A lucky few were able to catch a glimpse of the world-famous Red Arrows as they soared over parts of Norfolk.

They performed a display over RAF Marham as part of the base's Families Day on Thursday, July 28.

Although the display was held in private, it could be seen from outside the base.

The Red Arrows entered Norfolk just before 4pm near King's Lynn after arriving from RAF Scampton, before flying to Marham for the display.

The Red Arrows then returned to RAF Scampton before performing a flypast over the Alexander Stadium in Birmingham at the opening ceremony of the Commonwealth Games.

The Red Arrows will next be in Norfolk on Wednesday, August 17, for the Cromer Carnival.
