Nigel Havers

Episode 2 of 15

Chef Brian Turner takes celebrities back to their youths, using the power of food to jog colourful memories. Nigel Havers reminisces about his eventful childhood.

TV and movie star Nigel Havers travels back to Suffolk to reminisce about an eventful childhood - regaling Brian Turner with stories of betting at Newmarket races aged five and setting fire to a listed building in his parents' garden, among other capers. But there are poignant memories too, of being sent off to boarding school at six 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.
