Of course Liam is brilliant, but I think Tim Healy shows a good acting in this video. I don't think he's been in the show, but he is a real, authentic Geordie. Wish I would see him on stage because he's got a wonderful voice!

@Gizuy80 Tim Healy was in the show but only, I think, for the first 6 or 12 months and was nominated for Best Supporting Actor in a Musical [ in 2006 ].

@david200110 Oh, was he? I didn't know that. I saw the show with the original cast (maybe in 2006) and the dad was Philip Whitchurch. I'd like to listen to his singing " Deep into the ground", anyway!

[david200110]

@Gizuy80 The 2005 CD with the original cast lists Tim Healy.

As for Whitchurch, Philip played Billy's dad in Elton John's West End stage adaptation of Billy Elliot from 5 December 2005 until 2 December 2006. He returned to the role from 2 June 2008 until 29 November 2008. He also played Billy's dad in Elton John's Broadway stage adaptation of Billy Elliot from 29 January 2010 until 2 May 2010.

This stage seems familiar. I think I saw Joseph McManners perform there too. Can you remind me what program this was from?

[david200110]

@stijnhommes The programme was called The Sound of Musicals - broadcast BBC 2006. McManners performed Walking in the air

@HeseTkuj Your life won't be complete until you have seen Billy Elliot on stage. Fantastic show.

All the Billy's are great. They have to be to be able to perform on stage for so long in such a demanding part for anybody, let alone a young person, but nobody is as good as Liam!

[mukas999]

they're all great but I think Liam is the best of the Billys

[jakeve2]

so much love for this, been watching it like 10 times a day for a week!

[TRoderick]

this is like.. totally the music and the mirror... but for a little boy

[jramz91]

@Qedia i second that :')

[thisfunnygirliknow]

i freaking love this kid.

[MegJ326]

that boy is so cute!

Liam has always been fantasitc at fuete turns. Even in some videos of him with the two other billy's when he first started the show, they just had him turn for the entire last part of the performance, because he could. I'm a dancer and a singer and I know how incredibly hard all of this is to do, especially for young boys. It's absolutely mind-blowing... seriously. My mind is blown.

@TheMeaninglessMovies Not many kids are, friend.

WOW. This is amazing. I wanted to see this on stage with my mom but my brother's didn't want to go so we didn't. I wish we had.
