TV broadcasting legend Gloria Hunniford checks into the B&B. 

Gloria left Northern Ireland to pursue her career, but this stay is an opportunity for Gloria to reconnect with her roots and reminisce on all that Northern Ireland has to offer.

But when a new guest checks in for their stay, there’s no time to relax. Sharon and the team put them to work helping to run the B&B and encourage them to get stuck in with the day-to-day tasks. Gloria visits a local farm to collect some ingredients for dinner. Whilst there, she meets an award-winning flock and discovers a project that benefits the local community. 

Inspired by their trip, Gloria and chef Alex cook a feast of local lamb with cheesy gnocchi and a niçoise sauce, followed by a sticky date pudding for dessert.

No visit to the seaside is complete without a picnic on the beach, and Gloria, host Sharon and driver Rory take the opportunity for an afternoon tea on the sandy shores beside the B&B. And before Gloria checks out, she helps out in the kitchen, baking a wheaten bread just like her mother used to make.
