Off topic and please delete if not allowed but is this the first year Qdos have done Goldilocks as a panto or have they done it before? Time for burlybear to audition for a part? |

Off topic and please delete if not allowed but is this the first year Qdos have done Goldilocks as a panto or have they done it before? it's certainly the first that I can recall, but I wonder if it's one of those titles like Mother Goose that was more common in years gone by. I see. I saw it was this years panto in Newcastle so I was just curious had it been done before. |

It was done a few times in the early 2000's starring Frank Bruno and then Lisa Riley with Clive Webb & Danny Adams. I think the last time Qdos produced it was probably 2007/8 in Edinburgh. |

Is there a fairy godmother type role in Snow White? Can see the lovely Jane McDonald as a possible target, especially after Elaine did so well in her pants debut. Would hope for an A-team panto with Paul O'Grady and Bradley Walsh involved - give Julian a year off and have him back for Jack & the Beanstalk in 2019/20.

Am also seeing Qdos doing a fair few Beauty and the Beasts, Sleeping Beautys and Robin Hoods if those are possible productions for the future...

PLEASE DON'T GET MY HOPES UP I saw Jane in Birmingham's Jack and the Beanstalk and she was utterly fabulous and brought the house down with her renditions of This Is The Moment and Ain't No Beanstalk High Enough. |

Mel B or Alesha Dixon as Wicked Queen?
Bradley Walsh as Muddles?
Ella Eyre would be a great Snow White.
I wonder if Julian, Nigel, Paul would be back. Surely they can’t get Paul again but wouldn’t surprise me if Julian or Nigel did. Julian could be the man in the mirror character.
David Williams would make a great Dame

The announcement is due to be made within the next two weeks.
We would presume this will also come with initial casting also... it has been said at least three of last years cast are set to return.
I really would love for Gary Wilmot to return.

If Julian and Paul return, as much as they are talented, it just will be their same routines in different costumes. I presume the 3rd party with be Nigel. It will get wonderful review for newbies but if you have seen them before you have seen it.

Gary Wilmot had a huge success with the Dame last year - it wouldn't surprise me if he returns.

(and I hope they keep the Underground song in) the Underground song was fantastic, and probably my favourite number in the show...but I'm not sure how relevant it would be to a Southampton (or anywhere else) audience? |

The show is set In London! We are cultured enough around here to be aware of those magic trains that live in the sewers up in the big smoke! |
