"After 10 days, I went back to London and said I've met a girl... I'm moving to Australia."
A classically trained chef at the top of his game in the UK, Bake Off Australia's Darren Purchese had low expectations for his chance visit to Brisbane in 2004. He didn't expect to fall in love with Australian food – and an Australian girl, fellow chef Cath Caringbold.
Join Darren and Cath as they step out of the kitchen and into the bathroom. On top of their dramatic meeting story and plenty of mouth-watering food chat, the couple talk working and spending all their time together, the difference between English and Australian scones, making tea for the queen, and how, for these chefs, there is no secret sauce... except maybe Darren's chilli crisp.
