming for Through the Keyhole.
