Victoria Wood fans to choose character for her statue

Fans of Victoria Wood are being offered the chance to choose the character for the planned statue of the late comedian.

A life-sized memorial will be erected in her home town of Bury.

The council has said that Wood's fans can pick between two of her best-loved characters for the statue - Brenda 'Bren' Furlong from Dinnerladies or Kimberley's Friend.

Each vote will cost £2 and Bury Council says the money will help pay for casting, transport and fixing the memorial.
