Mary's Foolproof Dinners

Comedian Alan Carr loves classic home-cooked comfort food, but he doesn't know where to begin making it, relying instead on takeaways. Determined to learn how to cook before his 50th birthday, he asks Mary for help.

Mary Berry catches up with her friend Claudia Winkleman to share simple recipes perfect for a lazy weekend. They take a stroll to a foodie treasure trove, and Mary has a surprise in store.

Wildlife cameraman and presenter Hamza Yassin is a cautious cook who knows more about preparing food for animals than humans, so he's looking for some fuss-free dishes to expand his culinary horizons.

Mary is helping famous friends old and new with inspiring recipes that guarantee success.

Mary comes armed with a sumptuous selection of foolproof dishes. Her celebration menu includes lemongrass crab cakes, duck breast with brandy sauce, coq au vin pie, langoustine paella, and her floating islands with caramel.

Mary invites star of `The Repair Shop' and antique furniture restorer Will Kirk to join her for some cooking in the great outdoors. Will has just moved house, and for the first time has his own garden. He is planning plenty of alfresco cooking.
