Nigel Slater hosts a chat show which explores the lives and loves of celebrities through their personal experiences of food. 

Brenda Blethyn talks with fondness about growing up as one of nine children in a time of rationing and she affectionately remembers a chaotic and happy household. Timothy Spall reminisces over their friendship with some rather revealing parlour games and challenges her to make a steak and kidney pie, plus actor Robert Daws makes a classic knickerbocker glory.

Over her final feast she reflects on how she could have been the original footballer's wife - if one of her first loves hadn't emigrated to Australia.
