Crowds have been rolling up to the big top as a circus tours the county.

Jay Miller’s Circus arrived in Kidlington for the first time in its history for a three-night stay from Monday and is now in Wantage.

The show, which only has human performers, opened at the Challow Road showfield last night and there are two performances today and tomorrow.

Ringmaster Ross Farrer said: “The shows have been great so far, with a good response from the crowds.

“It’s our 25th anniversary tour this year, with acts from all over the world. We’ve got aerial acts, ground acts and comedy from Peppi the Clown – it’s great fun for all the family.”
