First of all - I am incredibly pissed off about the fact that Bill Nighy isn’t even nominated for a Tony Award for his performance in The Vertical Hour. Extremely pissed off. I have no words for it really, if that wasn’t award worthy acting then I don’t understand a thing. Kevin Spacey (Moon for […]

Spider man 3

Spiderman 3
The first in a long row of blockbusters hitting a cinema near you this year is Spiderman 3. I loved Spiderman 1, was less enthusiastic about 2, and number 3, well …
(there might be some spoilers ahead)

Baker Street, London

Again something I first noticed when I came home and had a proper look at it.
Can you spot it?

Summer in London

My break from the theatre has been long enough, I can’t just not go to the theatre because I don’t want to lose my memories of the Vertical Hour, so I went tonight. Unplanned, impulsive - business as usual.
And I know I said I hated musicals, I do, Spamalot was the exception. But I had […]

Bob Dylan

It’s one of Steffen Brandts favourite songwriters.
Richard Curtis likes him too.
And Bill Nighy is obsessed with him.
I like and respect all of the above 3 men, so there must be something about him.
He is a legend.
I really started to like him when one of his songs was featured in a play.
Yes that play.
My […]

Eye’m in the red for you

It doesn’t matter where you’ve been – how far
It doesn’t matter how run down you are
Or if there’s nothing perfect left in your heart
No, it all means nothing, it all means nothing, it all means nothing at all, at all
I’m on the edge for you
Losing my head for you
I’m […]

Snow in London

View from my morning train …
What a pleasant surprise when I walked out of the door this morning. While I was expecting palm trees to be popping out of the ground soon, London is a bit white in stead. And it’s amazing to watch the differences between a city like Aarhus in […]

While Kevin was giving a Spacey performance in the Old Vic, I went to it’s younger brother, the Young Vic, a bit further down on The Cut. Recently reopened and kicking off with a season of fresh new plays. Love and Money was very different from Love Song, a nearly naked stage, and quite a […]

Love Song

Love Song with Cillian Murphy,Neve Campbell, Kristen Johnston, Michael McKean
When is a play good?
In my world? When it still hurts when I leave the theatre.
This was a good play.

Rayners Lane

OK, so I left work at 5pm, because I thought 2 hours and 15 minutes would be enough to travel to the end of the world. Or the end of the tube map rather, I needed to go to Uxbridge which is the end of the Piccadilly Line, there were the trains drive of […]

Harrods, London

Cairo?
No, London.
The British Museum?
No. Harrods.

Remembrance Day London
Lot’s of paper poppy flowers.

Spike and Whitey in Regent Street

Spike and Whitey in Regent Street
We have a serious problem.
What, what do you mean?
She absolutely hates Christmas.

Breaking and Entering

Here is film number 3 entering the list of films with top ratings, one you simply have to see:
Breaking and Entering
Rating:
That was the short version.
If you want the longer version, including reading how it was to […]

Spamalot, Palace Theatre, London

Spamalot, the Monty Python musical finally opened in London 2 days ago, after a successful ride (Tony Award) on Broadway.
I am normally not that crazy about musicals, I tend to find them boring. But Spamalot is not your average musical, it kicks ass. It takes the piss out of every musical […]

Anti Beauty - Battersea Powerstation

I loved this building from the very first second I saw it. Today I saw it from close by.

Posh Girl
It is not the type of shop I normally would dare to set foot in, Hawes and Curtis. But I have been looking in their windows quite often, because I love their shirts, both on men (especially when worn under a suit) and for women. They had sale now, all women shirts for half […]

The day started early, we wanted to catch the early sunlight on the first pictures. At 7.00am I stood up and wondered if we were going to see any sunlight at all. London was having a shower, not a regular one, a massive one. A shower where you can hear the water hitting the streets. […]

Bill & Steffen

Wishful thinking
6 months in London. Gosh, time goes so fast !
(Nonsense alert, and Steffen and Bill are there, so be warned).
