Bellingham is so well-known for her appearance in Calendar Girls that apparently there’s always someone who expects her to turn up to work wearing nothing but buns.

Today she continues her foodie UK camper van tour in Cornwall, home of the Gweek Silver Band Gala Week, which raises money for the band by, among other things, auctioning the first slices of a hog roast. They change hands for more than you’d think. She also visits a seal sanctuary and meets some artists in pretty Porthleven before taking on today’s culinary challenge: to make a fish pie to thank her hosts at Gweek.
