Harrow children meet TV star Peppa Pig



By Yixiang Zeng

Children in Harrow came face-to-face with TV stars Peppa Pig and George on Saturday afternoon.

The event at St Ann’s Shopping Centre attracted hundreds of youngsters who got the chance to have their photos taken with the pair.

11-year-old Jasmine was one of the fans who queued up. She said: “I like the characters, they make me laugh, they’re not serious about what they do and they just play.”

Mum Nina Salami had also brought her child along to meet Peppa and George, who have become a smash since their show first appeared on Channel Five.

Nina said: “They like Peppa Pig because it is a very successful show, very entertaining, educational and funny.”

The characters were brought to St Ann’s as part of a series of half-term activities at the shopping centre.

St Ann’s Manager Suzy Wood said: "We’re thrilled to have Peppa Pig and her brother George come to St Ann’s.

“They are much loved TV personalities and it’s great that families are able to meet them here.”
