http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/main/show/796 on the lovely iplayerlist.mibly.com http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00r9ryw With money tight, can the Gastronuts make their cash go further with what they eat? Along the way they find ways to eat using a set of customised bicycles, rummage in some rubbish bins and get thrifty with a whole sheep. http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00r9ryw Fri, 05 Mar 2010 18:06:32 +0000 http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00r3vdj The Gastronuts try to find out if we have to, ought to and should eat meat. They sample life as a battery chicken, get to the heart of a pig's innards, find out how much cow's farts cost, and share a meal with the human race's closest animal relative. http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00r3vdj Fri, 26 Feb 2010 17:06:17 +0000 http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00qzkmp The Gastronuts explore whether food can be art. They meet artists and photographers who use everything from chocolate and cheese to mackerel and macaroons to make art that is a feast for both the eyes and the stomach. http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00qzkmp Wed, 24 Feb 2010 21:07:32 +0000 http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00qsymm In this programme, the Gastronuts are joined by explorer Benedict Allen and athlete Colin Jackson to try and find the world's oddest diet. Nothing is off limits as the Gastronuts find camel, locusts, walrus, reindeer and even brains are on the menu. http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00qsymm Fri, 12 Feb 2010 17:06:12 +0000 http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00qnrgc In this programme, Stefan and the Gastronuts see what it takes to eat like a farmer. They milk a cow by hand, use pig's blood to make breakfast and use food to fuel a car. Will they really embrace the country life and eat a hand reared porker from nose to tail? http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00qnrgc Fri, 05 Feb 2010 18:06:11 +0000 http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00ggj75 In a special episode, the Gastronuts are shown just what it takes to run a restaurant and cook high end cuisine by an award-winning chef. They have just two days to learn a new menu, master the cooking and then serve up the results on time to 20 hungry guests. http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00ggj75 Tue, 26 May 2009 09:07:12 +0000 http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00gghph Stefan and the Gastronuts find out what animals from dogs to lions, and penguins to pythons eat in their diet. They try their hands at eating the same things, sampling the fare of dogs, penguins and the king of the jungle. http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00gghph Mon, 25 May 2009 16:06:37 +0000 http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00g7nlh It's an essential part of human digestion but farting always provokes embarrassment or laughter. So what would happen if we were to try and stop ourselves from parping? The Gastronuts put theory into practice by cooking up the world's fartiest foods, catch their trumps in a swimming pool and see what a whole week's worth of stored up wind would do to the human body. http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00g7nlh Fri, 22 May 2009 09:07:48 +0000 http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00g3121 Some foods seem born to be together: roast beef and gravy, fish n' chips, and chocolate with almost anything. What makes them combine so well, what happens when foods clash, and can we make and break the rules of food? In an effort to find out, Stefan and the Gastronuts eat the world's weirdest combinations, cook with a steam roller and make a strange sandwich. http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00g3121 Thu, 21 May 2009 09:06:25 +0000 http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00fz3gf If you were stuck out in the wilderness with no food, no water, nowhere to sleep and no way of keeping warm, could you survive the night? Stefan and the Gastronuts put their survival skills to the test by making fire, creating shelter, foraging for food and discovering the surprising amount of food on offer in the UK countryside from nettles to pigeon. http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00fz3gf Wed, 20 May 2009 09:06:53 +0000 http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00fv9g7 Food fanatic Stefan Gates and his intrepid Gastronuts go on wild culinary adventures to discover the truth about how we eat, what we eat and where it comes from. We often hear food described as a fuel, but how does that really work? The Gastronuts find out by burning jelly babies, powering a radio with potatoes and cooking lunch at the heart of Britain's biggest compost heap. http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00fv9g7 Tue, 19 May 2009 09:06:36 +0000 http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00fq982 Fish and chips are a national institution, but there is far more to seafood than just cod. Stefan and the Gastronuts try the sea's scariest fish, sample a dish so fresh it is actually raw, and have a go at catching, gutting and cooking their very own fish. http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00fq982 Mon, 18 May 2009 09:06:14 +0000 http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00flydv Cooking can take up so much time and effort that you wonder why we do not just eat our food raw. The Gastronuts find out by preparing a raw dinner from everyday food, they cook in the wild like cavemen and they meet a chef who creates classic dishes from entirely raw ingredients. http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00flydv Fri, 15 May 2009 09:06:22 +0000 http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00fh66l Stefan and the Gastronuts munch their way through bug grub, including chocolate-covered scorpions and pan-fried worms. They find out the health benefits of creepy crawlies and see what happens when they put them on the menu at a school canteen. http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00fh66l Thu, 14 May 2009 12:05:43 +0000 http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00fc7x2 In this episode they investigate foods that have kept soldiers fighting fit down the ages, from gladiators to astronauts. Dishes range from whole roasted pig to weevil-infested biscuits, and army rations that cook themselves without using a cooker or fire. http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00fc7x2 Wed, 13 May 2009 09:06:20 +0000 http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00f68pm The Gastronuts cut up a whole chicken to see what gets thrown away before it even gets to the supermarket shelf. Stefan cooks with rubbish, and everyone winces as they make a typical sausage using parts of a pig they would not normally go anywhere near. http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00f68pm Tue, 12 May 2009 09:06:17 +0000 http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00f3397 In an effort to turn their food dreams into a reality the Gastronuts sample giant biscuits, tiny breakfasts, square fruit and even eat 24 carat gold. http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00f3397 Mon, 11 May 2009 09:06:16 +0000 http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00dx66s Stefan and the Gastronuts chuck out their cookers and whip up some meals using a hairdryer, a dishwasher and a flamethrower. http://iplayerlist.mibly.com/tv/gastronuts/b00dx66s Fri, 08 May 2009 09:07:58 +0000
