    2. Martin Briscoe
    3. Just watching this programme on BBC4, it is repeated later tonight and sure it will be on again. The section on Bolton was about tripe, UCP etc. TRAVEL: The North on a Plate On: BBC 4 (Freeview) Date: Friday 15th July 2011 (starting in 4 hours and 9 minutes) Time: 01:45 to 02:45 (1 hour long) Paris-based cultural historian Andrew Hussey follows his success with France on a Plate by travelling back to his homeland, the north west of England, in search of its lost food culture. He brings with him the French idea of terroir - a belief that a food from a particular area is rendered unique though a particular set of local circumstances including culture and landscape. Andrew asks if this highbrow foodie term can be applied to common northern grub such as a Blackpool chip or a Wigan pie.
