Musicals stamps

So, what do we reckon of these Musicals stamps, then?

They're out tomorrow. Given that I heard on the radio Brian May was launching them, publicity is guaranteed. Is that their only plus? Or is it something Britain really does very well?

One positive I can see: Thunderbirds got HUGE press - front page of the Times, for example. If this issue does, too, could stamp collecting get a slightly better public image?

If I were Royal Mail, I'd have them on sale in theatres. Reports from anyone who goes to a London show, please!

Not impressed in the slightest.

Hi Stewart. Can you be more specific?

Why was "The Mousetrap" not featured, as the longest ever running West End show, although not strictly a musical, but is Monty Python's Spamalot?

It is specifically a Musicals issue though, so I think they're in the clear on that one.

Nice set of stamps. Will be awkward to find on cover as they will all be in Australia above base rate. I bet a lot of the 'Spamalot' go to University students for birthday cards... Spamalot is a musical!!!
