YOU have goat to be kidding - Chinese tourists flew almost 6,000 miles to meet internet-sensation Benjamin, a pygmy goat from Silkstone.
The three-month-old animal has become an online phenomenon viewed by more than 30million people after it was rejected by its mother and hand-reared by owner Tom Horsfield.
Jacky Chan, 34, said he and his eight friends, from Hong Kong, were keen to visit Pot House Hamlet and meet Benjamin for themselves.
Jacky said: "We thought Benjie was lovely and cute so decided to use holiday to come over and see him."
