We had an excellent day out at the Star Walk event at the Trinity Walk shopping centre in Wakefield, West Yorkshire.

We revisited Wakefield on Saturday to attend the
Star Walk event at the
Trinity Walk shopping centre. The weekend saw a superb line-up of pop culture, retro and classic vehicles, as well as a whole host of photo opportunities with characters and props from film and TV.

Growing up in the 80's I'm a big fan of The A-Team and Knight Rider and it's always fun getting a snap with The A-Team's classic GMC Vandura van and K.I.T.T. from Knight Rider. Star Walk not only had two K.I.T.T.s from the
Yorkshire Knights, but it also saw two of K.I.T.T.'s evil twin K.A.R.R. on display!

There were loads of characters from various groups in costume for photo opportunities. And I had to have my photo taken with several of the Star Wars characters from the
UK Garrison!
