The Northumberland Coast is so well-regarded for its seafood that it played host to a famous TV chef this week.
One half of MasterChef's dynamic presenting duo, John Torode, spent time in Seahouses and stopped off at Bamburgh Castle during filming for a segment of This Morning. The Australian-British chef is said to have cooked fish cakes while taking in the sublime views of Holy Island and the Farnes from the ancient fortress's West Ward.
Claire Watson-Armstrong of Bamburgh Castle said: "He's so lovely! I was a bit starstruck because he really is one of my favourite TV chefs, right from the days when he first came on This Morning.
