I imagine Shane Ritchie would be IMMENSE in Panto, plenty of personality and charisma, a real peoples favourite.

Well, better than Todd Carty as Captain Hook at The Capitol in Horsham a couple of years back anyway, he was truly awful.

I believe tradition used to dictate that every pantomime had to feature Christopher Biggins & two actors from Neighbours.

Now it's probably someone who was kicked out of Hollyoaks for drug use, & a bloke from CBeebies.

I think it was John Barrowman and Dale Winton last year in Brighton, they've got Russell Grant this year but that's all I know.

Wolverhampton's Grand Theatre has comedy legend Joe Pasquale starring as 'Muddles' in a production of Sleeping Beauty.

Quite a coup, I'm sure you'll agree.

The best Panto I have seen was at the University of Sussex (I think) when John Cleese played Captain Hook.
