BBC Two - Great British Food Revival, Series Three, Sardines and Gooseberries

Giorgio Locatelli champions British sardines and Jason Atherton fights for gooseberries.

Foodies champion British produce. Giorgio Locatelli campaigns for the revival of the British sardine and Jason Atherton battles for the British gooseberry.

Michelin starred chef Giorgio Locatelli makes his first appearance on the series and heads to Cornwall. He discovers how the Cornish fishermen used some clever spin to turn the old fashioned and failing pilchard into the trendy sardine that everyone puts on their barbeque. He also tracks down the historical Stargazy pie, a dish which celebrates a heroic fisherman's sardine catch during one particularly bad winter.

Another Michelin starred chef Jason Atherton discovers that the gooseberry is no longer a summer fruit of choice in the UK as sales of this berry have fallen dramatically. He is determined to change our perception of it and cooks three mouth watering dishes to prove just how versatile and tasty it can be. He investigates the world of the competitive gooseberry growing and is given access to a contestant's top secret garden.
