In his Evening Standard review of Magic Flute at English National Opera, Barry Millingon observed that:

‘Tamino, sung by Allan Clayton, who is vocally in excellent trim but needs to spend more time at the gym if he is to be stripped regularly to his boxers’.

The young British tenor (whose ironic twitter name is @fatboyclayton) replied succinctly:

‘Barry Millington can fuck off.’
