Sources tell me that a deal is strongly favored between Red and the BBC.
Wankel, rightly, wasnt giving much away.
However, he left in a merry mood.

My thought about New York though is thatStanding at the Skys Edgemight be a better prospect for Lincoln Center.
Perfect home for a masterpiece.
Gotta say something about the cast!
The ‘Standing at the Sky’s Edge’ cast and band onstageBaz Bamigboye/Deadline
Adam Price, who plays multiple roles, was also a member of the original company.
Both bring delicate notes, and depth, to what could be called the Romeo and Juliet roles.
Both excel in roles that I wont give away here.
Dont want to get in trouble for spoilers!
Theres not a duff note in this company.
Every single performance is one of quality.
Stuart Burt cast the adults and Chloe Blake handled childrens casting.
My note to Bobby was, I want the seats to rumble, just.
Theres just more dynamic range, notes Rupert Lord.
Yeah, thats true.Standing at the Skys Edgehas an epic dynamic in the Gillian Lynne.
Thats true, too.
Standing at the Skys Edgefeels very much at home at the Gillian Lynne.
If my strong hunch aboutStanding at the Skys Edgecounts for anything, Sir Bob will have a long wait.
And I welcome such a salutation.
WHAT ELSE DID THE SHUBERT ORGANIZATION BOSS SEE ON THE WEST END?
Their nuptials are attended by her family.
You know weddings, right?
The shiny veneer goes right off em both during and after the reception.
Bodhi Rae Breathnach, Maggie Livermore and Cadence Williams share the role of Sarah, Sylvias schoolgirl niece.
Its an unmissable performance.
Wankel saw this National Theatre and Neal Street Production on a previous visit, he tells me.
He might have had a merrier view of them than this columnist.
