Naughty Newport lads Goldie Lookin Chain are already planning to take the Wrexham stage by storm, in more ways than one, and are looking forward to taking part in their first ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Children in Need event.

"We are really excited to be taking part in a worthwhile event such as Children In Need," the boys said.
Ìý
"Not only can we raise awareness for a brilliant cause, but we get the chance to out-drink the whole of Madness, and if we're really lucky, we can spy on the Sugababes in their dressing room - all of this, and in Wrexham as well. We cannot wait."
Ìý
All tickets for the event have now gone, with ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Wales getting a record number of calls for the free tickets.

David Cartwright, Head of Press, ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Wales, said: "We realise that some people have been disappointed not to get tickets, and we apologise to those who tried but couldn't get through. This was due to the sheer number of calls received.
Ìý
"But no-one has to lose out on the excitement of the concert, as it will be broadcast live on ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ ONE Wales and ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio Wales."

The concert is presented in conjunction with Wrexham County Borough Council. Airbus UK remains on board this year as the main sponsor of the event.
