  1. @LinMM, is it my imagination or was it a bit faster than in the video? I am almost certain it was.
  2. Oh my gosh! Yes! Thank you!
  3. My youngest dd still regrets not being able to do the dance route. She’s almost thirty. I regret it for her and for myself. We both enjoyed our degrees but I think if dance is in the blood, it’s there for life. I don’t know how to advise you, @Lemongirl. It’s a very difficult choice. I would just like to wish you and your dd the very best of luck. x
  4. I loved him and Kenneth Williams on “Just A Minute!” Deviation! RIP.
  5. That is very sad but dementia is such a terrible thing that I am sure his loved ones can only rejoice at his liberation from it. I miss both my dear parents but I would not wish them back if it meant prolonged suffering from this awful disease. Rest in peace, Terry, and thank you for the laughter you gave us.
  6. Claire Calvert of the calm and sunny disposition was our first Lilac Fairy and I remember it fondly.
  7. Oh, it did, Blossom! We could feel Gary Avis’ tenderness for his partner, Bonelli, whom I adore, was on fire and as for Fumi Kaneko herself, I am lost for words. She was a brilliant star last night and I was in tears in several places. I love Kristen McNally too and the scene with her and her rat accomplices was so much wicked pleasure. As for the final act, the cinema audience broke into spontaneous applause the whole way through it, a thing I have never experienced here before. Bravo, Royal Ballet! You’ve done it again!
  8. They aren’t at our Odeon. It’s obviously preprinted before the Royal Ballet announcement.
  9. Oh no! I love Fumi Kaneko but Lauren Cuthbertson was devastated not to finish her performance on Saturday and I really wanted to see her.
  10. It’s pretty complex for adults so I don’t think children could follow it.
  11. I hear you, Lin! I do too since I broke my knee. I’m not allowed to kneel on it anymore and I forgot for about three seconds yesterday when I knelt on our lovely soft bed. My left knee has been telling me for the past 36 hours that it was not a smart move.
  12. My daughter works for the NHS and watched nearly all of her bank staff get cut last week as well as several full time employees yet they are still supposed to cope. If one person goes off sick, everything collapses. I hear you, @Picturesinthefirelight
  13. I hope so. To quote Marie Kondo, for me Vadim Muntagirov sparks joy when I see him dance.
  14. Exactly, just as Osipova was kept in soubrette roles.
  15. The only time I ever saw Darcey Bussell dance was when she danced in Sylvia which was one of the last scheduled performance by her apart from her final one.
