Something from the Cellar: Superstar Chefs

Ahead of a very special guest on Friday (listen in to find out who it is...) we thought this was the perfect time to celebrate the fabulous range of superstar chefs who have joined us for a chinwag. These three are titans of the industry: Rick Stein chats to us about the rocky start to his career and how sailing around the world opened his eyes - and tastebuds - to things he could never have imagined. We also hear from James Martin and Marcus Wareing about their respective starts in the industry, the values they share and how nothing is a substitute for relentless, persistent, and often stubborn hard work!
