Screen on The Green a stunning success in Littlehampton
About 40 people took part in the fancy dress competition on Saturday (August 9) at the town’s inaugural Screen on The Green event, on The Green.
Plenty of children dressed up in 1950s attire to pay homage to the stars of the hit film Grease.

The finalists were then asked a few questions before the audience had to shout for their favourite.
The winners were: four-year-old Bobby Haines of Littlehampton, who dressed as Danny, and Angel Barnett, ten of Mitcham, Surrey, who was dressed as a Pink Lady.
Both winners were delighted to have won and their families said how wonderful they thought the event was.
