Elsie Widdowson

Dick and Dom reveal the genius of food expert Elsie Widdowson, who helped to devise wartime rationing. Under her diet, Britain was the healthiest it had ever been. Inspired by Widdowson, Dick and Dom come up with their own genius idea involving rations, army cadets and a gruelling assault course.
