I hope this sounds like I mean it to, Snciole, because I want it to: I think you've really become quite a reviewer. That's a really thoughtful, mature and focussed bit of writing, if I may say so . Aww, thanks. I am trying to get better at snappier, sexier reviews 😀

I rather fear he's planning to live forever. Might need Charlie Spencer to return and hunt him down as Van Helsing? I hope he does. Live forever, I mean.

Does anyone know of any ticket offers for the last week of shows?

For those willing to take a chance - if you buy a balcony ticket, there's a good chance the Box Office may move you to the Royal Circle, as that's what happened to me last night!
Clever and well-staged play though some of the audience interaction did take one out of the drama. Nevertheless, recommended.

Hi, I'm a complete newbie to the West End so apologies but this is going to sound thick but I noticed this show ends on Saturday and am a huge game show geek so fancy a trip from Yorkshire to see the 2:30PM show on Saturday, but have no idea where the best place is to sit! Is there a best place?! Ideally I'm looking at the £15 or £27.50 tickets, my nightmare is just being sat behind a lot of heads and not being able to see the action! Many thanks

^^^
Your best bet would be to download the Today Tix app and get some of the £20 rush tickets that go on sale on the day at 10am, which when I bought were prime stalls seats (otherwise £67.50). Looking at the seating plan, there is no way that performance will sell out.

Many thanks Hi, Having seen the show, if you can get some of the £15 tickets in the Royal Circle, you will have a great view. I got a centre seat on the back row there back in April for £15 and had a great view. Though as others have said, you will be able to pick up a very good seat at that price in the stalls as well.

Many thanks You could go for the on stage seating - back row there is £27.50. Great view even from the back row, you're right in the middle of the action (you are forming part of the "TV audience") and you might get invited to take part in one of the quiz shows!

If you are short and slim I would recommend the stage seats which are otherwise very uncomfortable except for the front row of them.

Wholly agree with this comment, my friend and I saw the show from the last row of the Royal Circle for £15 and it was a fantastic clear view, they might be slightly pricier for the last day plus it being a Saturday but still I recommend the view!

I'm intrigued by this show and had hoped to see it before it closed but my plans changed and I didn't manage to get down to London. I'm hopeful it might tour at some point in the future, I'll keep an eye on this thread for updates.

Having grown up with ITV as ‘our channel’, you could say that this is theatre as ITV might do it. Maybe they should commission a filming?

I’ve heard excellent things about the TV adaptation.
Tentatively scheduled for Christmas iirc.

Touring, starting in Bromley on Friday 28 August.
Whatever happened to the TV adaptation they were talking about? Wouldn't that hurt a tour?

Airs on ITV on Easter and just had a big splashy press launch in America.
Has the full schedule for the tour been announced?
