The real-life model for New Music Weirdo is a friend of mine!  That however is not something I didn't know about you.  I wasn't sure if the coincidence of those two identities was widely known. |

Nobody I know in the biz is in any doubt, tinners. |

Coincidentally, 'Claire Goose' was the title of the opera Britten was planning shortly before he died.  |

I've never heard of her either! Neither had I! The tone of that Wikipedia article seems to go rapidly downhill from around this point onwards: She has an older brother called Duncan, who is an entrepreneur who started up the "one water" company where all the profits go to the roundabout playpumps in Africa. |

Who's Claire Goose?
I thought she was jolly good in Waking the Dead. Actually I'd probably go so far as to say that her on-screen death marked the end of what was, for me, an unmissable run of episodes  |

I found myself yelling 'Noooooo!' at the screen when she, er, went. Interesting casting as part of that dysfunctional team |

I liked Claire Goose in Casualty long before she was in Waking the Dead.
I once went to a concert at the school which Simon Rattle's kids attended.
I met Max Bygraves.

Anyone who finds his facial expressions while conducting just a little bit scary? |

His first lot of kids, I presume, not the two little ones he has now with Magdalena Kozena? (Which school? I'm curious....) I've been to things at the school Simon Rattle attended. |
