Join Ainsley in the kitchen as he is inspired by the great retro dishes of the past. He starts his Forgotten Classics menu with a sumptuous minced beef, potato and onion pie served with buttery greens. Then, TV presenter and radio DJ Vick Hope joins Ainsley to introduce him to a spicy prawn cocktail… and a rumba round the kitchen.

Long-time friend Brian Turner will be reminding us why faggots deserve a come-back, and Ainsley puts a fresh spin on the coronation chicken, followed by a very tempting queen of puddings. 

Ainsley Harriott puts his own twist on the Great British teatime, serving up black forest brownies with kirsch cream, cheesy chive and bacon muffins and savoury afternoon tea tartlets. He is joined in the kitchen by John Partridge, who bakes some sausage rolls, and Candice Brown, who prepares gin and tonic drizzle cake and rocky road cookies.
