Gang including ex-Come Dine With Me winners convicted over cannabis import plot

Members of a gang, including two former winners of a Channel 4 cooking programme, have been convicted after their plan to import large amounts of cannabis was uncovered.

Nicholas Panayiotou, Eleanar Attard, Constantinos Zavros, Luke Wileman and Koby Haik planned to smuggle 58kg of cannabis into the country from the US, but were foiled following a theft at a London airport, the Metropolitan Police said.
