    We're rooting for @mustbejp to win @MasterChefUK tonight! He's here in Islington next Sunday with #Stripped - through film, music, poetry, song and dance, John shares his story and in turn asks the audience to consider theirs. ow.ly/N7YV30m0MvY #CelebrityMasterchef

    INTRODUCING OUR CHRISTMAS SHOW ❄️Gwyneth Goes Skiing❄️ A Goop-founding Hollywood superstar. A retired Optometrist from Utah. One ski collision - and then a court case. This is a story of love, betrayal, skiing, and (somehow) Christmas. Opening 13th Dec. pleasance.co.uk/event/gwyneth-…
    Linus Karp and Joseph Martin pose as characters Gwyneth Paltrow and Terry Sanderson. Linus is a white man who wears a pale pink ski jacket, a shoulder length blond wig and pink Ski goggles on his head. He smiles smugly and holds a black candle with a sticker that says ‘This Smells Like A Lawsuit’. Joseph wears a grey suit, white shirt and purple tie. He has narrow framed glasses sitting down his nose which are slightly wonky and red bruises on his face as if he has just been in an accident. He grimaces. They pose in front of a snowy mountain background.
