“I took part in a little mini production of this when I was a bout 8 at school and my mum bought the video for me. Iu0026#39;ve loved it ever since!! When I was younger, it was the songs and spectacular dance sequences that I enjoyed but since Iu0026#39;ve watched it when I got older, I appreciate more the fantastic acting and character portrayal. Oliver Reed and Ron Moody were brilliant. I canu0026#39;t imagine anyone else playing Bill Sykes or Fagin. Shani Wallisu0026#39; Nancy if the best character for me. She put up with so much for those boys, I think sheu0026#39;s such a strong character and her final scene when… Well, you know… Always makes me cry! Best musical in my opinion of all time. Itu0026#39;s lasted all this time, it will live on for many more years to come! 11/10!!”
