The first episode of Food Inspectors (Bootleg Booze) aired on BBC1 on Wednesday 29th February at 19:30. Programme information below:
Matt Allwright investigates the countrywide problem of bootleg booze. Would you be able to spot a fake bottle of plonk, or vodka with dangerously high levels of industrial alcohol? And did you know the majority of food poisoning happens at home?
Chris Hollins teams up with food inspector Ben Milligan and drops in on an unsuspecting family at mealtime. Are they cooking clean or risking their health with bad food hygiene?
Also, the team take on the owner of an Indian restaurant who thinks he knows best, and Chris dishes the dirt on one of the most evil types of bacteria around.
Episode 2 (Food Fraud) will air on 7th March. Programme information below:
Matt is down on the farm where the animal health team are checking that the cows are free from tuberculousis, a disease that can be transmitted to humans in both milk and meat. Meanwhile, Chris and our own food inspector Ben Milligan are surprise guests at a Hollywood party in High Wycombe, where the preparations come under the spotlight. Matt and Chris also visit a roadside cafe in Wolverhampton where the owner doesn’t have a good word to say about the inspectors – but it turns out they have a good reason for concern.
