The organisers of National Fish & Chip Day say it's all about giving fish and chips the recognition it deserves - and who are we to argue with that?
Whether your order is a chunky piece of fish in crispy batter or simply a bag chips with curry sauce, a chippy tea is a staple treat for many of us.
National Fish and Chip Day is traditionally celebrated on the first Friday of June each year – but this year it will be observed on Thursday, June 6 to coincide with the D-Day 80 celebrations.
