Now that the Christmas and New Year festivities are well and truly over, it's time to plan for next year's parties. Already? Yes, if you are going to make your own wine for the guests, and perhaps beer or mead. For the beginner or the experienced brewer, this is an absorbing and fascinating hobby, with an end product that can be enjoyed by all.
Can I make beer at 5p a pint? Will my elderflower wine be as good as the wine I buy? What equipment do I need? In the studio, ready to discuss all aspects of this art with you will be Cyril Berry , Editor of Amateur Winemaker magazine and Ben Turner , both of whom have written extensively on the subject.
In the Chair Sue MacGregor Produced by the Woman's Hour Unit

Bernard Jack is a 'wood man' in two senses: he is fascinated by trees that are living and growing, and also by the fine woods they produce after they are felled. He spends many hours enjoying and cataloguing the trees in his pleasant rural part of Staffordshire, but he is also a craftsman. In his workshop - formerly a railway waiting-room - he restores antique furniture in the original woods, and using the original craftsman's tools.
