BBC Radio 4 - The Food Programme, The Best in Food and Farming

Sheila Dillon launches the search for the winners of the 2012 BBC Food and Farming Awards.

In this special programme Sheila Dillon launches the search for this year's winners of the BBC Food & Farming Awards.

Sheila is joined by Michelin-starred chef Angela Hartnett to catch up with some of the recent winners and nominees. With insights from last year's winners of the Best Food Producer award - Loch Arthur Creamery - to the Best Market - Bolton - we hear why the awards make a real difference.

Valentine Warner and Pete Brown, both new to the judging team this year, give their take on the Drinks Producer and Market categories, and Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, also a winner in 2011, explains why these awards really do matter.

Producer: Rich Ward.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
