Last Christmas, the DVD of the 2018 Sunday for Sammy concert reached the number three slot in the music video Official Charts. Only Elvis Presley and Cliff Richard attained a higher slot on the prestigious Christmas charts.
Now, the Sunday for Sammy team are urging fans to help them reach the Christmas number one slot with the new 2020, 20th Anniversary Sunday for Sammy DVD from the sell-out shows at the Newcastle Utilita Arena in February.
Sunday for Sammy, unofficially known as the Geordie Command Performance is a celebration of North Eastern culture staged to raise funds to support the next generation of North Eastern performers with training, expenses and equipment.
The four-hour, music and comedy two DVD set contains appearances from cast regulars including Tim Healy, Billy Mitchell, Kevin Whately, Denise Welch, Jason Cook, Chris and Rosie Ramsey and the long-awaited return of Jimmy Nail to the show. Music highlights include songs by Trevor Horn, Joe McElderry, Chelsea and Jill Halfpenny and of course the customary and iconic “Run for Home” finale.
Show producer Ray Laidlaw is hoping that the 2020 DVD can beat last year’s high chart position.
“It’s been a tough year for everyone and what better way to add some Christmas cheer than sitting down and watching the Geordie Command Performance? It’s the ideal Christmas present and every DVD sold helps up and coming entertainers and artistes to get a helping hand in the industry. The more DVD’s we sell, the more people we can help.”
The DVD is available from JG Windows in Newcastle and Metrocentre or online at www.jgwindows.com
