THE thrills and spills of Jay Miller's Circus is back in town this week at Finkley Down Farm.

They raised the Big Top on Tuesday and will be enthralling the people of Andover until Tuesday. 19 October.

This year Jay Miller has visited the An Shang Province in the People's Republic of China to bring back the amazing Kanai Troupe with their traditional Chinese Lions Dance, the death defying bungey bouncing and perilous hoop diving. From the Ukraine come the juggling Sil'Yanov family. And the high wire features Bulgarian Romil Dragmirov.

And Hungarian clown Peppi will have the audience rolling in the aisles with his array of side-splitting antics.
