1:55:06
Thank you, Miss Braham.
1:55:11
Is that everyone, Seymour?
1:55:13
- All present and correct, Mr Gilbert.
- Good.
1:55:15
I won't keep you, ladies and gentlemen.
1:55:18
We're all extremely tired
and looking forward to our beds.
1:55:24
Observations. The use of fans,
particularly in Act One...
1:55:27
...was flabby and erratic.
1:55:29
- Very scrappy.
- Indeed, D'Auban.
1:55:31
We shall address this tomorrow afternoon
at two o'clock, Seymour.
1:55:35
Two of the clock.
1:55:37
Ko-Ko's entrance.
Mr Kent and Mr Cunningham.
1:55:39
Please ensure that you do not flinch
at Mr Grossmith's sword.
1:55:43
You must have confidence that
he is not about to chop off your heads.
1:55:47
Even if it may appear
that that is your inevitable fate.
1:55:50
I take it, Mr Grossmith...
1:55:52
...that today's performance
was an aberration.
1:55:57
Grossmith!
1:55:59
I beg your pardon, sir.
Were you addressing me?
1:56:02
I was indeed, sir. How are you?
1:56:05
Quite well, thank you.
1:56:07
I believe a good night's sleep
will cure all ills.
1:56:09
That I took to be the case.
1:56:12
Your performances were,
on the whole, promising.
1:56:15
Which is more than can be said,
alas, for that of the sliding doors.
1:56:20
One of which might have
thought it was in Japan.
1:56:23
The other was labouring under the
delusion it was on holiday in Yorkshire.
1:56:30
- Where was the man?
- Rest assured, Mr Barker...
1:56:33
...that tomorrow night
he will be with us in Japan.
1:56:35
Capital.
1:56:37
Now. Cuts. There is only one.
1:56:40
In Act Two, the Mikado's song.
1:56:48
- I beg your pardon, Mr Gilbert?
- Yes, Miss Brandram.
1:56:50
Surely you can't mean Mr Temple's solo?
1:56:54
That is exactly what I mean.
1:56:57
- I do think that's a shame, sir.
- It's a dreadful shame.
