Ooh la la!
As York gears up for the final showdown of the Viking Festival, a famous face has brought a bit of glamour to the city.
Dressed in full French maid attire Vicki Michelle, star of television comedy ’Allo, ’Allo, opened the continental market.
Vicki helped promote the market outside René’s Bar, in Parliament Street, alongside stall-holders and market managers. Following her appearance, the actress visited the market stalls to sample the wide range of goods on offer.
Vicki, who played Yvette in the sitcom, said: “I think René’s Bar is a wonderful idea. That and the continental sights and sounds of the market bring back wonderful memories.
“I have been looking forward to meeting both the traders and the people who come to visit the market.”
