Si and Dave continue their foodie journey through time, as they celebrate British food.

In this programme, they discover how necessity often forced British cooks to pull out all the stops in an effort to create tasty dishes. In fact some of our favourite meals have been born out of hard times. From tummy fillers like mince and dumplings to hearty scotch broths, when the going gets tough, we often turn to food for comfort.

Stunning dishes and fascinating stories told by the popular culinary duo.
