Shoppers and visitors to Hucknall High Street were entertained by a duo of dancing grannies yesterday (Sunday 21 November).

Courtesy of the newly expanded Specsavers store, the shape-shifting duo amazed passers-by with a series of energetic routines to classic floor fillers.

Store retail director, Janet Archer said: "At one point, there was such a crowd gathering.

"Everyone seemed to love the grannies and it was great to do something to add to the brilliant atmosphere and buzz around the town for the Food & Drink Festival. It certainly put a smile on people's faces."

The Dancing Grannies were on hand to help Specsavers Hucknall celebrate the completion of their store expansion.

It features two new downstairs test rooms, new seating area and a dedicated space for collection and aftercare.

They have also invested in another brand-new Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) machine, which provides a detailed structural scan of the eye, and a hearing booth for audiology services.

Stephen Archer, optometrist director added: "Business has grown significantly in recent years, and we've listened to feedback from customers that we need a bigger store.

"We're delighted with the transformation, the enhanced in-store experience and proud to have been able to recruit five new members of staff, including two apprentices, to join our team."
