Chitty Chitty Bang Bang has swooped into Norwich Theatre Royal on a UK tour and the musical has plenty of scrumptious moments. Star of stage and screen Adam Garcia plays the title role of Caractacus Potts with the perfect mix of charm and chaos. Ellie Nunn stars opposite him as Truly Scrumptious, who is hugely likeable and in the driving seat in their blossoming relationship.

He raises the money to buy it by selling one of his inventions, which are intricate, smoke-billowing masterpieces. While at the fairground, Garcia and the ensemble give a magnificent rendition of Me Ol' Bamboo, with the stage a kaleidoscope of colour.
