2: Great British Pickles
Pickles have a long and honourable tradition in the British kitchen. All of them are simple to make and pickling is fun. In kitchens from Herefordshire to
Suffolk, experts make pickled eggs, red cabbage, green vegetable pickle, pickled asparagus, field mushrooms, and marrows.
Davilia conjures up her first (sensational) pickled walnuts while David creates a 17th-century pickle of edible wild seeds and plants.

The African Eskimo
He must be one of the most unusual explorers of our time. As a boy in a remote West African village, he picked up a book about a land far beyond his imagination - a land where the sea froze, where the people wore furs and used dogs to journey across a treeless white landscape, where in high summer the sun never sets.
Michel Kpomassie was determined to reach this almost unbelievable wonderland. It took him eight years. He liked it, he made friends, he learnt the language and stayed for two years.
That was in the mid-1960s. Last spring he went back. In just 20 years there have been great changes, but the African and the Eskimo still found they had much in common.
