Nadiya Hussain: A Life Through Food
Nadiya Hussain speaks to Leyla Kazim about her life through food and baking. And Queer Eye's Tan France describes spotting a star in the making in the Bake Off tent.
It's been five years since Nadiya Hussain left the Great British Bake Off tent victorious, inspiring and instilling confidence in wannabe bakers across the UK. In that time, Nadiya has presented eight TV series and a one off documentary and written 11 books. No surprise then that as a child Nadiya was academic, loved exams and says that in everything she's done in her life since, she has always strived to be the best she can possible be.
Leyla Kazim sits down for a conversation with the baker from Luton who has become one of the UK's most beloved TV cooks to ask about her teenage years, her family life and the discrimination she's faced making her way in a majority white food industry. Along with her friend and fellow baker Tan France, she reflects on the significance of her winning the Great British Bake Off all those five years ago.
Presented by Leyla Kazim.
Produced by Clare Salisbury for ±«Óãtv Audio in Bristol.
