Jodie Whittaker surprised with our tagliatelle with asparagus, peas, shallots & capers

We also enlist her as our first Dish sommelier. Jodie Whittaker is an English actor known for her roles in Broadchurch, Doctor Who, Frauds and Toxic Town. Jodie, who was born in West Yorkshire but now lives in London, arrives at Dish with the perfect mindset; hungry and up for trying anything. So, a menu full of surprises it is, as we sit down to chat about Jodie’s latest project: Dear England. The TV series is an adaptation of the hugely successful play that looks at Gareth Southgate’s time as England manager. We start things with a Hugo spritz, while learning about Jodie’s favourite cuisines and the restaurant trip that brought her to tears... in a good way. Angela then serves a bowl of tagliatelle with asparagus, peas, shallots & capers, a Diana Henry recipe that Jodie could cook at home... but probably won’t. The wine pairing is Jodie’s choice as she opts for the Loved & Found Carricante. The surprises don’t stop there, as Angela has also prepared a lemon thyme, honey & polenta cake, hitting the sweet spot perfectly. Jodie’s a joy to hang with as we discover the unique sandwiches she had as a child, the valuable support of her parents as she set about a career in acting, and the little things that make a difference for her while on a TV set. The wines featured in Jodie’s wine tasting also included No.1 Coteaux d'Aix en Provence Rosé Provence and the Loved & Found Grolleau Gris. You can watch the first two episodes of Dear England on BBC iPlayer now with the series’ final parts broadcasting on May 30 and 31. You can watch full episodes of Dish on YouTube and on Spotify.

At Waitrose, you know you're a food lover when the summer desserts you take to the park have juicier plot twists- Mm ... than your true crime book. Make it a summer to remember with our dreamy range of number one summer desserts, like the Alphonso mango dessert with a realistic crunchy shell [graphic pops] filled with creamy mango mousse and zingy passion fruit curd in every bite. And the rich Madagascan vanilla ice cream rippled with tangy blackcurrant.
