Great British Menu

Great Britons

Great British Menu (and presenter Andi Oliver) is celebrating its 20th anniversary – with the theme of "Great Britons" the chefs draw inspiration from their choice of important people, from ancient to modern history, who’ve come from their area. Each episode will also feature a guest judge, with strong connections to the region or nation being judged, who will help decide the winning chef.
