LINDLEY Church Amateur Operatic Society served up a Dickens of a good show with their production, Oliver, in December 1985.
The Charles-Dickens inspired musical was one of many happenings taking place around Huddersfield over Christmas 27 years ago and which are featured in this week’s festive collection of memories.

The well-loved theatre classic ran for a week at Lindley Church School, East Street.
