I have no idea where my nearest panto is.

Not any with 'famous' people in them anyway.

by Nightjar Fri Nov 04, 2022 8:17 pm

Cos it's this here London the nearest one will probably have Daniel Craig as Widow Twanky.

by Nightjar Fri Nov 04, 2022 8:19 pm

And Chloë Grace Moretz as Dick Whittington.

by Nightjar Fri Nov 04, 2022 8:20 pm

And Meryl Streep as Puss in Boots.

by Nightjar Fri Nov 04, 2022 8:23 pm

And James Stewart and Cary Grant as the Ugly Sisters.

by Nightjar Fri Nov 04, 2022 8:26 pm

And Sirs Lawrence Olivier and John Gielgud as Ashleigh and Pudsey.

by Nightjar Fri Nov 04, 2022 8:28 pm

I could go on.

There's literally no end to the hilarious combinations of unlikely A-list celebrities and pantomime characters I could come up with.

Should I?

Personally, I'd love to.

I think pantomimes only exist for the plebs outside the M25.
