If you’d like to see a man made of holly* coming up the Thames on a boat – and I have just had 37 emails requesting exactly such a thing, which admittedly is something of a coincidence – then I suggest you watch the video below, which shows just such an occurrence occurring a couple of weeks ago.
And if you’d like an explanation of why, visit Mr Nimbos’s blog.
*plus flesh, bones and all the usual stuff
To the New Ambassadors Theatre last night to see Whipping It Up, a comedy about Conservative Party whips written by Steve Thompson.
The play was pretty funny – the first half slightly more so than the second – with a few jokes that had we Lib Dems in the back row laughing particularly knowingly at. Robert Bathurst (from Steven Moffat’s Joking Apart) and Richard Wilson (from Steven Moffat’s Doctor Who and the Empty Child) deservedly took top billing in the cast of six. I noticed that the role of the junior whip – played by an understudy – was usually played by Lee Ross, from EastEnders, The Catherine Tate Show and Steven Moffat’s Press Gang.
The play is set a few months into a Cameron government with a small majority, and I’d recommend it, especially to politicos.
