You might recognise my friend and colleague Steve Lamb from the River Cottage TV series, where he provided the northern charm and cheekiness that made him a perfect foil for laid back Gill Meller and earnest Hugh Fearnley Whittingstall. He’s written River Cottage handbooks, hosted stages at festivals and taught legions of students to cure and smoke meat and fish and make simple cheeses. He’s at his happiest with his beautiful family around him, camping their way through the summer months with a menagerie of different animals in tow. He gives a good hug and he’ll always remember to ask about the things that matter to you, because under all that banter, he’s an absolute sweetheart. He makes me laugh - a lot - and you can’t ask for more than that.

Tim Hayward is a big warm bear of a man with a wicked sense of humour, an aversion to ‘woo woo’ and a muscular writing style that belies his soft underbelly. He’s a food critic, regular on radio programs such as The Kitchen Cabinet and author of many wonderful books (find links below). His latest book Loaf Story is a love story to bread told as a series of food memories, which you can enjoy even if you can’t actually eat the exact stuff referred to in the book. In fact, it may be quite cathartic if you have issues with gluten!
We explored the nature of authenticity in food, touched on preserving national food identity and how that makes liberals uncomfortable, admitting you may have food issues even when you thought you didn’t and Tim shared his experience of surviving a nasty brush with COVID 19. I could have talked to him all day, but alas we both had lives to return to.
