The Jody Comer fans were out in force on Twitter last night, claiming she's the greatest ever actress, so beautiful, a goddess, why isn't she a Dame, etc etc. I particularly liked the one who praised her stunning performance, even though they admitted they hadn't a clue what it was all about!

Baz has just reported that it's postponed until 2022 as Imelda will be filming The Crown in 2021.

Got through to ATG on the phone, morning of 6th May. Got the "We’re pleased to confirm your refund has been processed. Please note your bank or payment provider may take up to a further 7-14 days to recognise the payment." email today.. I received that email today too. Let's see how long it takes. Showing on my account today. That's my last ATG refund, thank goodness.

I really don't know. It all depends on when I can pluck up courage to catch a bus, a train, another bus, sit in a crowded theatre, and repeat home journey in reverse.

Makes no difference to me. I'm over 70 so I'm staying put. Nowhere to go anyway, shops etc (and obviously theatres) remaining shut.
Can't help noticing, though, a few weeks ago people were up in arms at the thought of everywhere suddenly being closed, no jobs to go to etc, and were desperate to know how quickly they could go back - and now they are up in arms at the thought of actually going back.

It sounds too much like Bee Gees number from the 70s.
Also, can I encourage people to not entertain the idea of self-hairdressing. I've ended up with something resembling the drunk Tom Hardy style, but without all the physical attribute to compensate. I look like a lop-sided haystack.
I haven't tackled the scissors yet, but look like Grayson Perry (as currently seen on his art programme on Channel 4). Desperately in need of colour, cut, conditioning, everything really. I could (and probably will) trim my fringe and sides, but am afraid of ending up with a mullet!

'Stay Alert' is the sort of advice you are given when being warned of pickpockets in the area.

I don't believe it. An hour holding on, finally got through and then cut off mid sentence to a person, just as I was giving her my details. Now what? Called again this morning. Nice lady, but working from home and not able to process refunds (although I told her I knew several people who had received theirs). She has put me on a list, to be contacted re the refund in a couple of weeks! The one last night was all set to do it until the phone went dead. I despair.

All my refunds were on my credit card, so I'm now paying for stuff I wouldn't normally put on the card, just to get rid of the credit balance. I think there will be plenty more to come when shows scheduled for the summer are cancelled or postponed. "Free" groceries for the foreseeable future! How boring is that?! Just checking that you know that if you have a credit balance on a credit card you can request it to be transferred to your bank? Might be preferable for some. Yes, I have heard about this. I think if it was a holiday refund or something much bigger I would request a transfer, but as the refunds turn up in dribs and drabs I will leave them as they are. I'm sure I will think of something more interesting to buy shortly!
