- Published

A flotilla of pleasure boats basked in the sunshine at Henley Festival, held on the Berkshire banks of the River Thames.

Spanish street theatre company Osadia created "hair art", teasing festival-goers locks into fantastical structures.

Festival-goers Matt, Ben, Emma and Candy Davies (L to R) were among Osadia's willing victims.

Art, dance and sculpture also featured at the event, including this car decorated with graffiti.

Former Bond girl Joanna Lumley told anecdotes and read from Ian Fleming's works.

Skydiver Gary Connery, who acted as the Queen's stunt double at the London 2012 Olympics opening ceremony, parachuted from the sky to open the gala.

A selection of Bond-themed music was played by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.

Drummers from the London 2012 opening ceremony performed as part of a dramatic firework finale.

The Thames was crowded with pleasure boats decorated with fairy lights and candles as night fell.
