Ah, it means the codes are invite only. So not everyone can use the code, only if it was sent to you.

No Mans Land - that Gandalf guy has such an awesome set of acting chops on him, whilst baldy stewart does his usual gawking turtle. They work off each other marvellously.

Was at the cinema, so these guys were 20 feet tall.

I've got tickets to go and see La Strada at the Belgrade in Coventry on the 13th through ShowFilmFirst. It's the third time I've gone now through ShowFilmFirst - the other 2 performances were a musical and an opera, which I wouldn't have gone to usually. Both were brilliant and I'm really glad we got the chance!

Anyone else going to see La Strada?

Amadeus - awesome show, if you get a chance, see it. Only drawback is a bit saucy at times.

Saw She Wears Scented Rose on opening night. A very enjoyable thriller that leaves you guessing right to the end!

saw Philanthropist. Generally good cast apart, plenty of faces off tv you'd recognise, think the guy from that sixth form comedy, chick from Not Going Out and the Berry guy basically playing himself. Lily Cole was odd one out, a bit stiff. First half funny, especially with Berry on stage, 2nd half a bit of a struggle to be honest.

Saw Out of Order tonight in Manchester and really enjoyed it. Classic Ray Cooney farce, lots of misunderstandings and falling trousers, extremely silly, but expertly played and great fun.

Plus there was a lovely tribute to Manchester led by Shaun Williamson as the cast took their bow after the performance.

Clean Bandit review -

"DUMPF!-DUMPF!-DUMPF!"

"and here our new song from the new album!"

"DUMPF!-DUMPF!-DUMPFF!"

"and next heres our love song!

"DUMPF!-DUMPF!-DUMPF!"


repeat for one hour.

oh there was some support from a girl called louisa johnson, one of those tv show contestants, whose backing singers were much better singers than her. She sung 4 songs lol!
