DR MAX PRESCRIBES... EMMA’S FEEL-GOOD FILM

WHO doesn’t need a pick-me-up right now? Matilda The Musical, starring Emma Thompson as Miss Trunchbull, is the perfect antidote to a dreary January. I absolutely loved the musical when I saw it in the West End a while back and the film is just as good. Yes, it’s a children’s story but the script and Tim Minchin’s songs mean adults get plenty from it, too.
