Royal Recipes: Season 1, Episode 7

1 - 7: Childhood

Michael Buerk is joined by chef Paul Ainsworth in the kitchens of one of Britain's finest stately homes to celebrate food served to royal children. Paul cooks cottage pie, said to be a favourite of Prince William when he was a boy, and former royal chef Darren McGrady prepares banana flan.

Food historian Dr Annie Gray visits the Swiss Cottage that Victoria and Albert built in the gardens of Osborne House so their nine children could learn to grow food as well as cook it, and there is a look at how the Queen developed a love of kippers as a child in Windsor Castle.
