Oh, it's very easy, MAB. The masses of migrants don't tend to string themselves out in large groups across the entire width of the pavement And I wouldn't have thought they spend that much time wandering around central London, though I could be wrong about that.

I've concluded that some people just tend to respond to visual cues rather than auditory ones (not just in Beauty). I'm often left thinking "Why on earth are you applauding there when the music is clearly indicating that we're not finished?", and it's usually because there's something visual which seems to prompt it - the end of the pdd in The Nutcracker being a case in point.

Have tried this on Internet Explorer and Firefox in recent days without success. Anyone else managed it? (And I'm sure you used not to have to go into Full Editor to use it).

There was one started before the referendum, I think - but I think it was locked.

Sergei Polunin - news and discussions

Not only that, but in the season in which he left the RB he had a large number of debuts scheduled: something I only really registered in retrospect. Needing to work on all those roles might have left little space available for him to fit in other projects. -

Upcoming DVD/Blu-ray Releases
alison replied to charliewise's topic in Ballet / Dance news & information
I'd like to think it was an indication that the recordings would all actually get shown on terrestrial TV first, but possibly that's a little optimistic. Next April would give time for a Christmas showing ... -
It wouldn't be the first time that a corps dancer has been pulled out of a solo role because they are short of dancers in the corps for whatever reason.
