FILM
Mamma Mia!
Here We Go
Again
Nationwide
My, my, how can we
resist you! Clearly
we can’t, as it’s
round two of this
escapist fun. The
gang, including
Meryl Streep, Julie
Walters and Pierce
Brosnan, are joined
for another jolly
romp of nonsense
by Andy Garcia and
Cher, who bring
a further level of
theatricality to the
performance of
Fernando. Well, it is
the silly season.
From 20 July
