I caught all but the first few minutes of the programme. The overall impression I had was that the production was like a curate's egg. The plank-walking scene was very well done, I thought.
It seemed that 'Swallows and Amazons' had been chosen as a vehicle for bringing in the non theatre-going Bristolians to the Old Vic. Nothing wrong in that so long as the integrity is preserved, but i suspect that is was not. The show is not for me.
