This year's panto promises to be the fairest of them all and CBeebies co-stars Evie Pickerill and Gyasi Sheppy will take to the stage together as Snow White and the Prince.

Evie, who hails from Kingswinford, said: "I'm starting to really feel it now. I've known since January that I'd be going back home for Christmas. It's so surreal.

"Last few years I've played Cinderella, so it's really nice mixing things up with Snow White."

Gyasi said: "We're just weeks away from rehearsals. I'm so excited to be doing this with Evie. It all happened by accident.

"We've worked together at CBeebies for two and a half years now and have built a little friendship."

Evie added: "It's really special to be home for Christmas. Wolverhampton Grand was probably one of the first theatres I went to and where I fell in love with theatre.
