: I agree - I think Paul O Grady was a one-off
: for the Palladium. So very glad I got to see
: it. I hope the Palladium doesn't bring in a
: 'Hollywood' name, but gets a good British
: one like last year!

: Paul O'grady has been offered Liverpool and
: turned it down - its unlikely he will be
: doing panto this year.

: Christian and Jonny Wilkinson will be

: I'd love to see (and could see it happening)
: Michael Ball as Dame in the palladium

: The whole debate of 2017/18 is a difficult
: one, with only Edinburgh (allan, andy and
: grant) and Newcastle ( Danny, Clive and
: Chris)only fully being in place although we
: now know that Craig Revel Horwood will lead
: the cast in Southampton.
:
: I would wager good money that Barrowman and
: The Krankies will return to Glasgow but not
: the SECC but the Kings,its a shrewd move if
: they do.
:
: I agree with other folks, if Biggins is
: going to give his final ever Dame season
: what better way to bow out than as Sarah the
: Cook in the Palladium production.
:
: would also be tremendous if Barbara Windsor
: returned to the palladium.
:
: As for Paul O'grady, he was a true highlight
: of last season at the palladium, however I
: cant see him doing a lengthy run, so a panto
: with a 3 to 4 week run probably suits him
: best.
:
: So who knows! there are a lot of pantos to
: cast

: That casting would be pretty good actually,
: Barbara Windsor would really suit panto at
: the Palladium! Doubt it'll happen though -
: maybe an ex-FFE star will top the cast, Dame
: Edna perhaps?

:
: Barrowman, Biggins, Krankies, barbara
: Windsor as Bowbells.

: I wonder if Jonny Wilkes and Christian
: Patterson will still star at stoke.

: Would Biggins really be a big enough name
: for
: the Palladium compared to Amanda Holden,
: Paul O Grady etc? Cx
:
: --Previous Message--
: I recon Biggins will be Dame at the
: Palladium.
: He had a year off and said that 2017 panto
: will be his last, so would make sense.
:
: --Previous Message--
: I agree about Barrowman - he's probably more
: likely to draw in the crowds than Bradley
: Walsh. Although I think the Palladium will
: try and do a lot more than that to top
: Cinderella's billing - I wonder if Joan
: Collins would attempt a return to panto?
: Queen Rat again?
:
: I have a feeling David Hasselhoff will be in
: Plymouth this year. Cx
:
: --Previous Message--
: I'd say Barrowman is a bigger name than
: Bradley Walsh for the Palladium. Id suspect
: he will be in London or Scotland
:
: I wonder if Danny Mac will join panto this
: year, especially as the musical he was meant
: to be touring in has been cancelled. Maybe
: his fiance will join him as she is known
: from Hollyoaks and was cast opposite him in
: the cancelled musical.
:
: I'm not sure Paul O Grade would do panto
: again, he keeps saying it's too much for
: him. But if he did Liverpool would be the
: one.

: Manchester I think will have john barrowman
: the krankies and tam Ryan
:
: Paul o Grady for Liverpool

: I think they might be better placed in one
: of
: the newly acquired venues. The Palladium
: needs a regular TV personality for its top
: billing like Bradley Walsh.
: --Previous Message--
: Any predictions? Let's see who gets it right
: as the announcements come in
: I personally think Barrowman & Krankies
: for Palladium!
