Bristol actor Joe Sims has become the first person to chuck their recycling into one of the containers at the new South Bristol Recycling Centre in an opening ceremony with a difference this morning.
The star of Broadchurch deposited a large sewer pipe into the hard plastics container, alongside Mayor Marvin Rees, who had brought recycling from his own home.
The new £4m facility in Bedminster has finally opened today, Tuesday June 21, after a long and painful process of getting the project done ten years after it was first given the go-ahead.
