Commander Khashoggi (Alexander Hanson)
Khashoggi is the leader of the Ga Ga Cops, and is the Killer Queen's general dogsbody. He arrests Pop, Galileo, Scaramouche, Britney and Meat in the musical, but is ultimately brainwashed himself when Galileo and Scaramouche manage to escape from the Heartbreak Hotel.

Galileo Figaro (Tony Vincent)
Galileo is arrested by Khashoggi for singing, and is taken to the hospital, where he meets Scaramouche. He tells her that he hears song lyrics in normal life and in his dreams. Later, they meet Britney and Meat, which ultimately leads them to meet Pop, who helps them to rediscover the lost musical instruments.

Scaramouche (Hannah Jane Fox)
Scaramouche is arrested for singing and meets Galileo in hospital. Together, they meet Britney and Meat, then Pop, who helps them to rediscover the lost musical instruments.

The Killer Queen (Sharon D. Clarke)
The Killer Queen is the head of the Globalsoft Corporation. With Khashoggi, she ensures that all music is banned, and anyone who breaks this ban is arrested and brainwashed. When Galileo discovers the lost instruments at Wembley Stadium, she is vaporised by the Power Of Rock.

Britney Spears (Nigel Clauzel)
Britney Spears is one of the Bohemians, a group of rebels who strive to rediscover the lost music and rebel against Globalsoft. With Meat, whilst looking for materials to make instruments from, he discovers Galileo. He realises that Galileo must be The Dreamer as he knows many lost lyrics, and takes him to the Heartbreak Hotel, which ultimately leads to Galileo rediscovering the lost instruments and ending the Globalsoft domination.

Meat Loaf (Kerry Ellis)
Meat Loaf is Britney's partner and a fellow member of the Bohemians. Although sceptical that Galileo may be The Dreamer, she travels with Britney to take him to the Heartbreak Hotel to meet the other Bohemians. Whilst there, she and Britney are captured by the Ga Ga Cops and later brainwashed, but are freed in the end by the Power Of Rock.
