Old pals feature in a double act for Blackpool Grand’s panto when TV’s Tom Lister joins Steve Royle in Aladdin.
Tom is the magician Abanazar in this year’s tale of magic, mayhem and misunderstandings.
Steve said, "Tom is one of my best buddies and when we get together anything can happen so no two shows are the same!"
Tom has appeared in many musicals in the UK and abroad but most notably he played the lead role of Julian Marsh in 42nd Street at London's Theatre Royal Drury Lane.
Aladdin runs from December 1 to January 1.
