Earlier this week, This Morning presenter Josie Gibson and Loose Women presenter Jeff Brazier filmed from Sandown and Ventnor beaches and helped promote local businesses.

Jeff tagged lots of Island businesses on his social media and said he had made new friends at Toni's Tearoom on Ventnor Esplanade.

The business was delighted and posted some photos of Jeff with their staff.

He also enjoyed a meal at Smoking Lobster, which got heavily promoted on ITV on Friday.

Jeff posted on Facebook: "Had a wonderful time filming for ITV on the Isle of Wight with an amazing crew at both Sandown and Ventnor beaches.

"Thank you to the lovely people that stopped to have a chat, it was so nice to meet you all.

"Thank you to the Lakeside Park Hotel staff, Cibo for that amazing dinner, my new friends at Toni’s tea rooms and the lads at Smoking Lobster Ventnor for the unbelievable lunch.

"Should also thank the ferry staff for squeezing us on at a very busy time for them! Looking forward to coming back with the family."
