Lineker, Lampard, Marco Pierre White and Pamela Anderson roll into Sandwich

Video: watch the stars talk about filming in Sandwich

The people behind a new advert for Walkers crisps sent footballer Frank Lampard, chef Marco Pierre White and even former bay-watch actress Pamela Anderson to shoot the campaign in Sandwich.

Crowds gathered in the town to watch the filming, which soon became the town's worst kept secret.

Boy-band JLS made an appearance at Sandwich Tech sixth form college, where they performed a lunch-time concert to the star-struck students.

And racing driver Jenson Button swapped his Formula One car for a black cab, to ferry locals around the town.
