SOME KFC outlets in Britain are to remain shut for the rest of the week, the fast-food operator said on Tuesday as a supply crisis rumbled on, leaving fans craving a fix of deep-fried chicken.

About 450 of the chain's 900 outlets remained closed late on Tuesday after "operational issues" with new German delivery supplier DHL left them without poultry supplies.
