Centre of the Universe

About Centre of the Universe

*New episodes every Wednesday* Two of Bristol’s most recognisable voices are setting out to prove their hometown is the Centre of the Universe. Comedian, actor and presenter Jayde Adams, known for Strictly Come Dancing, joins forces with chef Josh Eggleton of Great British Menu for a new series exploring what really makes a city great. Across the series, Jayde and Josh dig into the food, culture, people and stories that shape the places we live, building a case for what gives a city its identity and asking a simple question at the heart of it all: what makes somewhere truly great?
