surprised they haven't done anything for St George's Day/Shakespeare's birthday yet, unless they haven't got round to it!

they've certainly had a good week, what with the Chaplin and yesterday's, which will be hard to beat, although personally I've always thought that there was something rather creepy about Chaplin, I think it's the moustache!

Ive loved that story since I was a child, and still love introducing it to my students, who get to act it out with such relish!
