A FAMOUS face was spotted on Southend Pier and took the time out to take a selfie with police officers.

Well-known television presenter and journalist Andi Peters was visiting Southend and members of the community policing team took the opportunity to grab a quick photo at the end of the pier.

Sgt Ian Hughes shared the picture on his Twitter page with the caption “Look who’s popped down to Southend to enjoy everything that is on offer, including PCSO Hayter’s company! #SouthendPier #GMB”

Mr Peters is currently a presenter on ITV’s Good Morning Britain and it appears he may have been in Southend on business as he tweeted “Saturday morning early risers have a great day. Filming on a beach today, let’s hope it’s as sunny as Lauratobin1 said it will be.”
