IT doesn't get cheddar than this on a bank holiday weekend - uphill cheese racing on the steep Hovis street.
Dozens of men, women and children lugged 55lb truckles up the cobbles of Gold Hill - made famous by Ridley Scott's 1973 bread commercial for the annual Cheese Run yesterday afternoon.
The weather wasn't anything to smile about but crowds still packed themselves in either side of the 236ft course to watch the races and relays.
