Favourite moment from The Empty Child that flew over my head the first time I watched it: When Nine sits down with all of the kids having their stolen dinner, and guesses what Nancy’s been doing during the air raids.

Nancy: Is there something wrong with that?

Nine: Wrong with that? It’s brilliant! Not sure if it’s Marxism in action or a West End musical.
