Rock and roll star Liam Gallagher teamed up with Centrepoint, Shelter, ICHH and Aberdeen Cyrenians charities to encourage fans to donate a parka coat for his ‘Part With Your Parka’ charity campaign throughout his soldout November 2019 UK and Ireland headline tour.

“Go easy on me,” were Liam’s first words to London’s O 2 Arena, with a sea of 20,000

faces cheering in response. He opened with Rock ‘n’ Roll Star before performing Halo and Shockwave from new album Why Me? Why Not?

Liam played crowd-pleasing Oasis classics Colombia, Stand By Me and Morning Glory. The Oasis star told the crowd “You’re going to have to help me out,” as he ended an unforgettable night with Wonderwall.

FROZEN 2 REVIEW BY CHLOE RANDALL

When people think of Frozen, they think of talking snowmen, magical powers and mainly a film for young children who dream of being Ana and Elsa. However, Frozen 2 is so much more than that. The complex yet magical plot makes it enjoyable for people of all ages and Idina Menzel is just as stunning on

the soundtrack as ever, with the song Into the Unknown a particular highlight.

The aesthetic of the film is breathtaking and exceeds all expectations associated with a sequel. Frozen Fever will definitely continue around the world with this film having something for everyone.

The Rise of Skywalker is a non-stop rollercoaster ride that, with all its thrills, would have benefitted from more down-time to deliver a wholly enjoyable experience. The saga reaches its long-awaited climax in Episode IX but the emotional payoff never truly felt earned as the film suffered from its lack of build-up due to the decision

to not stand by its predecessor. Although it ret-cons much of what The Last Jedi tried to achieve (I’m looking at you, Rose) some of the most enjoyable parts of Rise of Skywalker are its fan-service sprinkled throughout.

If you can ignore its flaws, this is a harmless, fun-filled galactic joyride.

CATS REVIEW BY CHLOE RANDALL

CATS is a film for fans of the musical, people with a wild imagination and anyone who is up for seeing something a bit different. After 21 years in the West End, fans of the musical were extremely excited when a movie was announced.

Featuring some of the biggest stars in Hollywood such as Jennifer Hudson, James Corden

and Rebel Wilson, the film was packed with star-studded actors and it was very obvious from the production value that they really had thrown everything into it.

The choreography, production and the nods to the stage show really were incredible, but not so much if you aren’t familiar with the original.
