Socks mentioned in the Telegraph. Oh and new gigs

 My thanks to Hazel & Tm in Edinburgh for bringing this to my attention. The Socks get namedropped in an article in today's Telegraph:


There’s an amusing gag in the performances of the Scottish Falsetto Sock Puppet Theatre (look them up) in which unexplained and unconvincing events in Doctor Who plots are dismissed with the line, “I’ll explain later”. It reminds me of politicians’ over-confident predictions that there’s no need to worry...

It goes on to knock Labour and the SNP. It is, after all, a column in the Daily Telegraph. But hey, we get a mention. By the way, if we ever have used that line, we've lifted it wholesale from Steven Moffat in The Curse Of Fatal Death. But always happy to take credit when it's going.

And while we're on, how about a look at the shows the Scottish Falsetto Socks have coming up this spring. We're touring the Eurovision Sock Contest, and here's where you can see it...
