Super-sized TV!
Swindon's Big Screen officially launched at Wharf Green
There might not have been any popcorn in sight, but the official switch on of Swindon's Big Screen was certainly a super-sized event.
Local residents and business people turned out to celebrate the launch, which was fronted by BBC Points West's Alex Lovell.

An evening which included a performance from Swindon Dance, clowns, face-painting, and a virtual penalty shoot-out competition with Swindon Town's Ady Williams, Blair Sturrock and Jamie Vincent.
The first of its kind in the south-west, the BBC Big Screen will bring local and national news and events to the town centre - with the opportunity for local filmmakers to have their own work broadcast.
