GOLDIE: THE FULL ENGLISH BREAKFAST
Goldie is the Godfather of drum 'n' bass.
He’s played Bond villains, dated supermodels and won global acclaim for his graffiti art, but not many people know that he starts every day with a full English breakfast – cooked by his Kenyan manservant, Jimmy.
In a fun personal quest, Goldie visits a farm for the first time in his life and comes face to face with the pigs and chickens that provide his staple meal.
He also meets fellow devotees of the great British fry-up and explores his own attachment to a meal that was one of the few symbols of stability and comfort during a chaotic childhood – Goldie was put into care at the age of four and grew up in a succession of care homes and with foster parents.
