Rum story: TV star Ade Edmondson, centre back, with staff of the Gincase at Mawbray. The tearoom will be featured on Ade in Britain next week.

Filming has taken place at The Gincase for a new ITV series called Ade in Britain.

Val Nattrass, owner of the Gincase Tearoom will feature on the programme being aired on Monday, as she teaches the former The Young Ones star to make Cumberland Rum Nicky.

The visit is part of a programme about 18th century Whitehaven, which was then the second largest port in Britain.

It is assumed that the word “nicky” derived from flan ingredients that were often stolen from ships.

Mrs Nattrass said Edmondson and his crew spent several hours at the Gincase.
