This week, Emily and Raymond are taking a walk in Battersea Park with the legendary fashion designer Amanda Wakeley and her Labrador Luna (who was sporting a very stylish red bandana!)

Amanda tells us about her happy and chaotic childhood with a succession of Labs and Jack Russells and her family in Cheshire. We find out what life was like for Amanda at Cheltenham Ladies’ College and how making clothes in the school holidays led her to creating her own label and pioneering her clean, glam and wearable style.

We highly recommend you listen to Amanda’s podcast Style DNA - where she speaks to extraordinary people about their personal styles and the psychology behind the clothes they wear. It's available on all podcast platforms!

We’re halfway through our walk with the brilliant Candice Brown as well as her three dogs Albus, Severus and Sibyl!

Candice tells us more about her pre-Bake Off life working as a secondary school teacher in a special educational needs department and how she is driven by a strong sense of injustice.

We also get a peek into the intensive process of getting on the Bake Off - and the positives and negatives that followed on from starring on that show.

We highly recommend you take a visit to The Green Man in Eversholt - for a truly dog-friendly pub and the best bacon butty on earth as well as an amazing menu of fresh, local and seasonal food.

Candice’s books Happy Cooking and Comfort are available now. You can buy your copy here!

We’re on a delightful country walk this week with the legendary Great British Bake Off winner Candice Brown!

Candice has three dogs - Albus, Severus and Sibyl, and there are a plethora of other dogs in the Brown family! It’s clear Candice has a real passion for her dogs - and she tells us the story behind how she came to rescue each of them.

After growing up in pubs run by her parents - Candice has gone on to run her own pub! It's called The Green Man in Eversholt and it’s absolute dog (and human) heaven! Candice tells us all about how her childhood gave her such a strong family bond and also gave her a passion for food.

She also tells us how food helps her to deal with ADHD - and how it might have helped her to win Bake Off!
