The Shakespeare Code

A TRIX-FLASH

Brothers and Sisters of The Shakespeare Code,

Your Cat was slinking her way through FASHIONABLE West London………

…… to buy some smoked haddock for the boys back at Code Headquarters……

…….(my kedgeree is to DIE for)….

…….when who should she bump into but……..

…the HUGE STAR….

…..and Shakespeare Code Fellow……

MAGGIE OLLERENSHAW, F.S.C.

She gave the SECRET CODE SALUTE………

…… whereby Fellows of The Code acknowledge each other……

And then said……

How’s tricks, Trix?

Your Cat told her of her latest coup……

…….uncovering the TRUE IDENTITY of the Willobe his Avisa author…….

See: The ‘Willobie’ Author Revealed.

No mean Elizabethan herself, Maggie listened with INTENSE interest….

Then Your Cat asked Maggie what SHE was up to…..

AND YOUR CAT WAS BLOWN AWAY BY THE NEWS!!!

MAGGIE IS TO REPRISE HER WORLD-FAMOUS RÔLE AS…..

‘WAVY MAVIS’…..

……in the CELEBRATED sit-com…

 ….OPEN ALL HOURS….

But then a thought struck Your Cat……

…….like thunder….

How can that be, Maggie? Sir Ronald – as he should have been – no longer walks among us…….

Maggie smiled her famous, gnomic smile…..

The show will be set in modern times, Trixie…..

Arkwright, the store owner, has died……

……and left the store to his nephew, Granville……

……played by Sir David Jason, who is still very much among us.

There will be a photograph of Arkwright in the shop, which Granville talks to…..

….. and we watch Granville become more and more like his uncle.

So the SPIRIT of Ronnie Barker will be there….

Just right for Christmas…..

Your Cat, unable to contain herself, leapt in….

And screened WORLDWIDE…

And made into a series….

Magggie smiled her gnomic smile again…..

And put her finger to her lips..

Bye now, Trix. Be good….

…..she said……

…..and was off…….

….. into the heady hubbub which is Maida Vale….

And it’s…..

‘Bye now…..

…. to you,

Brothers and Sisters of The Code…

…..from Trixie the Cat….

…..and YOU be good as well!
