Dick Whittington - The National Theatre on you tube until midnight 27 December - free.

I was going to see this in the New Year but chances are that is not now going to happen - but here is your chance to go to the panto and one I too am going to take. Tell you what I think once I have watched but in the meantime make a date yourself to watch.
Performed in the round in the Olivier this is very much a South Bank affair and not at all like any pantomime I have ever seen although Sarah the Cook does get a rather splendid Full Emglish dress to wear. One of those shows about which you can make up your own mind this being the season of goodwill to all men. Won't cost you anything except your time after all. Personally if it came to awarding stars I would probably subtract. Bah humbug!
