Entertainer Bobby Crush will join Ray Quinn in the cast of the 2018 UK tour of Summer Holiday.

Known for his appearances in Opportunity Knocks, at the Royal Variety Performance and in The Rocky Horror Show, Crush most recently appeared in the TV show Benidorm. He will portray the character of Jerry for the first eight weeks of the UK tour.

Crush will join Quinn in the show, which is set on a red double-decker bus that travels across Europe, picking up a variety of quirky individuals en route.

Based on the iconic '60s film of the same name which starred Cliff Richard, the production will include famous hits such as "In the Country", "Travellin' Light" and, of course, "Summer Holiday".

Summer Holiday opens its UK tour at Liverpool Empire on 8 May and runs through until 3 November.
