Hatchling: Giant dragon puppet flies off Plymouth coast

A giant dragon puppet flew off the coast of Plymouth as part of a two-day outdoor theatre performance.

Part-puppet and part-kite, The Hatchling - which is taller than a double-decker bus - took flight over Plymouth Sound on Sunday night.

Crowds flocked to the city to see the dragon puppet exploring the city's streets over the weekend.

The event was previously postponed as a mark of respect following the Plymouth shooting on 12 August.
