Stylish Films: Spencer
We have an endless fascination with Diana, Princess of Wales, one which shows no signs of abating despite it being 24 years since her untimely death in that Paris tunnel at the age of 36. Earlier this year we were enthralled by series 5 of The Crown, and Emma Corrin’s portrayal of the young Lady Diana Spencer as she was courted, then married to Prince Charles, and now it it the turn of Kristen Stewart to play a slightly older Diana, one at the crossroads of her life with Prince Charles, in the weird yet beautiful film Spencer. Spencer is set over three days at Sandringham around 1991. It starts…

9 To 5 Is Just Fabulous At The Alexandra
Since the end of lockdown and the reopening of theatres, The Alexandra, Birmingham, has served up a fare of fun, feelgood shows that have been designed to make you smile, laugh and sing-a-long, pure joy anecdotes after 2020/1. Last night this continued with the return of the Dolly Parton smash hit ‘9 to 5’, the story of three women working in an office environment who finally have enough of their misogynistic boss and take revenge in the best (and funniest) way possible. Violet, Doralee and Judy all work for the odious sexist Franklin Harte, but with very different experiences. Violet is a long standing, brilliant employee, a widow who is…
