So that was the London Burlesque Festival...
Last night saw the closing party for this year's brilliant London Burlesque Festival. Am sure head honcho Chaz Royal will now be sleeping for at least three consecutive days…
The Guardian's fab entertainment editor Paul MacInnes posted this video in which he sort-of attempts to learn burlesque from Chrys Columbine at the London Burlesque Festival – not as easy as it looks, although he works the satin glove a treat! – and chats to British Heart about the rise and rise of boylesque.
Flew back into London just in time to catch the closing party, highlights include Stella Plumes' witty banter as fashion show hostess and Agent Lynch's costume malfunction – dealt with like a true Moneypenny, just rip the thing off!
Roll on London Burlesque Festival 2010! Until then, what was your highlight?
