According to a report by the Daily Mail, Worrall Thompson, 60, was filmed by the store’s hidden cameras scanning the barcodes of some of the items in his cart while skipping others and sneaking them into his bag before trying to walk out.

Security guards stopped the chef and checked his bags before calling police. According to reports, Anthony had allegedly been questioned at the Tesco store on five different occasions for similar shoplifting incidents.

“I am so sorry for all my recent stupid and irresponsible actions; I am of course devastated for my family and friends, whom I’ve let down and will seek the treatment that is clearly needed,” Warrall Thompson said in a statement on his website. “I am not the first, and I certainly won’t be the last person to do something without rhyme or reason — what went through my head, only time will tell.”

Famous for his appearances on afternoon cookery show Ready Steady Cook, the Digital Journal points out that Antony Worrall Thompson has recently run into financial trouble.

In addition to closing four of his six restaurants during the recession, the chef also had to fire 60 employees and was forced to move from his £1.6 million mansion to a more modest home.

For his offenses, Antony Worrall Thompson was issued a formal caution — a written rebuke for a crime. Police added that the chef would not face further charges but the caution can be mentioned in court if he has more trouble with the law.

Daniel Jones aka Master Morda Hehol, who created the International Church of Jediism (UK Church of the Jedi) with his brother Barney Jones (Master Jonba Hehol), claims he was victimised over his beliefs by staff at the local Tesco in Bangor, North Wales.

The church requires believers to cover their heads in public places. But the supermarket staff ejected him from the store over security fears, beause he refused to remove his hood.

Morda Hehol told the Sun:

I told them it was a requirement of my religion but they just sniggered and ordered me to leave. I walked past a Muslim lady in a veil. Surely the same rules should apply to everyone. It was discrimination. I was really upset. Nobody should be treated like that. I’ll advise worshippers to boycott Tesco if it happens again. They will feel the Force.

The jedi holocron handbook clearly states that “Jedis must wear a hood up in any public place of a large audience.”

A Tesco spokeswoman said:

Jedi are very welcome to shop in our stores although we would ask them to remove their hoods. Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda and Luke Skywalker all went hoodless without going to the Dark Side. If Jedi walk around our stores with their hoods on, they’ll miss lots of special offers.

The UK Church of Jedi was established in 2008. Jediism is practised 500,000 people around the world.
