JACKO fans get a rare chance to see their late, lamented hero in action in MICHAEL JACKSON'S THIS IS IT (PG), showing him as he developed, created and rehearsed for his sold-out concerts which would have taken place at the O2 Arena.

Chronicling the months from April through June this year - shortly before he died - the film draws from more than 100 hours of footage as he worked on his final show.

The film opens in cinemas in the early hours of tomorrow and will be on release for two weeks only.
