‘Don’t worry, no one was singing along’: Alison Hammond attends Back to the Future Musical in London

Alison Hammond has been pictured with the cast of the Back to the Future Musical, performed at the Adelphi Theatre in London. The TV star shared the picture with her 1.3 million Instagram followers.

The official Back to the Future (BTTF) Musical Twitter account also shared the picture. The caption reads: “Great Scott! 🤯 ‘This Morning’ became ‘Yesterday’ when television legend @AlisonHammond came back in time with us!

“Don’t worry, no one was singing along... 🤪 The power of love is strong with this one!!! ⚡”

This is a reference to recent backlash Alison faced for ‘making light’ of a riot that broke out during a production of The Bodyguard in Manchester.

At the show, ticket holders refused to stop singing along during ‘I Will Always Love You’, the closing number of the show. Police were then called to the scene which resulted in the performance ending 10 minutes earlier than scheduled.

Alison, 48, reacted to the news that future audience members at the show were being asked not to sing along. In an episode of This Morning, the brummie presenter said: “I can’t believe it. I’d be devastated, I’m not even going to go to that show now.”

She later issued an apology statement regarding the matter on social media.

Since her apology, Alison has announced she will star in Birmingham Hippodrome’s 2023 Christmas pantomime, Jack and the Beanstalk. She will star in the show alongside names such as Doreen Tipton and Matt Slack.

She said on an episode of Late Night Lycett: “Being able to be part of the legendary Birmingham Hippodrome pantomime is a dream come true!”
