Richard has won Great British Menu three times and is a regular judge on the BBC series. Valentine Warner is a cook and food writer. He began his career in food at the Halcyon restaurant in London, working under chefs like Alastair Little and Rose Carrarini before starting his own catering company.

These days, Val spends a lot of time at Kitchen On The Edge, an extraordinary food adventure set above the Arctic Circle in the Lofoten Islands. Angela delights in cooking for her old friends, preparing Pappardelle with fennel & sausage ragu for Richard and Valentine, who are big pork fans, while Nick pours a Luigi Bosca de Sangre available online at Waitrose Cellar.
