Six coats remain on the rail, and sources close to the situation are already calling it a custody matter.
The BFI London Film Festival began with a passionate homecoming screening of Simon Stone's Elsinore, starring Andrew Scott, with Olivia Colman, Billie Piper and Johnny Flynn in the room. Deadline and Variety both filed the ovation. Neither filed the hangers.
A cloakroom aide, who declined to give a name, said the crowd stood through the credits and then through a polite request to sit. By the time anyone reached the counter, six coats had picked a side. The aide offered the only line worth keeping.
We can hand back a scarf. We cannot hand back a person who has decided the railing is Denmark.
