Harry Redknapp to make panto debut?

Harry Redknapp looks set to make his panto debut alongside fellow ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here’ star Rita Simons.
The 71-year-old former football manager may be supporting the 41-year-old actress – who is currently playing Carbosse in ‘Sleeping Beauty’ at the Bournemouth Pavilion – after she hinted the ex-Spurs boss might make a cameo in her festive show.
The former ‘EastEnders’ star is quoted by the Daily Mirror newspaper as saying: "I spoke to Harry and he’s going to be coming to the theatre every morning to bring me coffee and he may also be doing a little cameo in the show.
"My producer is very happy for him to do it if he wants to. Harry wants to do it."
The King of the Jungle said: "I am ready for the walk-on part.
"I don’t know what it’s going to be but it’s Christmas and you have got to give people a laugh."
After the soap star was voted out of the jungle, the former West Ham United manager promised he would bring her food and drink while she was performing in the pantomime in Bournemouth, near where he lives in Sandbanks.
He said: "I love Rita but I’ll be seeing plenty of her when I get out because she’s down in Bournemouth doing her pantomime, so I shall pop up in the morning and take her a cup of coffee and a couple of jam donuts."
