In retrospect it seems stupid not to have also seen on of the shows when Victoria Wood played Mrs Overall, but I guess at the time I thought there'd be loads more opportunities to see her. It also makes me realise how uncritical I am with people I really like: I really enjoyed this, but Victoria clearly didn't because by the time it went on tour she'd rewritten quite a lot of it. Stupidly I didn't see it on tour. At least I was smart enough to buy the DVD which I must watch again soon.
