For a bit of happy, I belatedly listened to Adam Buxton’s interview with Paddy Considine. Such a delight. If you are a fan of Hot Fuzz or House of the Dragon there’s some nice chat. But one of my favourite films is 24 Hour Party People , and Considine shares some fantastic behind the scenes stuff about filming in the Hacienda Club and scintillatingly spooky synchronicities. Great listen.
Ashley Norton’s exhaustive accounting of the Andrew Lloyd Webber Cinderella debacle(s) is quite the watch! Musical theatre is a giant blindspot in my knowledge, so having someone so witty and passionate as a guide to these events was helpful. But in addition, the sheer gall of the preening Lord himself to advocate for West End workers while really finding fault with COVID-policies because it impacted his profits…look, this is quite the journey.
Give it a watch.
