Inside Greggs: Britain's Best Bakery is a Channel 5 documentary focusing on one of the UK's much-loved high street chains. With humble beginnings in its Tyneside home, it's now seen sales exceed £1billion. But how did the bakery grow from Greggs of Gosforth serving fresh bread and treats around the local area, to a successful business with over 1,700 shops across the UK?
