John Cleese, in a ‘ministry of silly walks’ pose, is among the exhibits in a ‘best of British’ sand sculpture festival in the Somerset seaside resort.

Others include James Bond, The Beatles, Lord Nelson, Shakespeare and TV’s Little Britain duo David Walliams and Matt Lucas.

Prince Charles, Margaret Thatcher, Noddy and Concorde are also there.

The figures took 13 people 15 days to build, using more than 500 tonnes of sand sprayed with glue.

Former world sand sculpture champion Nicola Wood, from Leicester, who made a Dylan Thomas exhibit, said: ‘I’m really pleased by how it all turned out.’

Looks more like the Giant Boy Detective form the Venture Bros. to me.

Chief of Staff, 007's gone round the bend. Says someone's been trying to feed him a poisoned banana. Fellow's lost his nerve. Been in the hospital too long. Better call him home.
