Snow White & The Seven Dwarfs Pantomime – Bournemouth Pavilion
So – we went to the panto (oh yes we did!). Snow White awaited us at the Bournemouth Pavilion, with Chris Jarvis (from Cbeebies) as the irrepressible Muddles, and Su Pollard as the Wicked Queen. We hadn’t told the children where we were going so late on a school night (*gasp* Bad Parents), and as we walked up the steps they read the posters in excitement.

Bob & Blossom have...
