Stand aside Patrick ‘Jon-Luc’ Stewart and Sir Ian ‘Gandalf’ McKellen and bow to the new king of theatre, Chiwetel Ejiofor, who last night won the Laurence Olivier award for best actor.

Chiwetel has been excellent in everything I have seen him in and especially in Children of Men – my favourite film of 2007.

Truth be told, my admiration is also helped by the fact that Chiwetel is, ahem, a bit of alright.
