Re: Sore throat remedies

I'm sure you left something out of your post there, Holland park - "in my opinion". Clearly not one shared my millions of people. But even you cannot argue with the longevity of his voice despite intensive use over the years. Seriously, get your hearing checked mate :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:...

Re: Sore throat remedies

Saw Rachel Tucker in Wicked last night , she was AMAZING =D> =D> =D> =D> . I always thought she was very talented on "Nancy", but I was still blown away by her performance. Louise Dearman was also excellent as Glinda. Lee Mead was also good, suits the part. Interestingly Lewis Bradley was ...

La Bete

Went to see this play yesterday and i had wondered if the reviews had over-hyped how good it was - but they hadn't :D /. It was one of the best "straight" plays I have ever seen - a superb production. Mark Rylance's character had a 35 minute monologue which was amazing, a real acting tour ...

Re: Unusual Names

The thing is, Chace Crawford doesn't have that unusual a name. I mean, he spells 'Chase' wrong, but Crawford's a fairly common name, and so is 'Chase' in the US. I mean, if they weren't famous, the names Brad Pitt, Will Smith or Elizabeth Taylor wouldn't raise an eyebrow. However, Sigourney, Demi, ...

Re: Unusual Names

I know that a couple of drama schools told my DD she had a good, memorable name at her auditions (its double barrelled, but other than that not that unusual)

Re: The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo

I think DC can look weather-beaten though - He is good at being chameleon-like, and can look different in different roles. But I agree, can't have too much of him - and I speak as someone who had THAT picture (coming out of the sea, speedos, in Casino Royale) on her 50th b'day cake :oops: :oops: :oo...

Re: London

Well the good news is that DD has found 3 other girls who are all lovely to share with :D :D . They really "clicked", spent about 3 hours together and have "talked" on facebook and she is very hopeful it will work out with them. The bad news is that they still don't have anywhere...

Re: London

As always I have been overwhelmed by the help and advice from members - thanks everyone :D Going up tomorrow - exciting times.
