So that advice I gave to Zak Crawley seems to have done the trick, just like it did with Ben Earl.
If anyone is in touch with the Charlton Athletic back four I am available for consultation at a very competitive price.

"So, shall I begin the Christmas story?"

"Absolutely, as long as it’s not that terribly depressing one about the chap who gets born on Christmas Day, shoots his mouth off about everything under the sun, and then comes a cropper with a couple of rum coves on top of a hill in Johnny Arab land."

Thanks so much for having me on the show, I really enjoyed chatting to you guys. Sad to hear that you are bringing things to a close but they say to leave them wanting more so your timing feels right. Exciting to learn there is a new project on the horizon as well!

On the left is me after an abscess sent me to dental hospital last night. It reminded me of Baldrick after his encounter with the Spanish Infanta. Why am I telling you this? Well, today my 55-min podcast interview on Blackadder S1 is live. Listen here: shows.acast.com/663dc3b21f99...

“I've come to think of you as a sort of son. Not a favourite son, of course, Lord no, more a sort of illegitimate backstairs sprog. You know, the sort of spotty squit that nobody really likes, but, nonetheless, still fruit of my overactive loins.”

"Marmalade Sandwiches" is street slang for ketamine.
They've done a Paddington musical and it's supposed to be very good but the bear looks like it's on drugs

Because this is from Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are *Dead*, and is about acting, this is making me think about the ending of the Sopranos (which I watched yesterday). Cos it’s meta: a “character” sometimes just stops being on stage, on your TV, in a series, in a play.

Exit.

And that’s death.
“--it's not gasps and blood and falling about---that isn't what makes it death. It's just a man failing to reappear, that's all ---now you see him, now you don't, that the only thing that's real: here one minute and gone the next and never coming back...”
