Take That star Gary Barlow is to write a Yorkshire stage musical based on Calendar Girls.

The X Factor judge may be a Manchester lad, but he's chosen God's Own Country as inspiration for the venture, backed by Welcome To Yorkshire.

Welcome to Yorkshire chief executive Gary Verity said to have someone of Gary Barlow's calibre penning the show was 'amazing'.

The musical will be officially launched near the Calendar Girls' home in Burnsall in the Yorkshire Dales, when more details will be announced.

To help Gary with his musical mission, we decided to give some of his greatest hits a Yorkshire makeover.
