Amazing. I love this Greek tragedy and it needs to be staged immediately. It has brought cheer, welcome distraction and entertainment to my morning which is currently a bit grim and depressing because I’m writing about a new ITV documentary featuring a cold case murder. The victim’s husband is very disturbing. The Greek tragedy is a welcome relief and is very clever too.

Oh I’m so glad to bring you cheer and good god that sounds like quite a bleak topic to write about. Good luck with it and pls take regular breaks to watch stupid videos/read Greek tragedies xx

I’m so sorry! We had a similar misfortune at Barrio Soho. We’d ordered an appetizer, and when it came, asked our waiter, “This lovely garnish— is it edible?”

Next thing I know, I’d poisoned my dad and put my eye out.

I remember seeing this absolute travesty on instagram and I shared it with all my friends, who immediately joined me in "It must be Bloody London" as hardy north adjacenters.

Genuinely shocked for you here, I would donate to OxCom (OxFam but for comedians) if a video of you getting your tiny pot of guac and sad face made it to TV. "For just seven pounds a month..."

Oh, the substack live sounds fun, but you'll be doing the Taskmaster Podcast with Eddie Gamblino at some point presumably, so that'll tie in too

despite my initial "is this going to rhyme all the way through? ...fuck", i believe this play deserves a BEGOT (BAFTA, emmy, grammy, oscar, tony) minimum
