FOOTLIGHTS: THE ALL-STAR RETROSPECTIVE

Celebrating the 125th anniversary of the legendary Cambridge Footlights, BBC Radio 4 is recording three special shows featuring a roll-call of stars whose careers were launched by the club.

Looks good. I've booked my tickets.

It would be helpful if you gave us a link, some further information, really, just, anything. :)

I got one of those ticket things by email.

I'll try and find it.

Did anyone go to this? I had tickets, came up from Brighton to go to it this evening only to be told when I got there it was already full. Gutted! Did see Ben Miller (of Armstrong and Miller fame) walk into Boots on Tottenham Court Road though which made the evening less crap!

I didn't make the effort - lazy bastard!

Ouch. Drill Hall, I assume?

Yeah was at the Drill Hall. First time I've been too late for a show. I'll be gutted if there was a great line up for it.

Was that for the first or second show?

Ah, lovely Ben Miller...
You should have gone in too. People buy all sorts of interesting stuff in Boots.

It was for the early one.

zooo - I was tempted to go in, at least just to tell him how much I love his show. But we were a bit pushed for time, and I thought it might be a bit weird.

Maybe should've stayed for the second one. I'm sure Aaron would have put you up.
