Nice discussion – I agreed with David Benedict about Grief and wonder if I saw the same play as Charlie Spencer “nothing else has affected me as much this year”. What did I miss? Nice play and anything my Mike Leigh is worth seeing but I felt it was a 1 hour play stretched out to two. Other points I’d like to make about the video but not publicly.
Well done though!

Excellent discussion, in our review we referred to it as “unrelentingly bleak, almost to the point of sadism”. There is strong acting but a slight monotone to the plot.
