'Allo 'Allo!

posted by [personal profile] katherine_b at 03:23pm on 04/07/2007 under
Ever since Heidi left (and in fact before she came) on Sunday, I have been watching 'Allo 'Allo. I have series 1-5 on DVD and the rest on videos of varying and somewhat dubious quality. Yesterday after work I drove to Monbulk just to purchase a copy of Rene & Me by Gorden Kaye. I have also just hunted out my 'Allo 'Allo war diaries.

There is, of course, a perfectly simple explanation. Listen very carefully. I shall say this only once.

I am going to Brisbane on Sunday for the single reason of seeing the stage show of 'Allo 'Allo starring *drumroll* Gorden Kaye (Rene), Guy Siner (Lt Gruber) and Sue Hodge (Mimi). It also has Chloe Dallimore, who played Ulla in The Producers in its recent Australia tour. I presume she will be playing Helga, although the website I have linked to above does not include Helga in the list of characters. I can't believe she won't be in it though.

Can someone who has seen the show on stage tell me about it?

I didn't even know there was a stage show! I'm all jealous now.

We actually had a discussion about 'Allo 'Allo in one of my lectures a few months ago and people were really divided on it, with more people disliking it than I would have thought. There's a girl from Norway on my course and she said that people in her country would not find 'Allo 'Allo funny in any way at all and that it would never be shown on TV there.

*lol* Actually, it was shown in Norway NRK 1 and it's apparently very popular. It's also shown in Belgium, Croatian, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Hungary, Latvia, the Netherlands, Poland, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and, of course, the UK. And that's just Europe!

LOL! I love that line :D
I hope that stage show turns out to be really good :)

Ooh, may I borrow Rene & Me once you've read it? And I'm going to need to re-watch the final episode if I'm ever to write that fic I was musing about over the weekend... (I also want to write one about Rene and Gruber, because Rene does go out of his way to save Gruber a few times, and they have a complex and therefore interesting friendship.)

*lol* Yes, you may, once I've been up to Queensland (in case there's a chance for him to sign it).
