Hollyoaks star and comedian Richard Blackwood is checking into the B&B. Richard decided at a young age that he was destined for a life in the spotlight, but he is taking a break from stardom to muck in with the B&B team.
The team task Richard with looking after the star ingredient for the B&B shopping list – making some chorizo for a French-inspired supper. The B&B’s resident chef Alex takes him to meet a local pig farmer with a speciality for charcuterie to help Richard in his mission.
Whilst staying at the B&B, all guests test their cooking skills in the kitchen, helping to prepare the evening meal. Chef Alex takes Richard under his wing to prepare a cassoulet celebrating the locally made chorizo followed by a sea buckthorn tart inspired by Northern Ireland’s coastline.
On day two, Sharon has a special task in mind for Richard. He might be known for his sharp wit, but Sharon wants him to sharpen his skills working with a local artisan producer. Can Richard handle the heat of the blacksmith's forge? Show less
