Well, here's a turnup for the books - the Empress of Production is resigning. She finishes in February. Which means that her husband, the Consort Royale, is almost certainly also leaving. I most sincerely wish them both the best of luck in their new venture, whatever it turns out to be.
When did she resign? Yesterday. When did I find out? Last night. How did I find out? The Office Gossip was handed that particular piece of news by Mr Big, and as soon as he was out of Mr Big's reach he reacted as he normally does when handed a juicy piece of gossip - he passed it on to Little Miss QC, who dutifully told Magicke, who equally promptly passed it on to me.
The Grand Visier has told me in the past that she doesn't really want the role of Empress, but unless Mr Big and his Heir Apparent (aka his daughter) can find a suitable replacement (not a sure thing - trying to get experienced and qualified people to come to Canberra is incredibly difficult, for all sorts of reasons), then the Grand Visier may find herself as Acting Empress.
