A County Durham schoolgirl has gone 'viral' after videos of her turning up to prom in a HGV were shared online.
With over two and a half million views across social media, Rebecca Potter's prom arrival has captured hearts all over the country.
The Katem Logistics truck made quite the entrance, turning heads and earning admiration for its originality and sentiment.
They've backed Thomas through six karting championships and into the world of car racing.

The vehicle caused quite a stir when it pulled up outside Belmont Community School, earning praise from pupils and parents.
Behind the wheel was Matthew Chaganis, Director of Katem Logistics, who personally ensured Rebecca arrived in style.
Matthew said: "It was a proud moment for all of us.
"Rebecca's reaction, the excitement from her classmates, and the response online have been overwhelming.
"At Katem, we're a family-run business, and community means everything to us.
"Supporting Thomas has been an honour, and this felt like a wonderful way to celebrate another young person in his life."
The company's flagship anniversary truck had been recently painted a bold blue in celebration of the 90th birthday of Katem's much-loved 'Commander-in-Chief', which helped Rebecca make quite the entrance.
