BBC One - A Taste of Britain, Series 1, Cheshire

Brian and Janet start their tour of Cheshire at Alderley Edge.

Food programme exploring specialities from around Britain. Brian Turner and Janet Street-Porter start their tour of Cheshire overlooking the countryside from Alderley Edge.

Cheshire is the county getting the Taste of Britain treatment in this episode. Brian and Janet start their tour of the county overlooking the countryside from Alderley Edge before doing a spot of trout fishing nearby. 

A visit to a smokehouse inspires Brian's first recipe - smoked trout pate - excellent sustenance for Janet who's heading down one of Cheshire's historic copper mines. Meanwhile, Brian meets South African-born chef Ernst van Zyl at the Lord Clyde pub, who creates a beautiful dish for Janet to enjoy. 

Tatton Park satisfies Janet's passion for historic buildings and architecture while Brian tours the kitchen garden and rare breed farm on the estate. The celebratory dish features rare breed Hebridean lamb cooked for Cheshire friends against the backdrop of Tatton's magnificent house.
