Saw this advertised yesterday. Apparently it was John Sullivan's next project before he died, his son and Paul Whitehouse doing the writing. Big fan of Whitehouse so hope he does a good job. All the main characters will be in it.

Casting won't be easy.
Apart from Trigger, if Dicksie3 is available

Whitehouse hasn't been funny since the 90s, this is going to be an awful shithouse of a show.

Paul fucking Whitehouse. He's going to have to up his game about 15 levels to do this justice. Should be left alone.

Words really cannot express how little I want to see this. Hope it tickles fans though.

As a general rule I don't like musicals...there are a few exceptions but not many I can think of off the top of my head...
Anyway, last year I got some free tickets to see "All or Nothing" the Small Faces musical - as I work on the south bank in the culture sector loads of tickets for stuff come my way.
Jesus fucking wept - it was a horrorshow...I wanted them to draw the curtains and call the police.
I had to go to The Coach and Horses in Soho afterwards to recharge my soul

I have no idea how anybody could sit through a musical. A musical film is bad enough, but who in their right mind would waste a trip to the theatre on such a vulgar and degraded genre?

ive been to a few. My Fair Lady was the best with Anthony Andrews in the Harrison role, Russ Abbott playing the Holloway part and Patsy Rowlands as Mrs Pearce :.)
the Madness one was also good, with Suggs narrating

Everything remotely decent has to have the joy milked out of it. Just leave it be. Nurse is right of course, musicals are the absolute dregs of entertainment.

a much better bet for the West End Theatre will be " All About Eve " - starring Gillian Anderson and Lily James. Also in the new year. .
