Musicals Stamps

Today Royal Mail issued a new set of stamps to celebrate 70 years of musical theatre in London's West End (title link). The shows chosen are Oliver, Blood Brothers, We Will Rock You, Monty Python's Spamalot, Me and My Girl, Return to the Forbidden Planet and Billy Elliot. What makes this set especially interesting is that Royal Mail has posted a YouTube video showing excerpts from the musicals and interviews with some of their stars, as well as providing information about the stamps (CLICK). Did you know that it takes two years to develop a new set of stamps?
