   LOL, yep. Adam & Joe reviewed that also, and said there were people walking   
   out the cinema, they were that aghast. Apparently Burton has missed out the   
   main theme to the film though, which is just another of those weird but   
   major mistakes he seems to make in his films... (well, at least in Charlie &   
   the Chocolate Factory he cocked it up a bit by trying to drive a moral   
   angle).   
      
   It will be fascinating to see the film, as I took part in the musical 23   
   years ago at my comprehensive school. It was quite simply the most lavish   
   school production I have ever seen, with some stunning performances. I think   
   I can just about say that as I was too young to be in the main cast.

   Amen to that.

   I don't mind her, but she's a bit OTT in her British-ness - and that's   
   coming from a Brit.

   Will do.

   Nick: I don't think about that much with one shot anymore, Mike.   
   Michael: You have to think about one shot. One shot is what it's all   
   about. A deer's gotta be taken with one shot.
