Joan Rivers tucks into fish and chips in Westcliff
ICONIC star Joan Rivers popped into one of Southend's oldest fish and chip restaurants while she was in town performing at the Cliffs Pavilion.
Staff at Oldham's in West Road, Westcliff, were stunned when the American legend popped in for supper on Friday night.
She tweeted: "BEST fish and chips in Southend. If in the area you must go to Oldhams. Wonderful fresh fish, mushy peas, lovely staff!"
Family-owned Oldham's has been running since 1967.

I guess she must have eaten fish and chips in all the other chippies in Southend to have come to that conclusion.

Joan is so funny, just watch Fashion Police. Of course you have to like that sort of humour. She is a legend. I wocld be chuffed to bits to get a glimse of her.
