About this episode

And just like that, we are BACK and ready to take over your Wednesdays! 

We hope you all had a lovely summer; Mum has enjoyed plenty of holidays and I had a baby. 

We’ve got some AMAZING guests lined up for you for this series and what better way to start that with fellow foodie, Hollywood star and absolute gent, Stanley Tucci.

Stanley talks to us about growing up in New York, filming his latest TV show ‘Searching For Italy’ & his fight against cancer. He celebrates his mother’s cooking (& her famous lunchbox lunches!) & reveals his less than fine dining experience with Meryl Streep. Stanley’s food memoir ‘Taste’ is fantastic and is out now. Here’s to a fabulous start to another series xx
