In celebration of World Children’s Day, Jay Rayner and the panel are at the Academy of St Nicholas in Liverpool answering questions from an audience of pupils and teachers. Joining Jay at his school desk are chefs, cooks and food writers Melissa Thompson, Jordan Bourke and Rob Owen Brown and materials expert Dr Zoe Laughlin.

The panellists share their best salt and pepper chicken recipes, explain why some cheeses melt more than others, and answer the most trying of questions - do you call your evening meal tea or dinner?

Encouraged by the Head of Design and Technology, Katie Bell, the students receive helpful tips and recipes from the panel for their upcoming cookery exams.

World Children’s Day has been honoured every year since 1954 and is aimed at improving children's welfare.

Panel: Rob Owen Brown, Dr Zoe Laughlin, Melissa Thompson, Jordan Bourke

Jay Rayner and the panel are in Hastings in front of a live audience who are in need of answers to their kitchen conundrums. Joining Jay to offer their best advice are chefs, cooks and food writers Melissa Thompson, Sophie Wright and Shelina Permalloo, alongside resident food historian Dr Annie Gray. Jay welcomes local fishmonger, Sonny Elliot from Rock-A-Nor Fisheries to give a flavour of the local fish while the panel suggest uses for a bottle of advocaat and tackle one of the trickiest of questions… is life too short to peel a pineapple? Also, with the Battle of Hastings serving as inspiration, they turn their taste buds to Normandy, and in particular, the delicious cream produced in the region.
