Olympic stars meet fans at Dartmouth Royal Regatta

Hannah Mills poses with a fan

It's been a weekend of fun on and off the water in Dartmouth for the town's Royal Regatta. Among the many highlights was the appearance of some of the Westcountry's Olympians. Fresh back from Rio many of them were there to chat to some of their new fans and show off their medals.

For those of us still suffering withdrawal symptoms that the Olympics is over - the place to be this weekend has been the Dartmouth Royal Regatta - where among the crowds - were some of the South West's Olympians.

Fresh from Rio gold medal success, sailor Hannah Mills - who trains in Weymouth - was engulfed by fans.

Also at the regatta was Rio Silver medallist Nick Dempsey who recently announced, at the grand old age of 36 - his retirement.

Dartmouth Royal Regatta is a highlight of the Westcountry calendar - but the Dartmouth Regatta with some of our nation's Olympians in tow? Well it doesn't get any better.
