Delightful, Ben! As you know, I have always loved musicals but have been relistening to the classics. In nostalgia terms, only yesterday I was to back to my Lower 6th in the gym for Fiddler on the roof; to Simon Church, playing one of the sons in the magnificent opener, ‘Tradition’. And CJP and Fizzy Osmond, Walker, Weston and Hugh Todd. One I have only recently got into is another Porter, ‘High Society’. If there’s a more life-affirming duet than Bing and Ol’ Blue eyes in ‘Well did you ever’ put it my way. Wonderful. And since one can’t get nostalgic without thinking of Dennis, I saw it with him, Madeline, Malcolm and his Mum in the open air at Regent’s Park .. Magic
