Panto at Butlins has always been brilliant and this year Bognor's panto is Beauty and the Beast. With stunning costumes, amazing songs and a great story, the characters had us roaring in laughter, cheering in triumph or shouting "Bonjour Madam" along with the rest of the audience. From the hilarious plate scene when Louis and Dotty made a bit of a mess of things to the final dance scene to "i'm a believer" we loved every minute of it.

Elizabeth's favourite part was when they read out her Birthday although she will be called "Elizabeth Seaham" from now on after Dotty got her name all confused.

I loved seeing some of our favourite redcoats and other butlins stars in this show in particular Redcoat Josh who is one of the first redcoats we met two years ago and recognises us as soon as he sees us.

Hiya, we saw this panto last week when we were at Butlins. Can you remember the song they sung, while waiting for the wedding..

It went like this... Butlins, Butlins, Butlins, by the sea... or something like that?

Can you help?

Thanks

Kaye

Here you go Kaye :)

"Butlins, Butlins, Butlins, Butlins by the sea
Butlins, Butlins, Butlins, it is the place to be
So, when you need a happy holiday
And you have time free
Come to
Butlins, Butlins, Butlins, Butlins by the sea"

I will now be singing this for the next few weeks
