Podcasts about Tatton

Sheila Dillon heads out on the highway to investigate the world of food at motorway service stations. Historically they have been a place viewed as a functional stop-off for a "tea and a pee" and often maligned for the quality of their food. Motorway services enthusiast Dr David Lawrence from Kingston University talks through a short history of the Great British service station from Watford Gap and Newport Pagnell in 1959 through to present day.AA President Edmund King briefs Sheila on how his membership views motorway service food and Robin Markwell reports on the opinions of lorry drivers from Chippenham Pit Stop on the M4 in Wiltshire where more healthy eating options are now appearing on the menu. Dan Sutton from Roadchef - one of the largest motorway service operators - also gives his thoughts on what the British motorist is looking for when wanting to be fed on the motorway and argues that familiarity of brands is key.Sheila takes a trip to Tebay Services on the M6 in Cumbria to understand a different way of providing motorway service food. She meets the Dunnings family who have since opened services at Gloucester, Cairns Lodge in Lanarkshire and will soon open another at Tatton in Cheshire. Their ethos includes an emphasis on locally sourced, homecooked food. Sheila meets with their coffee and bread suppliers as well as touring their farm to understand how service areas might also be an engine for the local economy.Produced by Robin Markwell in Bristol for BBC Audio.

In this week's EMQs George Osborne and Ed Balls take on a question from Jeremy Hunt who asks if chancellors are under pressure to push through new reform as soon as they are in office. Ed and George bring their experience to the query. Following the Pope's letter on the topic of AI, one listener asks for Ed and George's reaction to the papal intervention. In the Pope's encyclical, he asks if AI is a force for good or bad. George and Ed applaud Pope Leo's early engagement into the topic and, like the Pope, think human dignity needs to be at the heart of all new technological advancements. MP, Minister and mountain rescue volunteer Josh MacAlister asks a question that takes George back to his constituency in Tatton and prompts Ed to share his knowledge and his appreciation for rhubarb. Also a query from Australia triggers a debate on politicians shaping policy to benefit their loved one. Plus there's confirmation of what's NOT going to be on the setlist at the upcoming Centrist Dad's gig at the Water Rats in London.We love hearing from you, so please don't forget to send all your EMQs to questions@politicalcurrency and make sure to include a voice note of your question or send a question to our social media handles:

Sacramento, California's LOOSE CHOIR bend the trends of indie/alt-rock with punchy punk flourishes and moody folk earholes, the result of which is a blast of "newstalgia" and new noise in equal measure. Formed in 2022 by Rae Boys (vocals), Tatton White (guitar, bass) and Noah G. Prado (drums), the band took their time fleshing out the songs that comprise Shy Side, their debut full-length. The patience paid off, as Loose Choir's collaborative strengths yielded a formidable collection of arresting tracks brimming with poise and urgency.  Thriving in the aural limbo between alt-folk and the often urgent sonic real estate of guitar-forward mid-'00s underground rock, Loose Choir vacillates its dynamism to startling results. Boys' affecting vocals slice like sunrise over a rough sea; the tandem of Prado and White's well-rounded chemistry—having performed for years in Northern California punk band The Red Robot—pushes and pulls the songs' bones apart to lay bare their emotive underbellies.  Thanks for listening!!!

Welcome to the largest flower show in the North of England; RHS Flower Show Tatton Park! This show is all about exploring the infinite possibilities of your back garden – whether you have an acre of land, or simply a patio or windowsill – Tatton really celebrates spaces of all shapes and sizes. We visit Leon Davis' UnPave the Way garden to find out how to transform dull paved driveways into inviting spaces which are full of clever take-home ideas designed to ‘slow the flow' of rainwater. We also hear from some of the exceptional growers who have filled the floral marquee to the rafters with botanical wonders, and finally Tom Saunders – designer of the Orchid terrace garden – highlights some of the threats facing one of the most diverse and widespread flowering plants on earth.   Presenters: Jenny Laville, Gareth Richards   Contributors: Leon Davis Colin Hickman (Hoyland Plant Centre) John Amand (Jacques Amand Limited) Luke Whiting (D'Arcy & Everest) Tom Saunders   Other links: RHS Flower Show Tatton Park Tickets Ferns & Carnivorous Plants Show Unpave the way garden North West Regional Flood and Coastal Committee: Unpave the Way project Orchid terrace garden Inside Tatton's Floral Marquee Long Borders The Kaleidoscope Ginnel Garden The Woodland Trust: 49% Garden

In a Wonderbread world, what would happen if we returned to the old ways? Today's guests share the joys and meaning of slow, mindful, healthy sourdough baking.

Ed and Natasha Tatton have been building an outstanding, 100% plant based bakery in Whistler, BC for several years, and have just launched a stellar cookbook from the bakery.  The book is both approachable and very detailed, explaining the intricacies and advantages of vegan baking while bringing Ed's incredible flavour combinations to each recipe.  In this Episode, Mark talks with Natasha and Ed to learn about what's been happening at Ed's Bred since Ed was on the show in 2021, the challenges of writing a book and testing recipes while keeping the business running, and why plant based baking is no longer just a fringe 'alternative' option.

Ed and Natasha Tatton are the husband/wife duo of BReD, the popular vegan bakery + cafe in Whistler, BC. They're about to release their first book; BReD: Sourdough Loaves, Small Breads, and Other Plant-Based Baking (available November 2023), which will add to their already loyal following at the bakery as well as the hundreds of thousands of people who tune-in to their social media to watch Ed shaping dough to upbeat tunes. In this episode we learn about their journey from vegetarian to plant-based and how (for Ed), it reignited a passion for cooking. Natasha shares her theory for vegan options in restaurants and how they wow guests at their bakery day in and day out. We also throw them in the hot seat with questions from some of the world's most renowned chefs.There's more to this kind and talented couple than their micro-bakery. Ed and Natasha have baked-in (pun intended) social impact into the very core of their business operations. They're not just baking delicious breads and treats; they're also making a difference with initiatives like their work with Trees for the Future.
