Sheridan Smith may be best known to TV audiences in the role of Janet Keogh in the BBC sitcom Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps, but it's her most recent outing - as stage star of the musical Legally Blonde - that is causing a stir in the West End. So much in fact that producers of the show have hired six extra security guards, built and extra stage door and put up rope barriers, reports the Times Online.

Whatsonstage.com is reporting that Legally Blonde is poised to be this season's monster hit in the West End, 'reporting £2million advance ticket sales and a 'Beatlemania'-like atmosphere' at the Savoy Theatre, where the production is currently in previews.
