Firstly, a couple of plays last Saturday in London:

Red - 5/5
Teriffic play about one of my favourite artists, Mark Rothko. Alfred Molina turns in a stunning performance. I would recommend you go see it, but it finished on Saturday...

The Misanthrope - 3/5
Keira Knightley's stage debut is proof that yes, she really can act. All in all, a great ensemble cast, especially Knightley, Damian Lewis as the titular misanthrope and Tara Fitzgerald. Unfortunately, Martin Crimp's re-working of Moliere's satire is pretty flat in its second and third acts, which drags it down somewhat, but it's always livened when Lewis is on stage.

Yesterday's TV:
