BBC Four

21:00hrs Today

Ever since the early 1960s, Rick Stein has been in love with the blues and years later he is fascinated by the dishes ingrained in its lyrics - fried chicken and turnip greens, catfish and black-eyed peas, and the rest. In this film, Rick pays homage to the musicians who created this music and to the great dishes of the Mississippi Delta that go hand in hand with the blues.

    I watched the Rick Stein prog last night ...interesting stuff....I thought the diddley-bow shed was impressive..it was a wooden shed with a diddley-bow fixed to a panel on the outside wall...the guy was sat on the porch playing it with a slide and getting acoustics from the whole shed...Brilliant!!!

    Yep, this was mentioned earlier on the main 'Brits Are Coming' thread - there was a suggestion that the guy with the CBG in the trailer might be Bill Abel...guess we'll soon find out.
