PUNTERS have been left in stitches after a circus was branded the ‘new Willy Wonka’ following a huge photoshop blunder.

But social media users were left in stitches by one detail.
In an aerial snap of the giant red tent in the car park, a giant loch has been photoshopped in the background where Easterhouse should be.
The photo also has a mountain region in the background instead of streets of houses that lie in the neighbouring area.
Big Kid Circus is at the shopping complex until April 21.
Social media users took to the comments to laugh at the blunder with some even comparing it to the notorious Willy Wonka Festival.
The failed festival in Glasgow went viral in February after leaving kids in tears and was pulled halfway through after furious parents blasted it as a ‘shambles’.
Hundreds of people paid £35 for the event which was meant to feature Oompa Loompas, candy and a chocolate river.
The organiser was forced to issue an apology after the staff, the event and its failures circulated on social media across the world.
