This isn’t just an episode — it’s a full-on foodie adventure. Join Donald as he takes you on a mouthwatering 20-minute tour of the Sturminster Newton Cheese Festival, exploring the sights, smells, and tastes that make this Dorset’s cheesiest weekend of the year.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• The incredible cheese producers bringing everything from tangy Dorset Blue Vinney to creamy Bath Soft, traditional Keen’s Cheddar to the iconic Godminster waxed wheel.
  

• A world of food and drink makers — artisan fudge, gooey brownies, fiery chilli sauces, small-batch gins, sparkling English wines, ciders, cordials, and more.
  

• The sizzling magic of our outside caterers — wood-fired pizzas, lamb burgers, raclette rivers, pancakes, ice cream, and festival street-food that will have you queueing with a smile

  
  

  Whether you’re a cheese purist, a sweet-toothed snacker, or a fan of something stronger in your glass, this episode will leave you hungry — and maybe just a little thirsty.

The Sturminster Newton Cheese Festival is more than an event — it’s a celebration of local flavours, community spirit, and the joy of sharing food together. Tickets are just £9 a day (with under-16s free with an adult ticket holder and free carers’ tickets available).
