“I am thrilled to be making my debut in the iconic London Palladium panto, one of the highlights of the theatrical year," said McDonald. "Julian and I are already falling in love off-stage, and we can’t wait to bring this to Maid Marion and Robin Hood come Christmas!”

The show will kick off on Saturday 7th December and run throughout the Christmas period, and director Michael Harrison has teased a "spectacle on stage".
