By Community Correspondent Hannah Woolridge Who would have thought that when Michael Jackson announced his 'This is it' concerts we would be able to see them here, in Epsom!

Since his tragic death at the young age of 50 in June, some of the concert rehearsal footage has been made into a film. 'This is it' is a fitting tribute to the 'King of Pop'. The planned concerts at the O2 Arena were going to be truly spectacular and, even at 50, Michael Jackson's singing and dancing remains unsurpassed.

The film is showing around the world for a limited two week run and fortunately for local MJ fans it is now playing at the Epsom Odeon. It started on 28th October and, although originally scheduled for a fortnight, due to it's popularity, the run may be extended. A local resident told me: 'I had tickets for 'This is it' at the O2 Arena and although it's sad that I never saw him perform live, it's been fantastic to see this film. The concerts would have been amazing!'
