Bradley Walsh, David Bedella, George Ure & Flawless cast in Milton Keynes' pantomime

First casting has been announced for Peter Pan at the Milton Keynes Theatre. The pantomime will see Bradley Walsh return to the theatre to star as Smee.

Bradley said: “I can’t wait to be back at Milton Keynes Theatre, my happiest memories of panto were during my time spent there and I have been dying to get back but my schedule over the last seven years hasn’t allowed me. However this year I’m back with a show that will be fun for everyone… especially Me! Bring it on!”
