Haven't read the thread back so sorry if this has already been discussed, but Alice and Ruthie on the Magic Radio broadcast are driving me nuts...why do they sound so bitter?! Also...they seem shocked that Harry Potter isn't a musical...because it's got music in it? Are they actually being serious? *face palm* Yeah they've mentioned this a few times. So bizarre. Yes there is loads of music in the play. I love the music in Harry Potter and wish they would release it but it is clearly NOT a musical

Far too much Harry Potter here. And Billie over Glenda - really?

Now we know why ITV has scheduled the Olivier Awards for peaktime ITV. They didn't want King Lear or The Glass Menagerie.

I wasn't aware that even Chanel Haute Couture got nominated. Oh God They would not be seen dead there The SOLT can only dream of attracting that sort of prestige To compare have a peek at a typical Chanel show It's all very pretentious, like when they give their bags away free to people like Victoria Beckham.

Still think it's a bit petty to put it in the Best Entertainment and Family tbh. We might argue it's not a ballet, but to put it with Cinderella is unfair

Really made up for Rebecca Trehearn a delightful actress, who has worked he socks for little reward in the past, finally got the recognition she deserved.
But the same could be said about Emma Williams, she her number will come up one day.

Oh I am OVER THE MOON to see Andy Karl win. What a simply sensational performance he gave, truly deserved. As were awards for Rebecca Trehearn and the kids from School of Rock. Much more 'diverse' 2nd half Though I'm sure I will come up to speed with the dominance of Harry Potter when I see it at the end of next month!
