Malvern's critically acclaimed home cook

Upload with Nina Das Gupta

Expires on Monday 8:00pm

We're celebrating the best creatives where we live with Nina Das Gupta, including: • You've heard of the 'difficult second album' but what about the 'difficult second cookbook'? Get to know the Worcestershire foodie who's been taking the world by storm and taking us in to her kitchen with her second, once again, critically-acclaimed recipe book. • Get to know Lucy Cole, the Sutton Coldfield writer whose first ever script has already got the backing of Elstree Studios and a Grammy winner. • A pioneering short film following Dan Pembroke, a Hereford Paralympic champion, opening the eyes of audiences the world over. • By day he works for the NHS, by night, Coventry's Scott Waring writes for his children. He shares his latest work, channelling Netflix's Adolescence in a stunning piece of redemption writing. • A deeply personal play that blends protest with the events of his own life: We get to know Birmingham-born, Warwickshire writer Brian Grix, who shares his latest production. Upload your work for a chance to get on the BBC.
