Titan the Robot returned to the Eastgate to entertain hundreds of fans.

The cheeky 8ft tall robot, along with his sidekick Dave, once again put on a unique display of family entertainment at the shopping centre in the first of two half-term events.

The robot sang, danced and squirted audience members with water during the shows. He even flirted with one or two of the ladies, giving them a red rose.

Titan is a TV regular and has worked alongside Rihanna, Will Smith and Jackie Chan.

Eastgate’s Centre manager Ian Clark said: “It was brilliant to have Titan back in Basildon. The show was even bigger and better with hundreds of youngsters and adults turning up during the day to see the metal superstar do his thing.”

Today, there will be lots of spooktacular entertainment at Eastgate’s Halloween event.

There will be comedy shows from Zombie Disco, floaty ghosts, twisted balloons from the Inflate-a-belles, wicked witches on stilts, and a creepy craft workshop to make bats, cats, zombies and lots more.
