The last in the rerun of the series in which cooks Jennifer Paterson and Clarissa Dickson Wright tour Britain on their motorcycle and sidecar.

The intrepid duo cook for a scout group's annual camp in Kielder Forest in Northumberland. Serving up food in the wild in their makeshift kitchen, they stake their claim for a "Camp Cooking" badge when they prepare a shooter's sandwich, frittata with tomatoes, onions and basil, and easy onion soup with stilton and muttachar (spiced eggs).

A new series of Two Fat Ladies will be screened in the autumn.

The first in a new season of 26 programmes over the next three weeks which intimately captures the lives of people from all four corners of the nation.
Armed with camcorders, various film-makers explore the passions and prejudices of people all over the UK.

But his devotion hasn't gone unnoticed in royal circles and the programme captures numerous candid moments as Colin meets, advises and even reads poetry to members of his favourite family.
(White Settlers is at 11.45pm.)

First in a four-part spoof "rockumentary" written by and starring Graham Fellows.

At the age of 55, Sheffield-born former security guard and now "versatile singer/songwriter" John Shuttleworth, realises he must hit the big time before it's too late, and sets off on a rock tour of Britain with his portable organ and neighbour and agent Ken Worthington. But things don't go according to plan as the pair experience life on the road in a last-ditch attempt to achieve pop stardom.
