Bridgwater Guy Fawkes Carnival in 2009 contained 113 entrants, ranging from the large feature carts, to the single masqueraders. The overall joint winners were the entry from the Gremlins Carnival Club, with their entry titled Joust and To the Trees from Gemini Carnival Club, both of which also one the corresponding classes at the North Petherton Canival the following day.

Bridgwater Carnival 2010 was blighted by heavy rain. Despite the rain though, the usual spectacular display could be seen, with a total of 124 entries and only two of the carts had major technical problems. Gremlins Carnival Club again won the Hardy Spicer Cup as best overall local entry, with Ramblers CC as runners-up. Pentathlon CC won the Tableaux Open class, Masqueraders CC the Feature Open class and Newmarket CC won the Comedy Feature class. The Juvenile Cart class was won by Marina Sydenham JCC.

Bridgwater Carnival 2011 was hit by exceptionally heavy rain in the afternoon, causing some flood damage, but dried up for the main even in the evening. There were a total of 118 entries and only two of the carts had major technical problems, with one of those having a complete failure, resulting in the performers walking. Gremlins Carnival Club again won the Hardy Spicer Cup as best overall local entry, with Vagabonds CC as runners-up. Pentathlon CC won the Tableaux Open class, Masqueraders CC the Feature Open class and Newmarket CC won the Comedy Feature class. The Juvenile Cart class was won by Toppers JCC.

Glastonbury and Chilkwell Guy Fawkes Carnival is one of the carnivals on the Somerset County circuit. I decided to concentrate more on the sides of the carts, as well as individual and small groups of performers, including the walking entries. The Tableaux Cart Open and Feature Cart Open classes were won by Huckyduck Carnival Club and Gremlins CC respectively. The Feature Cart Local was won by Masqueraders CC, with Newmarket CC again winning the Comic Feature class. The Juvenile Class was won by Marina Sydenham JCC.

Unlike Bridgwater the night before, North Petherton Carnival was largely dry, apart from a 15 minute spell, but also colder. A little smaller than Bridgwater, there were still 109 entries. Use of flash gave a different feel to the photographs. Following technical problems later on in the procession at Bridgwater, Huckyduck Carnival Club managed to win the Tableaux Cart Open class at North Petherton, with Gremlins CC winning the Feature Cart Open class. Newmarket CC won the Cmic Feature Cart class and Mendip Vale won the Feature Cart Optional class. The Juvenile class was won by Marina Sydenham JCC, as at Bridgwater.
