It was 'game on' at Old Windsor Carnival over the weekend as the decorated floats parading through the village brought decades of home entertainment back to life.

'Games people play' was the theme.

Familiar board games from decades ago competed with on-screen games from a later era to catch villagers' attention as each float passed by on the way to the recreation ground.

The 1st Old Windsor Brownies won the cup for best float, having decorated theirs to bring back memories of the 1960s board game Mousetrap.

King's Court First School won the cup for most creative float bringing the Guess Who video game to life, while Old Windsor Scout Group's was chosen as best youth float for Minecraft.

The team from St Peter and St Andrews Church went for a more traditional game - dear old Cluedo and were rewarded with a cup for most amusing float.

The Royal Borough's Deputy Mayor Cllr Gary Muir helped judge the floats before they set off on their route to the recreation ground.

The carnival escaped the recent unsettled weather.

Susan Pickles from the organising committee said: "Rain stopped just in time for the Donkey Derby and fireworks on Friday evening. It was quite windy on Saturday and the stallholders had to be very stoical and make sure they were properly grounded."

Saturday events included performances and a falconry display by Michael Davie.

Sunday saw football and netball tournaments played on the recreation ground and an afternoon picnic while picnickers enjoyed the Old Windsor's Got Talent competition.

The winner of the competition on Sunday was Roxanna Heffer, 9, who played the violin. Runners up were Ayesha Scott, 12 playing the ukelele and singing and Violet Scully, nine, who did a gymnastic dance. There was a total of 14 entries.
