The reviews are glowing for the production and its entire cast, but I can't help but be thrilled for Lee that he receives such universal praise for his Caractacus. It's also lovely to hear from Lee himself in his video interviews with Aimee Vivian (right), Nancy Stevens (below) and Alan Wooding (on the Bedford Today website) how much he is enjoying the role. Read the press reviews in full HERE.
