Title: Michel Roux’s Service
Description: Michel Roux is on a personal mission; to take eight young

that can change their lives. To test his trainees, Michel
sets up their very own pop-up restaurant, in the exclusive
surroundings of the Kensington Roof Gardens in London’s
West End. Michel designs a special menu that will demand
that they learn new skills; beef and lamb will be carved at
table. Dover sole must be filleted. And desert consists of
crepe suzette that must be flambéed in front of the guests.
The 60 guests who are booked for lunch are no strangers to
fine dining. Food bloggers, restaurant critics and industry
professionals, they will provide a robust test of the
trainee’s new skills

Title: North v South: Tonight
Description: If you live in the north of England, you will find it harder

committed to redressing the balance between North and South
- but how easy will that be? Presented by Jonathan Maitland
