A CAROL service with a difference will take place at the New Life Baptist Church, in Northallerton, on Sunday.

In place of the traditional carol service, there will be a dance and music show called Hosanna Rock. It is based on the Christmas story and will be performed by children from New Life and the Kidzone team.

Producer Graham Pentelow said: "They have worked incredibly hard and have put together a magnificent show in the space of just a few weeks - their enthusiasm is infectious and I am sure it will bring a new dimension to the traditional story of Christmas."

The show starts at 6.30pm on Sunday. Admission is free.
