I know Aled is doing Chitty in the summer but does anyone know how long the show will last as I have to get a train back to Portsmouth and that decifers whether I see a matinee or evening performance.

 Thanks. Rebecca

Hello Everyone, Can you tell me when everybody was getting together to see Aled? All I can remember was that it was in August!

Thanks Todd, but it was to see Chitty Chitty Bang Bang actually. I must admit it would be lovely to see Aled at Lincoln although its not the best place to get to from Gloucester!

Thanks again Lesley x

Hi Lesley,

                 I was talking to Carol last night, and she told me that there was a post on the old forum regarding a "get together" for CCBB. It was posted by "Welshbird" and can be found on this page of the old forum : http://bb02.sov.uk.vvhp.net/aledjones/YaBB.pl?num=1186145168/30

I dont know if all the tickets have already gone for this, perhaps someone else knows about this gathering?

Bye for now.

Todd.

Hi Lesley

 I've put my name down with Maria to see CCBB in August all being well.  Just waiting to hear whether she's got the tickets.

Discussions, meeting arrangements etc for Chitty Chitty Bang Bang are welcomed here...

(please consult the Jul/Aug/Sept 2008 event calendar for details of this event)

(This thread was re-created and spliced with earlier discussion posts now moved from the calendar thread. Some posts and this header post are out of sync, but it's not possible to correct that unfortunately) 

On browsing the Wales Millennium Centre's website, I found this trailer of CCBB that they have onsite. Whilst it's not the actual production that Aled is starring in, it's great to see parts of the musical many of you will be seeing in August.

That is my cousin ,Emma Williams , as Truly Scrumptious , Susie

 It is a fabulous  venue , I was there a few weeks ago to see Half a Sixpence , Bill Kenwright's show , in which he wanted Aled to star . 

Thanks for that Susie

 I'm hoping that the planned Forum Outing is going to take place.  Maria, if you read this I've just sent you a PM.  I know other people are keen to find out whether we're still going ahead.

Susie , you may remember me posting about Emma on the old Forum  . She was the ORIGINAL  Truly and that is her in the Video clip  , alongside Michael Ball .

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emma_Williams_(actress)

As you can see she was in the launch  cast of CCBB  and  "she was the youngest ever female lead on the West End and won an award for the Most Promising Newcomer."

 To the best of my knowledge she won't be in Cardiff show , she left  CCBB after about 18/24 months .
 

Dear All,

My apologies for not contacting you all sooner but I have had difficulties registering and logging onto the web site with the new forum.

I am still planning the trip to CCBB and there are still places available if anyone is interested.  Please send me a PM if you would like to book the show.

Maria

Hello Maria, Its lovely to have you back, you have been missed. i certainly hope to come.

Take care Lesley x

Hi Maria

 I've sent you a PM but you don't appear to have picked it up.  I still want to have a ticket for CCBB. 

 The PM system here isn't very clear and the only way I see to pick them up is to click on In Box next to Help at the top of the page.  You don't get a message when you receive a PM which seems daft.

 Anyway look forward to hearing from you.
