A HUGE number turned out to see Mr T today (Friday) as he checked into Hillingdon to buy a Snickers bar.

The legendary star of 80's action show The A-Team is supporting local businesses and came down to Hillingdon Food and Wines on Hercies Road, Hillingdon at 2.15pm.

A big crowd was there to receive the star as he posed for photos with kids and adults alike.

Richard Turner, 64, of Norfolk Road, Uxbridge, said: "I think he's great and did very well, he took time to talk to everybody, he really seems like a nice guy."
