       She gave the same treatment to Handforth Parish Council’s chairman Brian Tolver last December, while other members told her she “had no authority” in a clip which became an internet hit.

       Jackie, 63, said of her cameo, alongside Bobby Davro in Sleeping Beauty at the Crewe Lyceum, Cheshire: “It’s just a bit of fun.”

       Theatre director Adam Knight said: “Jackie Weaver helped lift our lockdown spirits, so we were thrilled when she agreed to join.”
