We get into the Christmas spirit still further tonight as we're going to see The Ring And The Rose at the Hen and Chickens, Islington. Starring Paul Keating of Closer To Heaven fame, it sounds like a riot. Camper than Christmas. The Guardian says:

This delightful musical is based on William Makepeace Thackeray's comic novella about an unfortunate fairy gift of two talismans - a rose and a ring - that render their owners utterly desirable.

Since when has Keating needed any help in that direction?
