And tonight I'm seeing Stewart Lee interview Alan Moore.

WOO AND MOTHERFVCKING YAY!

I am actually slightly shaky at the idea of being in the Presence of the Greatest Living Englishman.

Yes, this time it was on a compilation tape but I think I own the complete works, and I still listen to them fairly often. They were ace. Someone here used to work with Harrold, but I forget who.

When I first got an account on this ridiculous blogjournalerrrrthing there were only eight people with Molesworth as an interest. I was one and I knew three of the others. I should have taken this as a sign and run away immediately.

Nonsense - it was a sign that you should preach the Way of Molesworth to the heathens!

But if you should preach the way of molesworth, surely you would want to be topp and the terror of st.custard's and put up avva aver pictures of molesworth and not fotherington tomas, who is wet and a weed and deserves the kane.

RUN, do not walk, to your nearest bookshop, and buy Molesworth by Geoffrey Willans and Ronald Searle. It is an essential part of your, or anyone's, education, as well as being one of the funniest books (actually four of the funniest books in one omnibus) ever written.

Do you not read my journal? It's al I could bang on about when I started here. It's on at the Old Vic as part of teh Kevin Spacey season (sponsored by my illustrious employers) We are going on stage the day after and doing our own company panto.

Surely Jammy gives fairly good gurn?

In the book with which I'm currently struggling one of the villain's aliases is Gurn. Makes it even harder to take seriously.

I've just had an offer to go and see the end of run Q&A with Ian and chums on the 18th Jan for pounds two fiddy pee as part of the fact that we own the Old Vic's asses right now. If you would like tickets let me know - I shall not be able to attend as I shall be singing elsewhere.

Date: 2004-12-09 05:20 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] barrysarll.livejournal.com
For £2.50? Yes please!

Date: 2004-12-09 05:27 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] perfectlyvague.livejournal.com
I've just checked - it runs from 5pm - 6pm - do you just want one ticket?

Date: 2004-12-09 05:27 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] perfectlyvague.livejournal.com
and would you be able to scam off work that early.

From: [identity profile] barrysarll.livejournal.com
I can take a half day. And do you need to get it *now*? Because if there's a little leeway timewise we could wait and see if anyone else reads this and hollers.

Its an exclusive staff-only offer that's private at the moment but I believe will be extended to peons forthwith.

Date: 2004-12-09 05:41 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] barrysarll.livejournal.com
Well, I'll let you know by the end of today.

Isabelle would like one too, please.

From: [identity profile] diamond-geyser.livejournal.com
Meee! Mee! Pick me!

I reckon you could pick any number of tickets you want and you'd be able to get rid of them. TWO POUNDS FIFTY?

Put Johnny down for one too, I reckon. Please. Thankyou. Please.

I will get 4. Any more without a Morgan Stanley employee in attendance might raise eyebrows.

Date: 2004-12-09 06:27 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] perfectlyvague.livejournal.com
Right - okay - I have booked 4 tickets. We are in row F. I may not be able to leave work in time, if so I'm sure some other Ian groupie will participate.

When I found out about the Stewart Lee/Alan Moore interview it was one of the VERY few times I've wished I live in That London.
Any idea when it's being broadcast?

Date: 2004-12-09 08:43 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] barrysarll.livejournal.com
As yet, not a clue. But when I do find out I shall be sure to mention it on here.

Oooh, was thst his radio choice for the heroes programme? I thought folk were supposed to pick other comedians.

Good then?

From: [identity profile] barrysarll.livejournal.com
Oh yes - am working on the update now.
I don't think there's any limitation on career - Moore chose Eno. In his introduction, Stewart Lee said something about "B-list celebrities interviewing each other until there's no one remotely interesting left".

Am grateful that the opinions of the verbally stunted tend to be confined to programmes I ignore.

On which train of thought...

Simon Munnery has long been curious about people's reaction to the physically disabled, how impressed folk are that Stephen Hawking's body can hide such a powerful mind. But that, conversely, athletes are so often asked for their opinions. Not that there's anything wrong with an athlete having an opnion. It's just surprising. Like finding a radish in a box of chocolates.
