We pluck a poster from panto history and look at what we can find out about it for a real deep dive with many diversions into silliness. First episode HERE NOW https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovYesOJsi88 instagram.com/pantosplaining

‘The goal with this, perhaps, is for us to actually *be* in panto.’
‘Is it?’

Laughed a lot during this.

Wow, what a first episode. Who knew it would be so personal to me.

1. I lived in Ashton-U-Lyne from 1972 to 2010.
2. Me & Mrs Choons worked for Tameside Council for many years.
3. Mrs Choons was a member of Noreen Dickinson’s Juveniles and Cinderella was her final panto.
She was in these too.
