Donny Osmond is set to return to Dorset 20 years on from when these pictures were snapped.

AS the town prepares to welcome back the singing superstar, the Echo looks back at pictures of the American singer and dancer performing at Bournemouth International Centre (BIC) in 2003

With a successful career in the music industry, Donny Osmond is no stranger to fame.

His journey began with four of his brothers when they formed The Osmonds and released several top-ten hits and gold albums.

Later in the 1970s, Donny embarked on a solo path which also resulted in multiple chart-topping songs.

Then, in 2003, he took the roof off the BIC as thousands of fans turned out to watch his sell-out show.

And in a couple of weeks, 20 years on from when these pictures were taken, he's coming back.

Donny has made a few appearances in Bournemouth since then and The BIC will be playing host to the entertainer again on December 6.
