A delicatessen is to feature in a top TV chef's food guidebook.

Trencherman and Turner, Grove Road, Eastbourne, is listed in the Rick Stein directory of UK small specialist suppliers.

The shop, which opened four months ago, will appear in the book when it is published in August in conjunction with a televised series.

Owner Emmett Turner, 31, moved from London three years ago and lives in Eastbourne.

He was contacted by BBC researchers who found his details through his membership of the Guild of Fine Food Retailers.

They quizzed him on his stock and suppliers and asked if he wanted to appear in the directory.

The shop stocks a variety of produce, including cheese and sausages from Sussex and around the country, including bread from Infinity Foods, based in Brighton.

Mr Turner said: "It is the only deli in Sussex that has made it in and I am chuffed to bits."

The shop is in the Little Chelsea area of Eastbourne.
