The Modern Creche: Lobsters Required


One of the many nice touches in Love Actually are the references to today's school Nativity play. You may remember that Emma Thompson's daughter is assigned to play a lobster, while a lovestruck Hugh Grant later helps escort a child in an octopus costume to the same theatrical event. When my daughter was in the primary school Christmas play, she was a space alien. The standard roles have truly evolved.
