In the Magpie Café, which is always full, chef Paul Gildroy serves Fish'n'Chips, the housespeciality, and the quintessentially British fast-food! It should, in theory, be an easychallenge for Sarah, except that she has to catch the fish in the North Sea first! What'smore, the English, who are very attached to their traditions, suddenly seem to lose theirsense of humour when it comes to criticising their Fish'n'Chips!

02 - AMONG THE GREEN WELSH HILLSIt's the country of sheep and of places with unpronounceable names,like Machynlleth, the home village of slow food king, Gareth Jones.

Gareth gives Sarah Wiener her second challenge: Cheddar Fritters as a starter, and forthe main dish, a tall order, and a legendary British dish on the other side of the Channel -lamb in honey with mint sauce and algae balls. Sarah Wiener is suspicious of each one ofthe ingredients, but she has seen other unlikely ingredients in her time, and admits thatseasoning lamb with mint sauce is a real challenge.

03 - SKYE'S THE LIMIT !This culinary challenge takes Sarah Wiener to Scotland, and moreprecisely to the Isle of Skye, to Michael Smith's kitchen.

In his restaurant the "Three Chimneys", Michael has put together a high-performanceexercise for Sarah: she has to prepare a Kedgeree, a dish based on three different typesof salmon. She also has to make a dessert from raspberries, honey, cream and whisky -Scottish whisky, of course! The dessert, called "Cranachan" is as unpronounceable as itis difficult to make. On the Isle of Skye, peat is collected for heating, and people are onlyallowed to fish if they don't each what they catch. Which doesn't exactly fill them up!

04 - THE FAMOUS (BIG) TWELVEContinuing her adventures in the cooking of Great Britain, SarahWiener's next stop is in North Yorkshire, not far from England'shighest peat bogs. Pickering is a small town on the edge of a vastpeat bog.

Victor Buchanan, who runs the White Swan Inn, awaits his guest with a challenge thatwill require great sleight of hand - roasting a Red Grouse to perfection, until the skincrackles. Hunting the bird is one of England's great high-society events. It used to bereserved for the aristocracy and major landowners but today it is not uncommon to seeCity bankers being dropped off at the hunt by helicopter! But before she can load hergun, Sarah Wiener has to answer three questions: What exactly is the famous twelve?What does Sarah like about hunting? And how should the bird be roasted in order to getthat deliciously crackly skin?

05 - THE SUNDAY ROASTFor the fifth leg of her culinary journey, Sarah Wiener discovers thecooking of Sussex.

In the Sussex Ox restaurant, Sarah is welcomed by boss Neil Wakefield. This time, she'sgot to get the ancient tradition of the Sunday Roast just right. The meal she has to cookconsists of a lovely piece of beef, two vegetables and a Yorkshire pudding. The meatcomes directly from the rich prairies of Sussex (the region is reputed for its cattle, whichallegedly provide the best beef in Great Britain). And just around the corner is a realvineyard and also real oysters. So far, so good. But what is a real Yorkshire Puddingactually like, and how is it made?

06 - TAKING THE PLUNGEThe sixth leg and Sarah's sixth challenge. We're off to the Isle of Man,where Tim Croft has set Sarah a challenge that initially leaves herfeeling stumped.

Sarah Wiener has to learn how to make a dish with a layer of stewed apple, coveredwith a slice of that not-so-sweet pudding, Black Pudding, topped with tender scallops. Tosource the seafood, she has no choice but to get wet, as scallops don't exactly jump outof the water and onto the plate all by themselves! Unfortunately, the weather forecast isnot at its best, the water is a chilly 12 degrees, and not only are the scallops 20 metresunderwater, they are not always entirely cooperative. Sarah could happily deal with allof that, if only it weren't for the black pudding! She already had rather an eventful blackpudding experience in Germany.

07 - THE PERFECT PICNICIn the pretty seaside resort of Weymouth, on the south coast ofEngland in the county of Dorset, Sarah Wiener's going to have to getstuck in once again - she's been asked to put together the perfectEnglish picnic.

The biscuits must be crunchy, the pasta plentiful, the china beautifully thin, and thechampagne (which is absolutely essential!) perfectly chilled. And of course there mustbe tea to drink, which the English take very seriously! But the content of the hampers isless important than the actual location of the picnic, which has to be chosen with greatcare. One venue malfunction and the day will be a disaster! The weather should do bedoing its bit too, but sadly, a storm has been forecast! There is one silver lining though.Sarah will be meeting some real druids (who are bakers in real life). Will the gods lookkindly upon her?

08 - THE HUNT IS ON !For the eighth leg of her culinary adventures, Sarah Wiener travels toNorthern Ireland, where she visits the Duke of Abercorn, the ownerof the Belle Isle estate.

The Duke of Abercorn owns the whole region, or nearly - the moors, the fields, thesurrounding lakes, and the forests where Sika deer hide. Leg of Sika deer, served witha potato and nettle purée is a local speciality, from the venison right down to themashed potato. The potato is omnipresent in Irish cooking. The great famine that struckthe country more than a century ago (partly due to mildew which rotted the tuber)traumatised the country and remains etched in people's memories. Sarah Wiener meetsorganic farmers who grow a variety of potato that is resistant to disease. She also meetshunters who take a keen interest in the region's deer.

09 - BUMPER BRITISH BREAKFASTFor once, Sarah Wiener can't wait to get stuck in: the lovely JillJobson serves her an English Breakfast in an idyllic Cornwall setting.An English breakfast is a revered institution throughout the UnitedKingdom.

It starts off with a bowl of porridge - oats cooked in salted water - followed bysausages and bacon with scrambled eggs, served up with hot tomatoes, mushrooms andmarmalade. Where did the custom for having such a large meal early in the morningcome from? One thing is certain - a pot of tea must always grace the table. For a fewyears now, tea plantations have existed in England. Originally, tea came from China, justas Black Pigs, with their large-ears, came from Cornwall. To make the challenge a littlemore complex, Sarah also has to look for some forgotten gardens. But none of that reallymatters compared to the most important issue of all: should the bacon be sliced ultra-thinly, or just very thinly?

10 - FINAL ON THE THAMESThe final leg of her culinary journey takes Sarah Wiener to WalthamAbbey, about thirty kilometres outside London, to the heart ofworking-class gastronomy.

In Tony Lane's Pie and Mash Shop, the chef himself serves the house speciality, whichis also the speciality of East London - jellied eels, accompanied with a meat and potatopie with parsley sauce. David Beckham loves it, Tony Lane loves it, and Sarah Wiener...well, she's still not quite sure what to make of it! The eels in question are still caught inthe Thames, despite the fact that the river earned the nickname "The Great Stink" over150 years ago. On a cheerier note, only a few kilometres away, the world's best salt isgathered! Sarah Wiener ends up putting more vegetables and vitamins in the dish thatshe should have - she just can't help herself! Be warned Sarah, the jury is no pushover.It's made up of four football fans! And all they want to eat I swhat they've always eaten!
