A star of the long-running TV show Have I Got News For You has suggested a questionable new slogan for a seaside hotspot in Norfolk. 

On the latest episode of the BBC comedy show, which aired on Friday, May 19, one of the stories covered was about Scratby.

It was the tale of Chris Turner, from Bedfordshire, who recently found retro crisp packets from the 1960s on Scratby beach, located just to the north of Great Yarmouth.

A picture popped up on the screen of the beach in the episode and the guest host Mel Giedroyc said: "Look at that it looks lovely - because it sounds like a s***hole."

Team captain and comedian Paul Merton joked that it should be the slogan for the village when people drive in. 

The episode sent local Facebook groups into a frenzy, with one joking "no respect" and another asking if anyone knew the number for broadcast regulator Ofcom. 

Among the crisp packets found included a pre-decimalisation packet of Golden Wonder crisps, marked with a price of 5d.
