Video footage from Mr Foote's Other Leg has been uploaded to Vimeo. The video appears to be of clips from a trailer, but as far as I am aware, no trailer for Mr Foote's Other Leg has ever been shared. The show continues at the Theatre Royal, Haymarket until January 23rd 2016. See it if you can. 

It was also great seeing Mr Foote’s Other Leg in its home territory — the Theatre Royal Haymarket is where much of it is actually set. It’s one of the best new plays in town, with a fantastic cast led by Simon Russell Beale (pictured left), Dervla Kirwan and Joseph Millson and featuring a scene-stealing turn from the ever-irrepressible Jenny Galloway.

Some great reviews from the press night of Mr Foote's Other Leg at the Theatre Royal Haymarket this week have been shared online.

Joseph Millson, though much taller than the real-life actor, gives Garrick a measure of the gravitas with which he sought to elevate the social status of the profession as well as friendly bon homie and just a touch of his disdain at the way in which the incorrigible Foote undermines all sense of propriety.

Joseph shared a photo of the Haymarket Theatre this morning, as preparations are underway for the opening of Mr Foote's Other Leg at the Haymarket Theatre on Wednesday 28th October. Tickets are available from here.  The play had wonderful reviews at Hampstead.

It's good to see Russell Beale snarling with vulgarity like a raddled old pole cat as he belittles Joseph Millson's handsome Garrick for his devotion to the Bard and Festival project in "Stretford," or trades affectionate insults and crude gossip with Garrick's doomed lover, Peg Woffington, deliciously played by Dervla Kirwan. What's On Stage

Photographer Garry Lake shared these gorgeous new photos of Joseph on Twitter last night, and the Independent posted a lovely review for one of Joseph's scenes in episode 3. 

There’s no doubt Banished is heavy on plot (tonight we had the holy trinity of fighting, pregnancy and a suicide attempt), and there are enough Things Going On to stop us changing channels, but it works best when the strong cast and heavyweight writer are allowed the breathing space to work their magic.

Banished begins tonight at 9pm on BBC 2. Some great previews have been shared online, including one for Joseph!

Jimmy McGovern creates and writes this historical drama, set in the penal colonies of New South Wales in 1788. Suffice to say that the setting, while both picturesque and threatening, is more a backdrop for a squaring off of the writer’s moral absolutes: cheeky lags, rotten redcoats, all playing their part in an immediately recognisable value system. Russell Tovey is the honourable Wheeler, and MyAnna Buring is the feisty Elizabeth Quinn. Casino Royale veteran Joseph Millson represents “bad man” with considerable glowering presence. Guardian
