Each week resident captain and gastronomic guru Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall is forced to defend his cooking credentials as he is challenged by a different guest captain - a famous food personality - to establish who knows the most about all things edible. In each episode Hugh and his rival are flanked by celebrity guests with a passion for food and an eye on victory. In this five-part series, the team captains and their guests must prove their knowledge through an original recipe of quick-fire questions, blind tastings with a twist, physical rounds and a range of other challenges. And Sue, at the helm, reveals a number of surprising food facts as well as awarding the much fought-over points. Intelligent, entertaining and irreverent, The Big Food Fight is a nourishing snack for connoisseurs of the comestible, covering everything from cooking to shopping, and growing to eating. The programme offers up a gastronomic - and gladiatorial - battle. |
