Fourth in a nine-part series on people and practice in international business.

The Madness of King George was made with British talent and American money, while Clockwork Mice is an entirely home-produced product.
Adroit marketing is vital to both. This programme describes the different routes by which each film made it to the big screen and shows how intense media exposure helped to secure four Oscar nominations for The Madness of King George.

In the fifth of six programmes, travelling chef Gary Rhodes takes a trip into the past when he revisits the catering college where he embarked on a course back in 1976 - Thanet College in his native Kent. Having won prizes there as student of the year and best chef of the year, he returns to the kitchen where he cooked his first meal, and prepares a mustard and leek crumble on cheesy mashed potatoes. He then heads off to Whitstable beach where his barbecued fish goes down smoothly with mayonnaise dips and hot and cold salsa, before joining Turkish-Cypriot families gathering cobnuts in the Kent countryside. Even further from the kitchen where it all started, he makes a day-trip to Boulogne to champion the cause of traditional British cheese, before returning to the college for his final dish - a luxury jam tart made with puff pastry, frangipane filling and homemade blackberry jam.

BBC Book: More Rhodes around Britain, featuring recipes from the series, is available price £15.99 from booksellers.
