Brighouse residents will travel back in time this weekend and transform its centre and shops to a bygone era to mark its 1940s weekend.

Attractions running today and tomorrow, will include vintage military and civilian vehicle displays, a Cine News Reel show, performances from 1940s singers, and dance lessons with the Back Step Boogie Club.

Visitors will have the chance to enjoy re-enactment displays from the Land Army, RAF, Luftwaffe, Dambusters and French Resistance and sample WI cooking, and there will also be a vintage market and fairground rides.

Tonight there will be a 1940s-style variety show at the Civic Hall, a 1940s dance at the Ritz Ballroom, and a Summer Sounds concert with Brighouse and Rastrick Band at Central Methodist Church.

But for many the highlight will be a fly-past by a Spitfire from the RAF Battle of Britain Memorial Flight on Sunday.
