I was working at the PJF Festival in Covent Garden, London, on Sunday and it was a pleasure to see Richard Coombs' Punch and Judy show again. We worked together at the Buxton festival earlier this year but this was the first time Richard's new show had been performed in front of Punch and Judy men on mass. And he went down a storm with some very inventive ideas.

Richard seemed to have half of the British TV puppet scene in the audience including Nigel Plaskitt, Simon Buckley, Francis Wright, Geoff. Felix, Ian Thom and a number of other performers and builders from a variety of Hensons and Creature Shop projects.

As and when I get some pics online I'll let you all know.

Best,
James
