John Bishop, Sir Ian McKellen and Kate Bush walk into a bar...

Pub staff were astonished when Sir Ian McKellen popped into a pub for a drink with John Bishop - and they were joined by Kate Bush.

The comedian and Sir Ian are starring in theatre show Mother Goose and celebrated the 100th show with a visit to The Jolly Farmers pub in Oxford.

John Bishop got behind the bar to pull a pint - and later Kate Bush popped in to see Sir Ian and "have a few drinks", according to staff.

A staff member said Sir Ian was "astonishingly wonderful" during Wednesday's visit and added: "This little pub is truly something special."

Mother Goose is a panto written by Coronation Street writer, currently showing at New Theatre in Oxford.
