River Cottage Forever Episode 1 of 8

It’s February and while Hugh has survived the winter there’s precious little to eat at River Cottage. But thinking of the future he gets busy building “chickenopolis” – a complex of high-rise chicken accommodation to house the poultry for his latest money-making scheme: to breed the ultimate roast chicken. Poultry-guru Richard Hicks calls round with Hugh’s breeding stock and over pancakes in the cottage they wager the cost of the birds on their performance in the local pancake race. Richard wins by a whisker.
