Mr Gibb spoke about his time as MP for Bognor Regis and Littlehampton, and the characters he has known and met in the constituency over those years, including past Conservative Association chairmen such as Group Captain Alec Ingle, a former Battle of Britain pilot, and Retired Colonel Brian Garrard, who also led Arun District Council for a period.

He also mentioned the late Win Spearing of Littlehampton, one of Winston Churchill’s secretaries during the war.
