The Big Pie

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

This year the world's biggest meat and potato pie, big enough to feed 50,000 people, was baked in the quiet Pennine village of Denby Dale. The community's history has been dominated for 200 years by an obsession with giant pies, baked to celebrate special occasions.
Martyn Wiley tells the mouthwatering story of the bicentennial pie, and some unsavoury tales of pies past.
