My Life on a Plate
Nigel Havers
S1 E2:
TV & movie star Nigel Havers travels back to Suffolk to reminisce about a colourful childhood – regaling TV chef Brian Turner with stories of betting at Newmarket races aged 5, and setting fire to a listed building in his parents’ garden, amongst other capers. But there are poignant memories too, of being sent off to boarding school at 6, and regular canings. Brian finds plenty to inspire him to cook two dishes to reflect Nigel’s life – nostalgic comfort food just like his mother’s, and a tribute dish with ingredients that touch on different elements of his fascinating childhood.
