Great British Menu Eps 21-25/45

Bank Holiday Monday 3 May
6.30-7.00pm ´óÏó´«Ã½ TWO

Three chefs from Wales – James Sommerin (The Crown at Whitebrook), Richard Davies (The Manor House) and Aled Williams (Plas Bodegroes) – compete this week for the chance to cook at a fabulous banquet celebrating the wealth of delicious produce grown, reared and fished across the UK, to be hosted by HRH The Prince of Wales.

With 24 chefs across eight regions, competition is fierce and there's extra pressure on them all to source as many ingredients as possible from new, local suppliers.

James Sommerin's hunt for ingredients begins at the Llanerchaeron estate, which dates back to the 18th century. He's inspired to use sea trout (sewin) for his fish course – poached and smoked sewin with apple, beetroot, turnip and smoked mussels – on a visit to the River Aeron, where he meets Ricky Wilson, a fisherman who uses a coracle, a traditional method of fishing used hundreds of years ago. James's menu also includes a starter of pressed chicken terrine with asparagus, onion and jasmine; a main course of lamb four ways with salt-baked celeriac, rosemary and tomato; and beetroot parfait with a chocolate and raspberry brownie for dessert.

Richard Davies based the search for his new suppliers in and around the Stackpole estate in Pembrokeshire, South Wales. He was very keen on featuring meat from rare breed cattle in his main course dish and eventually decided on Welsh Black beef following a visit to Trehill Farm, one of the tenant farms on the estate, serving it with leek and potato terrine and shallot puree. Richard's starter is a summer salad of pea mousse with pickled beetroot and carrots; his fish dish is poached lobster with confit potatoes and tomato chutney; and his dessert is mint mousse with hazelnut biscuit, strawberry sorbet and juice.

Aled Williams was challenged with sourcing ingredients from new suppliers in the vicinity of Penrhyn Castle, a 19th-century neo-Norman castle, located between Snowdonia and the Menai Strait in North Wales. In search of unusual flavours for his dessert (lemon verbena baked custard with strawberries and black pepper shortbread), he learns more about lemon verbena from Rowena Mansfield, a herb grower on the Isle of Anglesey. Also on Aled's menu are ham hock with cawl cennin foam and smoked cheddar mousse; sea bass with brown crab, fennel puree and tomato and herb dressing; and loin and shoulder of hogget with morels, asparagus and broad beans.

Veteran chef Stephen Terry awards points for taste and technical ability, and the chef with the lowest total score on Thursday leaves the competition. The two remaining chefs go through to cook for the Great British Menu judges – Oliver Peyton, Prue Leith and Matthew Fort – on Friday.

CBEEBIES Bank Holiday Monday 3 May 2010

Everything's Rosie Eps 1-5/26

New series
Bank Holiday Monday 3 to Friday 7 May
9.35-9.45am CBEEBIES
1.35-1.45pm CBEEBIES
Everything's Rosie on CBeebies
Everything's Rosie on CBeebies

There's a new girl in town this week, and her name is Rosie. Together with her colourful friends, Rosie takes CBeebies' viewers on a journey to her bright, beautiful world packed with adventures and charming delights.

Confident, caring Rosie shares her world with her best friend Raggles, an endearing rabbit; Bluebird and her chatty beak; boisterous Will; placid Holly; polite and playful Big Bear; and Oakley, a calm soul who happens to be a 100-year-old oak tree.

Everything's Rosie is all about friendship. Together, Rosie and her group of friends embark on playful journeys of discovery, interaction and fun.

On Monday, Oakley wants to join in with his friends' game of hide-and-seek and find out How To Hide An Oak Tree. There's just the small issue of Oakley's enormous size and obvious visibility... Not even a touch of Bluebird's magic can help hide him, so Rosie, Raggles and their friends set about trying to make Oakley disappear.

Ala-Kalama-Kazagaza-Zoom is the cry on Tuesday, when everyone is amazed that Bluebird's vanishing trick actually seems to have worked. They are all convinced that Bluebird has made Raggles disappear before their very eyes. But having never before managed such a trick, Bluebird has no idea as to how she can make Raggles reappear.

In Wednesday's midweek treat Will is convinced he can fly – it's just that his arms aren't feathery enough to pass as wings. Bluebird tries to magic him some; alas, without success. Not being one to admit he needs help, Will eventually turns to Rosie, who has a plan to enable Will's wish to come true.

On Thursday, Big Bear is worried as he has received an invitation to have tea with the Queen – but while he has been on plenty of picnics, he's never gone to tea... So in best Pygmalion style, Rosie and Raggles teach him "going to tea" etiquette. Of course, the invitation is a prank by Will so Rosie and Raggles invite a disappointed Big Bear to have tea with them, which he does in style.

Wrapping up the week, in From Little Acorns Great Oakleys Will Sleep, Oakley hasn't had a good night's sleep for weeks – all because his Little Acorns keep him awake with their chattering. So Rosie comes up with the idea to get them into shape as a choir, teaching them a beautiful lullaby... and pretty soon, Oakley is having the soundest sleep he's ever had.

Mission:2110 Eps 1-3/13

New series
Bank Holiday Monday 3 to Wednesday 5 May
5.45-6.15pm C´óÏó´«Ã½
A Roboid prepares for battle in Mission:2110
A Roboid prepares for battle in Mission:2110

Exploding onto C´óÏó´«Ã½ screens this week is Mission:2110, an ambitious new sci-fi drama game show which catapults viewers into the next century.

Written by Doctor Who and The Sarah Jane Adventures writer Phil Ford and showcasing the voice of award-winning actress Lindsay Duncan, the bold series features characters created by prosthetic and costume specialists Millennium FX (Doctor Who, The Day Of The Triffids).

Set in a post-apocalyptic landscape, Mission:2110 sees teams of contestants spanning time to travel to the futuristic setting of Earth to try to restore peace and stability. The young recruits are guided by part-human/part-machine mentor Caleb in a battle against the Roboidz – intelligent, towering cybernetic entities who rule the planet. In order to outwit the Roboidz, these intrepid adventurers must complete challenges to snatch bio-rods, the enemy's vital fuel source, in order to shut down their empire.

Young recruits from a century before are transported by Caleb using a malfunctioning time portal. They must find a way to defeat the deadly Roboidz and unlock both their secrets and those of Future Gate – an enormous ship which houses the Roboidz base.

They will need to use their cunning, guile and intelligence to beat the mighty tyrants in order to avoid being vaporised. But can they succeed?

In the first programme the four contestants – Ayoife, Max, Conor and Melanie – must use their courage and a steady hand to tackle the first two games, Shade Alley and Live Wire, on board Future Gate. Using logic they must calculate the correct combination of coloured balls in Frozen Vaults and they need stealth and teamwork to correctly connect five sections of cable to the Roboidz recharge post in Overload.

Mission:2110 is supported online by a site combining interactive narrative with game play.

Lindsay Duncan (Doctor Who, Rome) voices Neuros and Cybele, the good and evil alter egos of Roboidz creator Laura Gant; and C´óÏó´«Ã½'s newest recruit, Stuart Goldsmith, stars as the show's hero, Caleb.
