The Mushroom Man

Helen Mark heads into a mid-Wales forest on a fungi foray with Daniel Butler and a dog.

"Mushroom fans, foragers like myself - and mycologists even more so - hate the word toadstool because it's basically just yet another example of British prejudice against mushrooms." Writer and forager Daniel Butler leads the charge against British mushroom ignorance as he steers a small group - plus dog - into the woods of mid-Wales. They're looking for tasty porcini, or penny bun mushrooms, to cook and eat. They find so many we can't tell you where they went.

Presented by Helen Mark and produced by Miles Warde
