Thank you, Ba - you have given me the nudge that lets me know who Moist reminds me of (or should that be "of whom Moist reminds me?" Grace will probably tell me).
So Stainless Steel has been upgraded to Golden Suit - long live the confirmed villain - as a veteran pantomime actor, I can confirm that villains are much more fun to play than heroes (Oh, and if it's a traditional pantomime, the villain does not have to wear fishnet tights!).
Just to add - one of my favourite characters is back - Adora Belle Dearhart - I am one of those odd people who having given up smoking many years ago (about 18 years) for personal reasons (in this case, a woman who wouldn't sleep with me unless I gave up) but still believe in the right of others to smoke - I just love a character who can ignore all the "Thank you for not smoking", "For your health and comfort you will not smoke" signs and a ring of ashtrays being put round her - if this was real life I would probably challenge Moist to a duel for her hand in marriage - who wants a weak-minded woman?
