IT’S not often you would see Batman walking through Launceston town centre, let alone a group of them. But on Saturday, the Bournemouth Carnival Band, all dressed in Batman costumes, descended on the town to take part in this year’s carnival.

They had a walk through the Square before the procession started later that day.

The band is a popular addition to the carnival, with members dressed as Spiderman last year. See page seven for a full report, results and photographs.
