Bungay’s most famous resident, Julian Assange, held a big 40th birthday bash yesterday, with movie star couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie rumoured to have attended.

Mr Assange celebrated his birthday in style at the ten bedroom Ellingham Hall Estate, near Bungay yesterday.

A number of high profile guests were rumoured to have attended the Wikileaks whistleblower’s 40th party, including Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. Marquees were set up in the estate with preparations for helicopters, for those wishing to arrive discreetly.

Mr Assange brought the worlds eye to Bungay after his site Wikileaks caused world wide uproar after revealing secret documents from a number of nations. His party comes just two days before a court hearing on Tuesday, which will decide whether or not he will be extradited to Sweden for questioning.
