Know anyone who looks like Matt Hancock? His nemesis Isabel Oakeshott is looking for an actor to play the former health secretary in a live show. Oakeshott, right, who co-wrote Hancock’s pandemic “diaries” last year then betrayed him by giving his WhatsApps to a newspaper, is putting on a show based on the messages.
There have been setbacks. First she says they had to move venue from the Emmanuel Centre after Hancock’s people complained about the show. Now actor Laurence Fox has said he won’t play Hancock, over a feud with co-organiser Toby Young, so the pair are seeking a new star, and someone to play Boris Johnson.
