The Thick Of It

I'm excited like a giddy schoolboy - they're filming The Thick Of It here at the office. I just went down to the lobby to be treated to the sight of my hero Armando Iannucci, high grand master of them all, and assorted cast members.

I wasn't sure what to do with myself at this stage, so I kept on going, through the revolving doors, past Chris Addison and someone else I vaguely recognised. Still wasn't sure what to do, so I headed right to where Grauniad types usually smoke under the protection of the wavy front of their environmentally well-meaning new building. I tried smoking my phone, but it was fairly acrid. Someone shouted "cut!". Maybe my phone smoking wasn't naturalistic enough.

Then I came back.
