A celebrity chef visited the north Norfolk coast this week and prepared a dish on the beach.

Phil Vickery was filmed at Davies Fish Shop in Cromer, which recently celebrated its 50th anniversary, at the start of Wednesday's episode of ITV's This Morning.

He purchased some Cromer crab and met owner John Davies, who runs the business with his wife Claire.
