Merseyside Celebrity Watch - Who was in Liverpool over Easter?
Photographs by Dave Evens

 

THIS Easter, Liverpool had quite a few stars from TV and film in and around the City. Dave Evens snapped the Liverpool born Bollwood star, Amy Jackson, as she arrived at the bespoke jewellers Russel and Case. She was at the shop to support the Miss Liverpool competition. Also attending with her was Danny Lawrence, the wife of footballer Brad Jone, along with Danny Lawrence and Gemma Russell. Sadly the daughter of Harrods owner, Dcamilla Alfeyd, who was a judge in the Miss Liverpool contest couldn't get to the event due to transport issues.  Do not forget if you want to enter the Miss England competition, check out:- missengland.info for more information.
