ABBA STAR PLAYS DOWN SEQUEL!

Abba musician Benny Andersson has said there has been "no discussion" about a follow-up to smash hit musical film Mamma Mia!
"There is no talk of a sequel," the Swede told BBC News.
But he added Universal Pictures "would like a sequel because they're just flabbergasted at the success - more than anyone, I think".
The film, which features Abba's hits, recently became the highest-grossing British film in UK cinema history.
It has taken more than £67 million at the box office and remains in the top 10 after 17 weeks of release.
But Andersson added of Catherine Johnson, the film's screenwriter: "If she comes up with something, if she's keen on it, then maybe she'll call us."

The film, which tells the story a young woman's quest to discover who her father is, co-stars Meryl Streep and Pierce Brosnan in singing roles.
The four members of Abba - Andersson, Bjorn Ulvaeus, Agnetha Faltskog and Anni-Frid Lyngstad - were reunited at the film's Stockholm premiere.
The group, who split in 1982, had not been seen together in public for three years.
They have categorically ruled out a return to the musical stage.
