A small memorial to Michael Jackson has appeared outside the Dome, where he was due to play 50 dates starting next month. To be honest, I wouldn’t be surprised if the O2’s bosses’ minds were really on the thumping great loss of income they’ve got to face up to this summer – and the fiddly business of refunding hundreds of thousands of ticketholders.

It looks a bit incongruous out on windy Peninsula Square – and will it grow, or will it be quietly removed? It’s an odd sight, but it is a reminder of a summer that now never will be.
