Stephen and Felim’s aversion to anything remotely healthy is called out by no-nonsense chef Brian McCann, who is convinced his seasonal platter will win them over.

Stephen is off to Fermanagh to meet Felim, a second-hand car salesman, who at 28 stone is dangerously out of control with his weight. Felim admits to being addicted to junk food and his rapidly increasing weight over the past five years is putting a considerable strain on his relationship with fiancé Luke. Living in a caravan while they build their dream home and working long hours doesn’t help, but Felim knows that the time has come to change the relationship he has with food or he might lose the relationship with the person he holds dear. What can Stephen do to help Felim on his road to a better diet?

Chef Brian McCann is passionate about healthy cooking. For 30 years, he has championed local, seasonal produce cooked from scratch. His choice of dishes for Felim has been meticulously thought through - easy to cook, gorgeous to look at, delicious to taste. At times, the lack of attention from his ‘students’, coupled with their lack of culinary curiosity, tests Brian’s patience to its limits. As the cookery lesson unfolds, the respect for the chef grows, so much so that Stephen suddenly decides to share with Brian a grubby secret that demonstrates just how shameful his eating has become.
