Anglia Television report on unusual competitions in Cromer.
Residents and holiday-makers line the streets of Cromer awaiting the start of the annual Waiters Race. With a pop of the champagne cork, the Mayor of Cromer gets proceedings underway, as local waiters hurry to fill a drinks order, load their trays and race around the church.
