CHILDREN’S television favourite Peppa Pig thrilled scores of youngsters when she popped into Merry Hill shopping centre to regail them with some story-telling sessions.

Known for her love of jumping into puddles, Peppa was joined by Daddy Pig to tell tales of their adventures with the rabbits, sheep and elephants.

Kelly Reed, senior marketing manager at Westfield Merry Hill said: “It was fabulous to have one of CBeebies favourite characters along to share some stories with our young customers.

“Peppa is hugely popular and her visit was made more exciting by the fact it was Daddy Pig’s first outing in the Midlands."
