DARTH Vader, alias actor David Prowse, is on a Star Wars mission to Burnley for Bank Holiday Monday.

The former Green Cross Code TV advertisement stalwart will line up alongside fellow players in the George Lucas epics for the popular annual fun day at Burnley FC.

Actors ranging from Luke Skywalker’s rebel alliance band of freedom fighters to members of the Cantina band will be available to sign autographs from 10.30am.

Admission for adults will be £6 for adults and £3 for senior citizens and children, with a laser maze and model and prop exhibits also promised.
