A Northumbrian potato farmer walks into a fish and chip shop... It's not the start of a joke, but the start of a business venture. Farmer Mark Robson wanted to know where the shop got their potatoes from - and it turns out they came from Egypt! That led to Mark setting up a new business processing the potatoes he grew himself into chips and other chopped spuds to sell to restaurants in the area. Now, Mark's two sons are in the process of taking on the farm and the potato processing business. In this programme Caz Graham meets Will and Alastair Robson and learns about the delicate art of growing potatoes, climbs to the top of the potato storehouse, and finds out how a "hydro-cutter" works to produce the perfect chip. Presented by Caz Graham Produced by Heather Simons
