Kate Adie has a reputation for fearless BBC reporting from wars zones, riots and natural disasters.

But, of all things, she has a mild fear of porridge.

Marcus Brigstocke helps Kate to overcome this fear for the very first time, and has a small taste of the traditional breakfast food.

She tries some other things entirely new to her too - yoga, the TV series The Sopranos, bingo and reading Swallows and Amazons.

Created and produced by Bill Dare.

First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in March 2011. Show less
