3. Both sides of the tracks (Image 3 of 5)

Savannah is one of America's oldest cities and is famous for its wealth. Georgia's first British settlement is proud of its culinary traditions and the ladies who lunch make daily appointments for afternoon tea and cakes.

Susan Mason, grande dame of cakes and desserts and the must have chef at Savannah's top social occasions, invites Jamie for a brew, but she won't be drawn on the recession.
"No politics over cocktails!" chirps the Southern belle.

Jamie will be spending the night on the other side of the tracks, parking up in one of the area's poorest trailer parks but, when talk turns to politics here, a shocked Jamie discovers it's not just attitudes to food that have stayed the same since the dark days of slavery.

Hi JohnHarris - same thing happened to me. You can watch the end yourself on 4OD (link on right of page). After loading, move scroll bar to about 45 minute point - you'll have to wait through a couple more adverts, then it'll carry on from just before the competition results.

Georgia Programme was fantastic!!! Not just because of their food and the BBQ, but we could feel a bit of their reality, racism and how their live through out all the difficulties.

What another ace programme tonight Jamie! Looked like you enjoyed the BBQ comp.... just one comment that you made that you may be pleased to know isn't completely accurate. You said that there wasn't anything like this in the UK... BUT there is... The British BBQ Society has a regional comps in the UK and has a team currently competing in The American Royal, of which my husband is a member. Despite calling myself a BBQ widow, I must admit that I am slightly green eyed and can just imagine the atmosphere of a comp with 350 teams entered, and seeing the Pig Fest I just feel excited for the team. As well as cooking up some lovely food there is a real sense of community within the Society, where my family have met some true friends for life. Thanks for taking the time to read, Claire
