I don't think programming starts until 2pm so maybe try then as I retuned my boxes and it wasn't showing yet.

Didn't come up when I persuaded my husband to retune this morning. Hope I can get him to try again later.

Mine has come up now , just need to retune anytime from now on. It must not have worked until the channel started today at 2pm.

Danny Dyer was mates with Harold Pinter??? Of course, and you can see why, he's like a Pinter character. It's also why he appeared in the Pinter at the Pinter season.

I retuned to get Sky Arts. Saw a documentary of Faberge which from the day-glo colours and fuzzy focus looked as if it had been made in 1980. I shall persist as I believe they have the rights to "Inside The Actors Studio" which is so bad it's good.

We watched the best Saturday night telly for months last night - Queen at Wembley, Stones in Hyde Park followed by Madness documentary. Will definitely keep an eye on future offerings.

Les Mis 25th anniversary concert on tonight at 19.10 I retuned my box and recorder for this, looking forward to it. Great to have theatre shows on Freeview, hope it's the start of many!

Madam Butterfly from Covent Garden was a nice way to spend a Sunday morning. I'd no intention of watching it all, but she managed to hold my attention for 2+1/2 hours.

Well, we weren't planning to but Hubby and I watched the Les Mis concert.
Why oh why Nick Jonas?
Frances Ruffelle forgot her dress!
Colm was phenomenal!
It was bittersweet, I spent 3yrs working on the show at the Palace, nice to see alot of "my" casts on stage, BUT, I want to be working again!
It made me miss Theatre, I haven't watched anything that has been streamed while I've been on furlough for just that reason.
We'll watch Phantom next week. I'll probably cry.

You really notice how shouty Les Mis is when it's done in concert form. Norm Lewis really made you want Javert to come out on top for once. Alfie even more dead behind the eyes than ever in this format.

And good to see Susan Jane tanner, and a reminder of what Madame T was before the character became so panto.

The South Bank Awards will be broadcast at 8pm on Sunday 20 December. I don't want to give the game away, but a certain world-famous theatre is one of the winners. 😉 It's so good at what it does, it was actually competing against itself!

We've got our Christmas TV guide already, and I think my recorder is going to be permanently set to Sky Arts - so far I've found Jesus Christ Superstar, Cats, Miss Saigon and Billy Elliot!
