I hope he's excited and enjoying every moment of his well-earned role. Think of all the children (and adults!) who'll be drawn to MT forever by seeing this adorable man living his dream. Craig is going to be delightful, and I so envy everyone who's going to the show!

Or, if you were John Barrowman: "YES YES YES YES!"

Hi all Long time no see from me in here! Hope everyones well.

Well the countdown to opening night is on \o/ Not long to go before Mobile Joseph bursts onto the stage at the Churchill Theatre in Bromley on the 20th. Wish I could be there to cheer him on!! I am thinking of Craig (and Chris too) and hope they're really enjoying the rehearsals. Bet they're getting really excited now. I see there is still no word about Keith playing Narrator though? Bill K's site hasn't got a full cast list up yet either. Perhaps he may be joining the tour for the Edinburgh dates?? Dunno. But we'll know soon enough won't we.

Still desperate to hear Craigs Big News aren't we. Aaaaaargh! The agony! Hippos if you're watching.....

Hope to see some of you later on to catch up xx

Craigs new thread for the Tour is up now

Good job Trixie!

Gotta make sure everyone gets out and watches our Craig!

hmmm, the Hippos have been quiet lately haven't they...WUWT? Should we send out a hunting er I mean a search party?

KEITHETTE HERE

Craig on BBC Breakfast after 9AM TODAY !!!

Enjoy! x x x

Sorry I haven't been about for a while, Grandma H is in hospital and requires all my free time. Craig has probably been extremely busy the past week as we haven't heard from him. Mrs H set recorder this morning so the hard disk could be full of anything! Just hope it includes Craig.

omg I didn't know about it Kazzie - I've missed it

Oh no. It feels horrible to have missed him on the telly Thanks everso for telling us anyway though xx I'm on the hunt to find the interview right now

(((Grandma Hippo))) get well soon xxx And hello Henry, nice to see you again

Craigs Album coming out in November

SQUEEEEEEEEE! Thanks, Trixie! You've made my day!

It was wonderful to see Craig on BBC breakfast today (thanks mam for the early morning phone call telling me to turn it on )

I was reminded yet again what a truly pleasant young man he is. You get a warm feeling just seeing him speak - he has such a calmness and gentleness about him.

I'm really looking forward to his album release and sending good wishes to him for opening night

Oh No !!!
I missed it, anyone know if it will be put on youtube ?

details please craigettes, what did he say ?

found this on website

anyone know where it was ?


ps Henry hope grandma H is ok

I missed it too dotty

So sad I am

Don't know that either......

omg

Still, fantabulous news about the Album \o/
I can't wait to hear it !!

How are you btw dotty ? Enjoy your holiday?

My bf was supposed to be jumping out of an aeroplane today (with a parachute of course lol) but it got cancelled. Shame for him that was - been gearing himself up for it for weeks as well. I offered to boot him off the roof, with a couple of carrier bags in each hand, but he said noooo, he'll wait !!

I had a relaxing time at home, pm'd you trixie

gotcha dotty

OOh I wish your mum had my phone number too bobbla lol. Aaargh, its awful missing him on the telly when he was right there !

I know exactly what you mean when you see Craig. He is just fab to watch and I love his speaking voice as much as his singing voice He projects such warmth doesn't he. I could kick myself for not thinking of checking programmes for him appearing - he's bound to be on a few this week promoting the tour isn't he.

Please, if anyone hears about anything, we would really love to know. Ta very muchly

I hope Gramma H is ok Henry! Get well vibes sent her way if she can use them!

If Mrs. H managed to get Craig on the BBC then I'm betting you'd be the most popular Hippo around

I hope all is well otherwise in the Hippo world!

Really!! SQUEEEEE!!! Is that posted somewhere or did he announce it on the BBC this am?


Shall I be adding this album to my 'bring back for J' list?

Craig came over really well this morning and yes, he anounced the album which has still to be recorded.

Young Hippo knew about this news last night and tried to phone home, but nobody was there as we were at the hospital. 3 mobiles between us and he didn't think to call them! You could all have been warned about this morning's show. Someone surely has put it on youtube!

Like I'd be willing to wait that extra month. But thanks for the offer!
