BBC Look East report on a campaign to ban the sale of French apples.

At Norwich Market, BBC East correspondent Tony Scase reports on a campaign by stallholders to ban the sale of French apples as a reprisal against the French import ban on English lamb. Stallholders are interviewed, with one claiming English apples are better anyway and another continuing to sell French apples because he can still buy them cheap. Also interviewed is Mr Seaman from the Market Traders Federation, who argues in favour of the ban, vouching for the value and quality of English apples, whilst a female customer questions the value of the Common Market in such situations, but claims she doesn't consider nationality when buying produce.
