BBC Two - Rick Stein's Cornwall, Series 3, Episode 9

Sea bass is served, and Rick’s on the trail of Cornwall’s greatest poet, Charles Causley.

On the trail of the 'greatest Second World War poet', Charles Causley, Rick catches up with best-selling author Patrick Gale before heading home to whip up his favourite sea bass dish.

Rick’s idea of bliss is to spend an afternoon scaling and gutting a freshly caught sea bass before using it to make a simple yet delectable dish which ranks amongst his absolute favourites – steamed sea bass with garlic, ginger and spring onions.

He travels to the far west of Cornwall to meet a potter whose work captures the rugged beauty of her surroundings, before heading to the far east of the county on the trail of the poet Charles Causley, who spent his entire life in the Cornish border town of Launceston. There, Rick meets another illustrious Cornish writer, Patrick Gale, who has written a book on Causley’s fascinating life and considers him this country’s greatest Second World War poet.
