On Saturday the Tigers Freefall Team, once they had landed, were presented to special guest comic actor Bernard Cribbins who has appeared in numerous major franchises, including Carry On... films and Dr Who. He served with the paratroopers during his National Service.
The impressive Vulcan bomber proved as popular as ever while the many fans of the Red Arrows had just one performance this year, on Sunday.
After last year’s success with the ‘Little Red Arrows’ model aircraft, they returned and were joined by other mini versions of airplanes.
