The sun came out for Mary Berry during her visit to Hylands Park where she officially opened the National Flower Show.

Hundreds of people arrived up to an hour before the show was opened, in the hope of catching a glimpse of the Great British Bake Off star.

The popular television personality was happy to oblige and signed recipe books and posed for photos with the fans who turned out to greet her. 

The National Flower Show was held on Friday, Saturday and Sunday in Hylands Park and included dozens of stalls selling flowers, crafts and food as well as competitions. 

Mary Berry judged the Floral Cake competition, selecting a winner before making her way to a marquee in the grounds where she did a question and answer session in front of hundreds of fans.
