Just watched in Cardiff, it was phenomenal
@@Nick_the_antzzzzI was there! He was phenomenal!!
Saw it with this production in Liverpool then had to see it two nights ago in Edinburgh, it was that good! We were on our feet long before this excellent duo take their bows. By the time the lights are brought up for the curtain all, the entire audience were already on their feet cheering and applauding! It happened both times in two very different cities so that said a lot for them. It’s the best cast and production I’ve seen of the show over the years. I’m so glad you enjoyed yourself!
What a show tonight and thought Matt couldn’t get any better , never disappoints. He’s definitely a Brummie 🤣❤️
Como me gustaria ver esta compania!
