Rhys wins lead role
TWINKLE-toed 10-year-old Rhys Yeomans could be set for stardom in London's West End.
Rhys, from Chadderton near Oldham, has won through three regional auditions for the lead role in a new stage production of Billy Elliot.
The Hulme Grammar School pupil - who only started formal dance training 18 months ago - now plans to dazzle the producers in a final audition in London.
Title of the article seems a bit presumptuous.... but I guess he made it if he's wearing a Billy shirt and doing promo stuff.

Crucial day for bid to win city of culture title
BTW, I laughed when I saw the pair of feet from the kid who obviously missed the cue to jump...
