Presented by Chris Kelly Can you recognise six different types of herb, and say how you'd use them; or make a decorative melon-basket dessert in less than 90 seconds? Could you identify two sparkling drinks, and two pink drinks ideal for the summer, just by sniffing and tasting them; or devise two dishes based on cold pasta, and prepare them in under two minutes? These are just some of the challenges which Chris Kelly sets the teams. Doing battle are resident cooks Michael Barry and Michael Smith drinks' experts Jill Goolden and Oz Clarke with special guests actress Nerys Hughes and actor Daniel Hill

A year ago the Japanese company Komatsu moved into an empty factory just south of Newcastle. Their aim was to bring the Japanese work ethic to Britain. This series of three programmes looks at the challenges facing British and Japanese workers and management in the first difficult year of the factory. 2: Bulldozers
Two managers, one British and one Japanese, are appointed to buy the parts for the assembly line. Each has to learn about the other's culture, priorities and ways of working. A harmonious relationship, or a clash of cultures?
