Robbie Williams is set to make his pantomime debut by starring in a production of 'Mother Goose' in his home town of Stoke-on-Trent.

According to reports, the popstar will not actually grace the stage in-person but will record a video clip to be used in the panto.

Television presenter Jonathan Wilkes, who is a friend of Williams, is also starring in the show. Wilkes said: "I was talking about the pantomime at dinner and he said he wanted to be in it, as did Ant and Dec."

According to the Daily Mirror, an insider said: "It is an extremely funny video clip which lasts a few minutes."

"Robbie's part is absolutely integral to the story and it's very, very funny. He might put on a daft dress, he could be a dame or even pop up as a fairy. Whatever he does it will be worth watching."
