Weird show last night. It was our first non-sold-out performance but actually it was ninety percent full so I'm not disapointed. But things didn't seem very lively; didn't seem like we were getting a lot of love from the audience. But afterwards everyone I spoke to was most effusive, even the people I didn't know. It's funny because I've been doing shows like this for over 10 years and you always get some audiences who love it, just not very loudly. But that's never good enough - you want people demanding oxygen before you think it went OK! I think the contrast to last week when people were really up for it maybe makes a difference. I'd still give the show 7 out of 10.

My golden rule of improv is that you cannot blame the audience for bad suggestions. But blimey we got some stinkers last night! Ultimately though it's down to me as the anchorman to get the audience going and try and avoid using the really complicated/rubbish/obscene or "witty" suggestions. But if you don't get anything else you're stuck. And it's up to us to make the most of things - so I think we have plenty to learn from last night.

Best thing was the changes we have made to the format of the show - the running order and the general logistics of it all are really working. People were all saying how slick it was and it really is starting to feel that way. All the performers have been blooded now - Jamie Reid made a cracking debut last night and everyone is comming to grips with what is required and starting to see all the opportunities we have.

The other good news is we should have broken even on our run! So our last show should be pure profit!! Oh Joy. Oh Rapture
