A HAMPSHIRE shopping centre will go pancake crazy this weekend - ahead of Shrove Tuesday.

The Brooks Shopping Centre in Winchester will be mixing comedy, eggs, flour and milk to create a flippin’ fantastic pancake tossing competition.

On February 25 the centre will transform into a pancake loving kitchen as the residents of Winchester are invited to join the pancake tossing fun and meet two lively comedy chefs.

To celebrate Pancake Day, the comedy duo will have shoppers in fits of laughter as they encourage people to pick up a frying pan and try out their pancake tossing skills. The participant that flips a ready-made pancake the highest by the end of the event will be crowned winner, receiving a scrumptious pancake hamper, filled with luxury ingredients.

Pancake tossing will take place at 11am, 12pm, 1pm and 2pm and each session will last 30 minutes.
