This photo was made at Portishead Horticultural Society Summer Show.
Punch and Judy is a traditional English puppet show that dates back to the 17th Century and is known for its slapstick violence and bawdy humor. Puppeteer Glyn Edwards once described its central character, Mr. Punch, as "a subversive maverick who defies authority." #FolkyFriday
