Mums, dads and children turned out in droves to meet one of their TV favourites Peppa Pig when she made a series of personal appearance at Freshney Place Shopping Centre. More than three thousand children had the chance to be photographed with their ‘heroine’ during the day, when Peppa made five half-hour appearances in the Centre’s Market Square. “We were delighted with the response,” said Centre Manager Mandy Loose. “As the area’s major shopping centre we can make it possible for young people to meet television favourites – and judging by the number of cameras and mobile phones in evidence, pictures will be going into family albums all over North-East Lincolnshire. “We like to do everything we can to make sure our centre is family-friendly, and the appearance of characters like Peppa Pig allows us to do something for the younger members of those families.” |
