Peppa made her way to the Victorian Arcade Shopping Centre to celebrate Easter weekend as she met children and posed for photos with them.

The shopping arcade also hosted an animal farm, giving children the opportunity to meet pygmy goats, lambs, piglets and rabbits.

Animal experts answered the youngsters' questions about their new farmyard friends.

Darren Griffiths, from GBR Phoenix Beard, owners of the shopping centre, said: "Our Easter event was a great success and it was wonderful to see the centre so busy with local families enjoying the free entertainment."
