Title:         The Food We Eat: Tonight
Episode:       Future Foods
Description:   In the last of four food-related Tonight specials, Jonathan
               Maitland looks at what the future of food may look like as
               the world gets more mouths to feed and has less agricultural
               land to grow produce. By 2050, the world's population will
               be more than nine billion requiring an an additional
               agricultural landmass the size of Europe. Experts agree that
               is inpractical and Jonathan Maitland meets some of them who
               want to re-design our cities, as well as a scientist who is
               making beef burgers in a laboratory. He also invites guests
               to a dinner party with insects on the menu - but will anyone
               be brave enough to try them?

Description:   Alex Polizzi, champion of small businesses, returns with a
               new series. This time she is finding fixes for the critical

               looks at exporting. Six years ago it was Paul Walker's dream
               to set up his very own microbrewery in the heart of the
               Devon countryside. But his dream has turned into a
               nightmare; finances are spiralling out of control and family
               life is suffering. A taste test at Sharp's Brewery ruffles
               some feathers and a trip to Paris reveals interesting
               opportunities inherent within brand Britain. Can Alex
               capitalise on the growing popularity of British real ales
               and show a small firm how to shape up in order to ship out?
