Oasis v Blur rivalry revived in new play as cast take sides

The 1995 chart battle is recreated for a new play - and the rivalry is rekindled as the cast take sides.

The babies from Sheffield appear in a parody video of Blur's Parklife in support of a city hospital.

The Duchess of York in Leeds was once the place to play for bands on the verge of stardom.

Blur are riding on the crest of the 1995 Britpop wave when they decide to head off on a seaside tour.

The festival, in Kingham, is held annually on the farm owned by the Blur bassist Alex James.

Travis, The Wombats and Sophie Ellis-Bextor will also play at the 14th Big Feastival.

Dave Rowntree said he would be 'first in the queue' as he had never seen Oasis live before.
