To The Garrick for the opening night of Sir Ken's Romeo and Juliet.

[Sir C]

I'll tell you what Clive, if it's set on a Peckham council estate in 1989 I'll be ****ing livid.

I once saw A Midsummer Night's Dream set on some roadworks on the M1. I left at the interval.

What I want, right, is breeches and flouncy sleeves.

Cant you just nip round for a Weekend at Berni's if you want that?

I was on about the breeches and flouncy sleeves. And drinking cider on a roundabout knocks Billy Shakes' ouvre into a cocked hat, surely

Isn't Ken a bit long in the tooth for Romeo?

Yes, I gave that the wholehearted swerve when I saw that little **** Mitchell was involved. Is it as bad as one would imagine?

I actually fell asleep watching it - I tried my best, but when it became apparent the Will Kempe character was actually supposed to be doing a David Brent impression I rather lost the Will* to live
