A new British TV series takes the idea of the camper van tour of Britain and adds a new lemon twist – two chefs on a fish-cooking tour of Britain.

Young’s Seafood is funding the new prime time series about fish and how to cook it on one of Britain’s digital TV channels.

“Mitch and Matt’s Big Fish” is planned to TX on the UKTV Food channel and features Mitchell Tonks, British fishmonger and restaurateur. Tonks, founder of Fishworks restaurant chain, will partner rugby player and ‘Masterchef’ winner, Matt Dawson. The pair travel the country in a beaten up camper van on a fish fuelled roadtrip – enjoying all kinds of seafood and finding out more about responsible fishing

As a break from the banter of two lads on a roadtrip, the programme will see the pair immerse themselves in the landscape, seascape and people that make up Britain’s fishing communities.
