The most wonderful time of the year

Alan Hughes, TV presenter/panto star

Christmas means ‘panto’ in our house. This is my 17th year in a row playing Sammy Sausages in Snow White and the Adventures of Sammy Sausages at the Tivoli.

During the party season, when most people are having a whale of a time, we are up to high doh trying to get a show on. Once you see hundreds of kids laughing and singing along though, it’s very hard not to get into the spirit of Christmas.
