    Waste of money, although would've been worth it if suddenly the lid blew open and he was spinning around in it due to being buried in enemy territory.

    In Guilin, China, there is a mega stage production, based on a character in a movie, which was shot in that area. Very popular show, hard to get tickets.


    I look forward to a Royal Shakespeare Company affiliated theatre, doing three shows a day of Richard III, abridged for busy tourist schedules.


    A show and dinner, just what the American tourist needs. Wake up those bees, we need to make some mead.
  • Good to see that royalist(?) David Starkey getting hot under the collar, with some of the myths being debunked..

    I can't believe how much money they must have spent on this charade. Oak coffin with lead lining! that alone must have cost a couple of thousand. ridiculous.

    Given the money this will bring into Leicester I'd say it is an investment well made.
