The giant fish and jellyfish wove through the streets at the seaside resort

Enormous illuminated sea creatures have paraded through a seaside resort.

Peixos, which means fish in Catalan, saw 9ft-high (3m) fish and jellyfish sculptures, powered by bicycles, glide through Weymouth.

The underwater spectacle was arranged by the resort's council and Barcelona-based theatre company, Sarruga.

The one-hour parade will run again on Saturday and start at 19:30 BST at the Westham Road/Commercial Road junction.

The parade wove its way to the Esplanade and finished at Pavilion Forecourt car park.
