Vickster51 - Victoria

What on earth happened to Cote Brasserie in UK?! Just had two mediocre courses, “frites” that looked & tasted like overdone oven chips. Felt cheap. A real shame thinking about what this used to be like. Plus service to me as a solo diner was noticeably less attentive than others.

Its Bank Holiday Monday here today so its movie music hall of fame countdown most of the day on @classicfm.com @globalplayer.com - who would / did you vote for? (And can you guess mine?!) #MovieMusicHallOfFame #MovieMusic

I was sad to miss seeing it on the big screen.

It’s a film and still on my list to watch, which I think I can do now it’s on MUBI!

Celebrating Shakespeare – My favourite Shakespeare productions (so far!) It’s that day of the year where we say Happy Birthday to England’s most famous playwright, William Shakespeare and at 461 he remains as important to the world of theatre now, as he was …

Happy 461st Birthday William Shakespeare! I thought I’d reflect on some of my favourite theatre productions to celebrate! vickster51corner.wordpress.com/2025/04/23/c...

I haven’t started yet. I’m more keen to do what you’re doing. Can’t wait for Andor!

I saw that show and wasn’t going to and then Denise Gough appeared in the trailer and I’m in.

I’ve done! That was pretty great. Impressive how fast I was invested in the characters.

Oh I’m so very tempted. She’ll never tour on the UK & I loved this album…..

I’m getting really sick of the U.S. insulting us all the time.

I watched 12, then went to bed.

Just finishing ep.11.

Agreed.

Not yet. I’m still catching up on it before reading anything.

Okay, as an original fan of ER, I’m picky about medical dramas, but #ThePitt is great. A great group of characters, although I admit, I can’t not think that this is Doctor Carter!

I really do hope #ThePitt (which having now started it, I agree is excellent) gets people to watch ER. No medical drama has ever gripped me as much, but this is the nearest that has come to ER since.

Seeing as I loved the JL one, does it mean I won’t like this one?

YouTube video by vickster5001 Sherlock S3 Ep 1 Filming St Barts #1 SPOILERS

It’s 12 years today since the BBC Sherlock team had Andrew Scott rock up to filming of s3 ep1 and film this fake scene with Mark Gatiss to throw all of us off! I was never completely convinced, but wasn’t sure the BBC would be that smart! youtu.be/gSZF0ObIruw?...

Did seeing Torvill & Dean skate the Bolero live again make me a bit emotional? Maybe 🥹

Spent my Sunday afternoon watching Torvill & Dean skate on their final tour. Begging my parents for tickets to their 1994 tour is still a big childhood memory. Shame it was just me there today, but I’m glad I went. They’ll always be the greatest to me!

Theatre Review – Jamie Lloyd’s Much Ado About Nothing – the most joyous night at the theatre so far this year! Last night was my 3rd trip to Jamie Lloyd’s latest Shakespeare theatre production and although it’s now in its last week of performances, I couldn’t let it end without sharing my …

My theatre review of the most joyous show in London so far this year! I'm going to miss this one #MuchAdoAboutNothing 🩷🎭 vickster51corner.wordpress.com/2025/04/02/t...

Just opened the incredible #Succession complete soundtrack collection from
Nicholas Britell
which has been waiting for me at my parents! And it’s gorgeous!! 🥰🎼🎶

Can’t imagine life without experiencing live theatre, more so since lockdown took it away. I’ve seen so many incredible shows, actors, learnt about new worlds, true stories, vital topics & met lifelong friends. Here’s 2025 highlights & a couple all-timers too! 🎭#WorldTheatreDay

My top 4 TV shows of 2025 so far:

Saw the fantastic Animal Farm @stratfordeast.com at the weekend. It’s now at Leeds Playhouse & will then be at the Nottingham Playhouse in April. Highly recommend you go if you can!

Maybe he’s had a strop and turned it off.

Another UK theatre production heading across the pond. Our theatre in this country is truly something to be proud of.

Thanks for the tips. I’ve not seen some of those.

Oscars 2025-My Predictions (and who I’d vote for) I admit, with everything going on in the world at the moment, I’m less excited than I usually am for one of my favourite nights of the year – Oscars night, but I’ve seen most of t…
