I’m going to save Quality Street wrappers this Christmas - it might make things easier next year! #strictlycomedancing #tessdaly #dressliketess Jodie Halford I did it!

Not too taxing this evening so I’m not sure why it took me about three hours to get round to doing it! #dressliketess #StrictlyComeDancing

Don’t judge me but V is doing a taster afternoon at Emil Dale Academy and there are limited things you can do in Letchworth for four hours! I’ve bought some wrapping paper so all that’s left is a large coffee and a sweet treat!!

The Importance of Being Earnest National Theatre is absolutely brilliant! It’s the traditional script - which is wonderful anyway- with some hilarious modern twists. It’s just joyous! Superb performances all round - I loved it. Can you tell?!

IMHO this is the ONLY thing to do this afternoon! #elf #ChristmasMovies

Really enjoyed Jamie Lloyd’s The Tempest with Sigourney Weaver as Prospero but should mention Mason Alexander Park as Ariel who was just brilliant throughout! Fabulous! Loved the spartan set and lighting design as well.

This was the view from my window at nearly midnight last night. It’s either the Thameslink works (the rail line is a couple of miles away) or aliens have landed!

Cinderella and the Glass Slipper BEAM Hertford was gorgeous - a lovely traditional panto with all the elements you love, excellent performances and original songs. And they have done absolute wonders with the theatre. Completely remodelled, it is a fantastic new venue!

In 2015 Caroline Jones ⁦Caroline Jones⁩ wore charity clothes for a year and raised money for ⁦Cancer Research. It changed her life but it also changed mine! I have lots of lovely clothes found in charity shops! It was lovely to revisit her story! bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

I can’t remember what the name of this storm is, I’ve lost track to be fair but it’s hitting #letchworth hard so I’ve found sanctuary!

Always enjoy a trip to The Odyssey Cinema and We Live In Time is both funny, beautiful and heartbreaking. There was a Q&A afterwards with the film’s writer, Nick Payne, who it turns out is from St Albans. We are so lucky to have this gem of a venue in our city! #weliveintime

'The Hack' delves into the phone hacking scandal at the News of the World and the investigation into the unsolved murder of private investigator Daniel Morgan. Led by David Tennant, Robert Carlyle, and Toby Jones this impactful 7-part series is coming to ITV & ITVX

Am definitely visiting this exhibition ⁦Hertford Museum⁩ - what a fascinating lady. And I remember the Spitting Image puppet! bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

I somehow managed to watch the whole thing this weekend because I couldn’t stop! Really interesting to hear from the actors ⁦Danny Fullbrook⁩ #toxictown #netflix bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

What’s going on Morrisons? Cancelled our order yesterday, had to order a takeaway. Rebooked for today and now told it will be three hours late and arrive about 8pm. Ordered more takeaway. Using you is costing us. This is also happening to others I know. Are you having problems?

While V was at Emil Dale today I went to the Broadway Cinema to see the Twiggy film documentary. It’s a fascinating look at her life and how she has dealt with everything it has thrown at her - I now think she’s amazing! Plus it’s a gorgeous venue so I’ll definitely be back!

Farewell Mister Haffmann Park Theatre - excellent. Fascinating, powerful, riveting, thought-provoking play and funny. Superb performances all round and some bonus tap dancing. It is basically just a lot of my favourite things in 90 minutes! #farewellmisterhaffmann

Back Broadway Cinema & Theatre today. This time it was Wes Anderson’s The Phoenician Scheme. A beautifully shot film, nothing wasted, nothing there by chance. Great cast. Completely bonkers. Really enjoyed it! #letchworth

Aah - Christmas content planning. These are my people!

I really hope that everyone visiting Wells-next-the-Sea, or anyone going to a beach really, reads this by Neve Gordon-Farleigh bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
