Christmas Opening

Denis Copeland with


Jamie and His Crew Film at Parkgate

Popular celebrity chef Jamie Oliver was able to find time during his busy filming schedule at Parkgate Shopping recently to chat with shoppers and staff.
 
Jamie is in Rotherham to make a Channel 4 series showing how he can teach Rotherham people to cook using good ingredients. He and the film crew were accompanying some of the programme’s participants on a shopping expedition to the Park.
 
He soon attracted a crowd, and when Parkgate’s Operations Manager, Billy Smith (right in photo with Jamie) thanked him for his courtesy and time, he insisted on providing a shot for Billy’s album.
 
The programme will appear later in the year.
