STAR Wars fans dressed up for the midnight showing of the new film The Last Jedi.

To mark the film's release, Worcester Odeon ran a double bill showing The Force Awakens before fans had their first chance to see the latest instalment.

Jerome Tilley dressed as Obi Wan Kenobi for the event while another fan showed off a BB8 handbag.

James Martin was at the screening after winning two tickets to see the double bill in a Worcester News competition.

Worcester Odeon manager James Taundry also watched the film alongside fans but said he wouldn't give any spoilers away.

However, he added: "Personally I think The Last Jedi has the potential to be polarising for fans as the film eschews some of the more traditional elements of the series and introduces some aspects that will likely surprise, however it's still a fun romp through a galaxy far, far away with the characters we've all grown to love.

"As a side note I feel this film may contain my favourite Luke Skywalker scene of all time, and that's definitely saying something considering his role in previous entries in the series."
