CASINO tables and a cocktail bar added to the glamour of a James Bond-themed prom.

Students at Colchester Sixth Form College were both shaken and stirred for the annual event at Charter Hall on Friday.

Some 500 students donned dinner jackets and their best frocks to dance to a live band, take a spin on a roulette wheel and sip a non-alcoholic cocktail.

Organiser Will Pierce said it was both "very successful and very glamourous".

"We'd made a lot of effort with the theme and it was a fantastic evening for the students that attended," he said.
