The Parts Are Cast

Last night the cast gathered in front of Panto Director, Chris, to be allotted their parts, but not everyone was pleased with the news.

Chris started by telling Marco that he was the Fairy Godmother and Victor that he was Buttons the cat.

He then told Mel that she was to play Prince Charming with "lots of leg and lots of striding about".

And it was this that Kitten was not happy about.

"******, ********r," she said standing up and striding about, insisting that she wanted to play Prince Charming and that that was the part she'd auditioned for.

"You're Dandini," Chris told her.

"I don't WANT that part, he's DIPPY," snapped Kitten.

"It's a good part, like Baldrick," insisted Chris, before getting on with the job at hand.

"Spencer [you're] Jordanne and Tim [you're] Jodey," the Panto Director told the lads, causing them to shake hands and grin at their appointment as the ugly sisters.

Narinder and Nick were also chuffed with their roles: the evil stepmother Baroness Hardup and dodgy dad Baron Hardup.

Chris then went on to the lead role of Cinderella.

"We have two terrific auditions for Cinderella and I can't decide," he told Anouska and Jade, "I want to rehearse with both of you to see. Either one could play the part."

Hearing this, Kitten had a few more words to say regarding her failure to bag the role of Prince Charming and it instead going to Mel.

"Why can't you do that with other people?" she wanted to know.

But, Chris wasn't to be drawn in to an argument and more or less ignored the question.

"I know why you haven't given me the part, it's because you think I'm not pretty enough," Kitten ranted.

"It's not to do with anything of the kind, I'm looking at personalities who can play that part," Chris responded calmly.

"Yeah, cos I'm a really dippy person," grumped Kitten, looking suitably annoyed.

As Jade and some of the others started to back Chris up and reason with Kitten, it just fired her up even more.

"****** off... can you just give me a break" she yelled, and with that she left the room.

Good to see some things never change.
