That Theatre of Blood was adapted for the stage in 2005 and starring none other than (strangely enough) Jim Broadbent in the role. To be honest, while it works on film I think it would come across as slightly too self indulgent for the stage. But a video of it does exist online so I might give it a look sometime. And Rachael Stirling took on the role her mother (Diana Rigg for those that might get mixed up by the differing surnames) had in the film.

The last guillotine execution occurred the same year A New Hope premiered.

There’s a horror movie called Alien? That’s really offensive. No wonder everyone keeps invading you.

… that Glynis Barber is a Covidiot. Eric Clapton just released an anti vax single today too. And Van Morrison made half his new album about it (as well as anti-semitic and sexist songs too - he's ALL in). Amazing what living with untold millions can do to remove your hold on what reality is. Then again, I've blocked people on FB for this kinda stuff. When my brother died one of my friends sent me a message saying "You must hate China for developing and releasing this". I mean, for God's sake. I have zero tolerance. Even a few on this forum were in the "it's just like a flu" near the start because deaths weren't happening in their countries. Brian May called him and the "sceptics" fruitcakes, which I was glad to hear. Neil Young is also refusing to play big gigs untill promoters assure the safety for the public. So they're not all nuts! Glynis Barber is an irrelevance to me but I hope her husband, Michael Brandon, who I'm a big fan of has more sense.

I’m usually ambivalent about celebrity involvement in things because I’d rather hear from genuine experts. That said, it’s lovely when a famous person agrees with me. Its just so frustrating to see people with a platform - and Ms Barber has a career aside from her acting that gives her access to a lot of people - wilfully peddling wrong information simply because their worldview is discomfited or impacted. Brian May was far too polite, I fear. But we should listen to Clapton: he’s taken enough drugs in his time so he should know what kind of stuff’s any good, right?

I know more than a couple of "Facebook scientists" who want "to know what's in it" (like it's KFC's secret recpie...) and yet...they have zero issues sticking street gear up their noses on a night out....

… that Glynis Barber is a Covidiot. Imbecile she is, my dad died through covid, because of covid his diabetic check ups were cancelled & his kidneys & heart deterioration weren't picked up, i too nearly died because the hospital didn't test dad before discharge & he passed it on to me. When he was readmitted on his birthday he spent final week alone communication with family via phone calls. I'm angry, hurt & broken, let me speak to her I'll tell her the truth about covid & what it done to many families, the pain torment & anger i feel every single day. I don't think I'll ever heal from this Covid has made me very bitter & at the moment I'm grieving angrily.

Hello again
I know Timelord, it’s shocking and hurtful to anyone whose life has been impacted by this awful virus. We have local idiots near us who keep putting up ‘Covid hoax wake up’ graffiti tags.
I think of you and someone in my sister’s family every time I have to drive past it. It makes my blood boil… Best wishes to you and anyone on the forum who have been affected by the actions of these fools…

My blood boils when i hear people saying it's a hoax because i know first hand how i felt having ambulances twice to me cause my breathing deteriorated. Going be long time before i heal from this & i just so angry & heartbroken for my dad, he was a good man didn't deserve go out like that.

It is a sad truth that when things get too big and too terrible, there are people who find it easier just to deny the problem. Or worse, blame the victims. I missed my grandmother's funeral and the funeral of a very close friend's mother because of lockdown restrictions, but honestly, if the measures stops people dying -- good. Outside of my grief, and the grief of our families, the lockdown is -- at worst -- an inconvenience. They're already dead, there's nothing that can be done for that, but I can keep someone else alive by staying home. So, in that position, why wouldn't I? It shouldn't be more complicated than that.

Might get future BF releae via Amazon because last 2 months with several incomplete orders & now had wrong box set dipatched.
I know covid been a issue but this shouldn't account for poor customer service.
Alo roughly tenner cheper per box set via Amazon so think after this year wait 2 months for future releases.

If I still bought physical releases I would put up with the longer wait as Amazon sadly more reliable.

Arrow Video, 88 Films & Amazon never had issue always arrived on time & orders complete, lately had several missing items & now wrong product dispatched, i understand covid had knock on effect with delays but when they do dispatch items at least dispatch what i ordered complete. Very poor at minute, i prefer give my business to BF but this carries on I'll wait 2 months purchase from Amazon, got First Doctor Adventures Vol 5 £26 compared to £35. War Master 6 dispatched 27th August still no sign of it.

...that it is not a good idea to casually glance at your emails at three in the morning when your phone pings lest you fall asleep wondering why Big Finish are emailing about the Ninth Doctor's second boxset...🤦♂️
