Sad news that the legendary Brian Murphy has left us. 20 million weekly viewers watched Brian as George Roper in Man About The House and later George & Mildred. He was later a regular in Last Of The Summer Wine. He played variety legend Old Mother Riley to great effect on stage and screen. RIP.

Not theatre related but an unapologetic plug for Rob's book on British wrestling legend Giant Haystacks (New Zealand & Australia: Mighty Goliath USA & Canada: Loch Ness Monster) The giant you know, his story you don't.

We are so sad to hear that Linda Nolan has passed away. Perhaps the most recognisable of the Nolan sisters, she radiated beauty inside and out. A pop icon and leading lady forever. RIP Linda, shine among the stars dear lady.

Happy new Sister Act album day. Beverley Knight leads a wonderful cast including Lizzie Bea, Alison Jiear, Lesley Joseph and Ruth Jones as the Mother Superior. A lovely festive surprise.

We are loving Smoggie Queens on BBC I Player. Set among the LGBTQ+ community in Middlesborough, it stars Mark Benton as Mam. Give it a whirl, laughs a plenty.

So did everyone get their dose of #Wicked movie this weekend? We adored it, Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande are on course for a stack loads of awards, as is director John M. Chu. One of the best stage to movie adaptations ever. We are looking to the Western Sky for part 2 already!
