Daytime television's golden couple Richard and Judy are returning to north Essex again this summer to open a fete.
Nearly 1,000 people turned out last year to the annual event at New Copford Place, Colchester, where Judy Finnigan and Richard Madeley were guests of honour.
The Channel 4 chatshow hosts have now agreed to return for this year's fete, on July 2, at the residential home for the elderly, at Willow Park, Copford.
The celebrity couple support the summer fundraising fete because Judy's mother, Anne, is a resident there.
Louise Baxter, scheme manager, said: "We are delighted Richard and Judy are coming back to New Copford Place to open our fete.
"They were absolutely charming last year. They made a real effort with everyone, posing for pictures and giving autographs."
