AN award-winning comedian was full of praise for the 'proper chips' at a popular Worcester chip shop.
But the owners of Seacrest Fish Bar were shocked after finding out Eddy Brimson, who has 20 years of experience as a comedian and has appeared on BBC Radio 4, visited and gave such a great review.
Mr Brimson took to social media to review the chips at the London Road chippy, posting a video of his findings as part of his weekly 'Eddy's Chip Shop chip review.'
He ordered the regular sized chips and was impressed by the 'huge portion' he received for his £3 investment.

He added: "There are enough chips in this portion for two people, it's massive, and they look great as well.
"The chips were lovely and hot, freshly cooked, and had a lovely crunch on them."
He praised Seacrest Fish Bar for serving 'proper chips'.
"They're really good chips, they have a lovely crunch on the outside and are soft and fluffy in the middle.
"The chips are brilliantly done, that is a very, very good chip shop."

He revealed he used to live in Worcester and expressed his regret that he had never tried Seacrest Fish Bar before.
Mr Brimson also performed his first-ever paid gig in Worcester and described it as a 'wonderful city' which is 'steeped in history'.
The weekly show sees Eddy go to chip shops around the country, but he doesn't review anything except the chips.
Chip shop owner Mohammed Sayyab told the Worcester News he was shocked to hear a well-renowned comedian had visited his store.
"We really appreciate the review, it's very nice to hear.
"We always try our best with all our meals and we cook all fish and chips freshly for each order.
"We weren't aware who it was, it is quite a shock but we are very pleased."
Seacrest Fish Bar has been a staple of Worcester for nearly 50 years.
Mr Sayyab has been running the chip shop for the past four years alongside his wife, son and daughter.
He added: "We are getting along ok but it is very hard now, everything is getting more expensive.
"Hopefully more people will see the review and come to the shop."
