It seems a long time ago now but Elvis did a live TV broadcast from Hawaii. A billion plus audience. Big success for all concerned. The Stones could do it; a small club venue in London. Won't happen of course.

A BBC report today states that in a worse case scenario 80% of people in the UK could be affected by the virus and a best case scenario is 20%. These seem VERY high to me?

Am amazed that in the film's publicity Mick is almost given equal top billing. From what I am aware his is almost a cameo role. Still, if his name raises the film's profile, so much the better. Hope to see him getting more film roles and more projects from Jagged Films which has been pretty quiet of late.
