It's time to get real - it was our culture which enabled Brand
RUSSELL BRAND did not create the lad culture of the Noughties. That was us. We nourished a culture 1of leaked sex tapes and upskirt pictures of female celebrities \"falling out\" of nightclubs, a world where women were asked to laugh along with rape jokes but still branded as sluts for having casual sex at all, a time, in short, of overt sexual permissiveness a permission which was only really granted to men.

Funny star Ferran does such a lot with this latest Doolittle
I'M slightly baffled as to why Richard Jones chose George Bernard Shaw's 1912 class-system satire for his latest, stylised revival, but it features two extraordinary central performances. It's a joy to see Patsy Ferran bring her exquisite timing and elastic physicality to the role of Cockney flower girl Eliza Doolittle.

Welcome back, Brixton. How we've missed you
THERE must be people in London who haven't been to the Brixton Academy, in the same way there surely must be people who have never seen Holland Park at dusk or walked along Brick Lane at dawn, but are they real Londoners? Up until it closed in January, the Academy was one of the most iconic venues in the city, a place that always looked incongruous among the toy town terraces of Stockwell Road, a gigantic spaceship of a ballroom hovering south of the river.
