From screen to spoon... introducing Virgin Media s TV Diner

Tomorrow will see the opening of Virgin Media's TV Diner' the first pop-up restaurant to serve up an entire menu of classic dishes made famous from film and TV's most memorable on-screen moments.

Neil Rankin, said: Developing the menu for the TV Diner has been a brilliant challenge, I'm a huge film and Box Set fan myself so the opportunity to create dishes inspired by cult classics was just too good to pass up. I'm looking forward to welcoming telly and film buffs through the door and giving them the chance to taste their favourite characters' food.

Richard Larcombe, Director of Brand and Marketing at Virgin Media, added: We're really excited to open the TV Diner - food, film and TV go naturally hand in hand so this felt like the perfect way to demonstrate Virgin Media's huge entertainment library. I cant wait to see how many people take on the mammoth Big Kahuna burger and $5 shake - its not for the faint-hearted!"
