Theatreland’s great and good served up the Ivy’s shepherd’s pie alongside teetering Knickerbocker Glories, while good sports Sir Derek Jacobi and Samantha Bond volunteered a dinner with them as part of an auction lot. And the award for the best theatre/food pun went to the diner (we’re not saying who) who asked for his meat As You Like It.

How we laughed.
