The East

Season 1 Episode 1 of 3

Gregg Wallace, Philippa Forrester and James Manning celebrate British farming as they visit farms to focus on the 2015 harvest, beginning with the east of the UK. Gregg helps with the winter sugar beet harvest and finds out how much sugar is produced from our home soil, while Philippa samples chillies that are so hot they require a health warning. Plus, James visits a futuristic lettuce farm controlled by robots to see a cutting edge drilling machine that plants seedlings faster than the human eye can see

Harvest airs on BBC Two Northern Ireland at 4:15 PM, Wednesday 2 October. (Subtitles, repeat.)
