... Sings The Beatles : BBC2 - Friday 15th January : 11.05pm

Snow White at Bournemouth Pavilion is a treat - a real band, talented performers, gorgeous costumes and scenery, traditional music and fantastic rapport.

UK Productions, with director/performer Chris Jarvis at the helm and Su Pollard as the Wicked Queen, serves-up a fun-filled festive feast.

Pollard is dame and villain combined - as part of her wicked sense of humour, she kicks-up red suede heels, swirls multicoloured sequins and has glasses to compete with Dame Edna, whilst poking fun at us all.

Jarvis is adorable as Muddles the Jester - his clever impressions, reference to CBeebies and comic timing links every scene at a pace. Michael Chance’s Ramsbottom is a perfect straight man, from Spotty-Bottom to Smelly-Bottom, the butt of the Queen’s jokes. Both Rebecca Marks in the title role and Jonathan Parkin as Prince are excellent - Marks’ Snow White, with every Disney gesture and melodic note, give us exactly what we want - songs such as I’m Wishing and Someday My Prince Will Come command relative quiet, and there are whistles of delight when, against tradition, the Prince and Snow White kiss.
