'Gregg Wallace' is working at Whitehall Garden Centre...



What’s Gregg Wallace doing behind a desk at Whitehall Garden Centre, Lacock?

Perhaps he’s heard about Whitehall’s fabulous food hall and is doing a bit of industrial espionage before the next series of Masterchef. If so, he’s not very good at disguises…

But, on a closer inspection…it’s…..no, it can't be…it’s not the man with the sweetest tooth on the telly at all…of course, now we can see it…it’s Steve, the centre’s senior plant adviser who specialises in bedding plants, behind his information desk

The resemblance was spotted by GCA inspector Roger Crookes during this year’s inspection visit. “No-one’s ever remarked on it before,” says Steve’s boss, Peter Self.,, “but it is an uncanny likeness and now thanks to Roger he’s stuck with it.”

So, cheers “Gregg” – you could say it’s just desserts for such a convincing lookey-likey!
