Please note: this episode contains frank discussion of drug and alcohol addiction as well as some explicit language

Chef and writer Alasdair Gill joins Samuel Goldsmith to talk about his raw new book, Knives and Spoons — a memoir-with-recipes charting his rise from kitchen porter to head chef, and his journey through addiction to recovery.

Alasdair opens up about why kitchens took him in when nowhere else would, growing up as the son of the late restaurant critic A.A. Gill, and how food became the thing that kept his life on track. He also shares the chaos of catering a castle wedding with two waiters, why he'd rather have a baguette and a pickle than fine dining, and his surprisingly poor crisp flavour ideas.

Musical comedy duo Flo & Joan join us to talk food, family, life on the road and the stories behind their latest shows. They reveal why the thought of Andrew Lloyd Webber turning up to their one-man musical is the stuff of nightmares, how they created a new show using another band’s abandoned setlist, and what it’s really like performing and eating your way through Edinburgh Fringe. Plus, we hear about a spectacular cooking disaster involving a fistful of cloves, a mushroom soup with unfortunate consequences, an alarming relationship with crisps, and the secret to a properly good bacon sandwich. Expect sisterly chaos, strong opinions on food and plenty of culinary confessions.
