Bradford-born comic Johnnie Casson, who once made Des O’Connor laugh so much on television it made his name, is taking part in a charity show. He will be joining forces with Cannon and Ball, Coronation Street’s Tupele Dorgu, Emmerdale’s Hayley Tamaddon and a full supporting cast, for an evening of top-class family variety entertainment in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support.

The show takes place at Halifax’s Victoria Theatre on Saturday, March 28, starting at 7.30pm. Tickets cost £10 and £8 for children. To book ring (01422) 351158 or online at victoriatheatre.co.uk
