Good morning from Heathrow. The force is strong with us today and we've got some special new routes. Will you be travelling to galaxies near... or far, far away? #Maythe4th #MayTheFourth #MayThe4thBeWithYou #StarWarsDay 🌌🌟 pic.twitter.com/B9IcnMOMxC

We know it's May the 4th, but if you're caught speeding today, uttering lines such as 'this isn't the driver you're looking for' while waving your hand around will not get you out of a fine. Slow down, you must. #MayTheFourth #StarWarsDay pic.twitter.com/gw1um7kRRm

Happy #StarWarsDay! To quote Obi-Wan Kenobi, the Force is “...an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us & penetrates us; it binds the galaxy together.” #MayThe4thBeWithYou
Today, let’s acknowledge the Force, connect with each other & bring peace to OUR galaxy.— Warwick Davis (@WarwickADavis) May 4, 2018
