EP1 Blackpool Feb 19, 2013

In the first in a new series Tom and Henry head for Blackpool, where for the last 16 years, Len and Babs Curtis have been running the Mermaid Café, a greasy spoon just off the prom.

EP2 London Feb 26, 2013

The brothers are in London, at a café close to the Tower of London, making a beefeater burger, a pea soup with smoked eel and some regal gluten-free chestnut biscuits called queenies.

EP3 Exmouth Mar 05, 2013

Exmouth in Devon has all the charms of the classic English beach resort: sun, sea, sights and two miles of breathtaking beaches. But Tom and Henry are convinced people would prefer more locally inspired flavours.

EP4 Stratford-upon-Avon Mar 12, 2013

At Jean Haslam's Deli Café in Stratford-upon-Avon, the boys try out slow-roasted pulled pork, a beef sandwich and Juliet's fool - a decadent raspberry and chocolate pud.

EP5 Bourton-on-the-Water Mar 19, 2013

Tom and Henry are on home turf, making fish pate, a Tory cobbler and pear lovelies for The Chestnut Tree tearoom in the centre of picturesque Bourton-on-the-Water. Henry tea-smokes a local trout to make a tasty pate. Then there's a Tory cobbler - not only a nod to the political leanings of the area, but the local pheasant - that is topped with miniature dumplings with flecks of green to represent the Cotswolds' rolling hills. For the final recipe, the boys come up with some pear lovelies - little pear cakes with pear slices poached in local pear cider and topped with a cream-cheese frosting.

EP6 York Mar 26, 2013

Tom and Henry make Viking flatbreads, a slow-roasted lamb wrap and toffee apple yorkies for an eaterie in the heart of York. The Cornish Bakery in York is run by Richard and Fiona Parkinson. Tom and Henry want to help the bakery stand out. Their first recipe is toffee apple yorkies - sweet, mini Yorkshire puddings served with caramelised apple, vanilla ice cream and a toffee sauce. Their second dish takes inspiration from one of York's most notorious residents, Guy Fawkes. Gunpowder Lamb is a spicy, slow-roasted lamb wrap served with a fiery carrot, coriander, chilli and red pepper salad. As York is also famous for its connection with Vikings, for their third and final dish, Tom and Henry come up with the idea of Viking flatbreads - a spelt pizza-like base topped with red onion, sorrel, curd cheese and delicate marjoram oil baked in the oven.

EP7 Christmas Dec 17, 2012

The boys don their Christmas jumpers and re-light the wood-fired oven for a very special Yuletide episode featuring a flurry of festive recipes... and not a sprout in sight. Forget stuffing the turkey and icing the cake - Tom and Henry have devised 12 fantastic recipes to celebrate the 12 Days of Christmas in true Baker Brothers style. They show how to cook your own presents as well as serving up classic cocktails with a twist; tasty Christmas crackers you can eat; whisky-smoked salmon; the ultimate Christmas morning breakfast; and a 'medicinal' hangover cure to top all hangover cures. And their alternative to a roast turkey dinner is the most indulgent Christmas bbq ever - luscious lobster with a garlic brandy butter and home-made venison kebabs washed down with spicy mulled cider, all served outside under the stars.

Shilpot7 Isn't cooking FANTASTIC....WOW!TURN UP THE ROCK'N'ROLL!!!!!I think the food they cook looks very good but this show is so exhausting to watch while we're constantly forced to believe that cooking is SOOOO UNBELIEVABLY COOL & FANTABULOUS....all the film cutting, the grinning, the teeth flashing, the loud raunchy music, the slinging the food around and forced ENTHUSIASM wears thin after about three minutes. In fact, it's exhausting.I think these obviously very talented cooks undermine themselves with this rock'n'roll food show. Maybe they can come back and do a cookery show for grown-ups that focuses more on their food than their teeth...and maybe in the meantime they can turn down the 'in yer face' raunchy soundtrack.
kruvczuk This show was great. To temper your expectations, this is a cooking show where two brothers have "pie wars" to see who can bake the best pie, so this is not high drama.That said, my sons (twins are 8, and the youngest is 6) love to watch this show with me. We all line up on the sofa when a new episode is ready. There were only 6 episodes in the first season, so my sincere hope is that they make more.They bake everything in a wood fired brick over, which is very cool. They use imprecise measurements like a glug of oil, a knob of butter (this can be a big knob or a little knob depending on how much you need), and they put salt in every thing they make (go on, watch the whole season you will see). The show is fast paced, and I love it when the sit on the tattered old leather sofa to talk about what they are going to make. OK, last bit, seeing them mix the dough with their hands and then knead the loaf by hand on a big butcher block table makes me want to bake something.
