OH BROTHER! That looks fun! Nicholas Bennett popped along to Tyldesley Little Theatre to watch brother Rufus in action - and was hooked.

And next week 31-year-old Nick takes centre stage himself.

He is making his debut in TLT's 'All In Good Time', the company's final show of the season.

The play - filmed in the 60s as 'The Family Way' - runs from Tuesday to Saturday. Ticket details on 01942-897149 or 01942-886908.

Brother Rufus, MD for both TLT and St Joseph's Players during the pantomime season, has hardly dropped out of the spotlight.

He has landed a key role in 'Little Women', to be staged by St Joseph's Players in October.
