OMD's Andy McCluskey, F1 apprentice and Miss England finalist Ellie Pacey, Trisha Goddard.

Chef Marcus Wareing, The Fast and the Farmer-ish competitor Ellie Pacey, plane crash survivor Tulsi Vagjiani, Andy McCluskey on art and OMD, Trisha Goddard's Inheritance Tracks.

Marcus Wareing joins Nikki Bedi and Richard Coles. The award-winning chef, food writer, restauranteur and judge on MasterChef: The Professionals is now  learning new skills as he produces food on his small holding in East Sussex.

Ellie Pacey is a former British Tractor Pulling champion who has recently taken part in BBC 3’s The Fast and the Farmer-ish. She’s also a Formula 1 apprentice test technician and has been a Miss England finalist.

Tulsi Vagjiani survived a plane crash which killed her parents and younger brother in 1990.  She underwent more than 50 operations to repair facial burns. Going through this extraordinary ordeal would eventually set her on a path to becoming a campaigner for those with visible differences. She’s now a motivational speaker, never happier than when she is giving talks in schools.

Trisha Goddard shares her Inheritance Tracks: I Want You Back by The Jackson 5 and Say Ladeo by Bobby McFerrin.

Andy McCluskey founded Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark with a school friend. The band have sold over 25 million singles and 15 million albums. But Andy’s first love was art. He explains why he’s a devoted collector of Maurice Wade, and why sharing his work is important.

Marcus Wareing’s Tales from a Kitchen Garden continues Monday to Friday on BBC 2 at 6.30pm. And you can watch any episodes you’ve missed via the iPlayer.
Trisha Goddard presents You Are What You Eat, the full series is available on My5 and there’s also a companion book.
Maurice Wade, Silent Landscapes - The Andy McCluskey Collection opens Friday 25th March at Trent Art Gallery, Newcastle under Lyme.
