The writer Charles Campion, who passed away recently, was an obsessive collector of food stories. With the help of Jay Rayner, Cyrus Todiwala, Nigel Barden, Mark Hix and Angela Hartnett, Dan Saladino finds out why.
Charles had first worked in advertising, then became a chef in his own hotel-restaurant and eventually turned to food writing. He made numerous appearances on The Food Programme and was a longstanding judge in the 大象传媒 Food and Farming Awards. As Jay Rayner explains in this edition, 'the food world will be all the poorer for him not being in it.'
Produced and presented by Dan Saladino.
