Episode 2
Mary Berry returns to school to celebrate her light, easy and delicious cooking. From a simple version of the classic kedgeree and some delightful breakfast drop scones, to a moreish chicken, avocado and bacon salad and deliciously easy beef burgers. Mary takes her inspiration from a visit to a ground-breaking primary school in South London that has built a secret garden where students are taught how to grow vegetables and look after a brood of chickens. It doesn't stop there as Mary joins two enthusiastic and skilful year 5 pupils in the teaching kitchen to make something deliciously fresh for their school lunch.

Episode 3

Mary makes her way through vegetable rows and orchards, ending with her own inspired version of tarte tatin. To further explore the green fields she takes a step back in time to journey on one of the Watercress Line's 19th-century steam trains, where she leaves the stove to help fire up the 300-tonne engine.

As the home cook and Michelin-starred chef cook alongside each other it is obvious how inspired they both are by the coast and a shared love of simple, fresh, local food cooked well.

Mary unleashes some of her classic favourites that have moved in and out of fashion, but still have a much-loved stronghold. Her take on a classic prawn cocktail, a warming deep rich onion soup and a divine banoffee pie are too enticing not to try out at home.Mary also prepares a leek and onion quiche to add to her ploughman's lunch, and who better to eat it with than traditional farmer Robert Sampson, who insists they do a bit of ploughing with his horse-drawn ploughs before sitting down to enjoy it.
