Long running show?

"This year, Hugo Myatt (Treguard) will once again be directing AND starring as King Rat in the pantomime Dick Whittington, but this year at the Wyvern Theatre, Swindon. The performance runs from Friday 13th December 2000 until Saturday 11th January 2002."

I found that rather amusing!

Imagine having to spend over a year with Rainbow's Geoffrey. Hugo doesn't deserve that. No-one deserves that.

Except maybe Rod, Jane and Freddy for their crimes against music.

:o... lol!

Better get that fixed me thinks

Will anyone here be going to see it? Bit far from me :)

I'd really like to go and see it this year since I missed it last year. But I think it is a bit too far for me to travel too, which is a real shame! Especially since I will be missing Geoffrey Hayes, damn! ;)

I saw Geoffrey Hayes do a special Rainbow show, at the Edinburgh Festival earlier this year. I would have much preferred to see Hugo though. But he wasn't doing a show... :p

Just think - Knightmare at the Edinburgh Festival. Now there's an idea!

LOL I've only just realised what people have been talking about with Dickon and damn and such. I knew i was missing something

For it to censor damn is a little excessive, imo. And the rest need to be taken in context. It's just lucky the pantomime isn't advertised as Dick Whittington.

Clever things, these forums.

Unless you're cleverer than them to suss 'em out ;)

What - like this: "damn" ? ;D

GrimaldineGrimwold · Post by **GrimaldineGrimwold** » 23 Nov 2002, 22:14

Even if the forum allowed otherwise, I think I'd still call him Dickon now.

Illusion · Post by **Illusion** » 29 Nov 2002, 00:08

I've edited the default censored words list on this forum, so the words dick and damn should work.

Er, right...

JamesA · Post by **JamesA** » 30 Nov 2002, 17:09

Well, "thingyon" was definitely funny for a while ;D

GrimaldineGrimwold · Post by **GrimaldineGrimwold** » 03 Dec 2002, 19:19

Awww, I go away for a few days and come back to find all my Dickon references changed.

Now I'll have to go back and manually change them to thingyon.

On a serious note, well done for changing it to reflect common sense.
