[QUOTE="Mel O'Drama, post: 254925, member: 23"] I can understand that. Last night I watched the bonus features on the DVD which show Vic playing Mrs Overall (on Julie Walters' bingo nights :D). She does a nice enough job, but things feel even more off-kilter when the only originals playing the same characters are Celia and Duncan. It would have been great if Vic could have played Berta in her two performances a week, but that could have got really confusing and I can understand she might like the challenge of giving Mrs O a go. Plus I wonder if Berta's songs were written with Sally Ann Triplett in mind, who has a huge West End voice. Mind you, I was very impressed with Vic's belt at the end of [I]Macaroons[/I], which was even better than Julie's. Oh great. Were any of the originals in, or were there different actors? I'm fairly sure I saw the version with Sara Crowe in the theatre. Oh goodness. It was so well done. Having served on a number of committees for different things it's just spot on. I never cease to be amazed by how threatened people can be by small changes or when someone else gets praise or credit for something. Oh - then I probably have seen him in this. But a long time ago. Thanks - I'll add it to my bucket list. [/QUOTE]
