Arnold couple bid to become Aldi's 'Next Big Thing' on new TV series

Anyone who has ever tasted one of Harrison & Griffiths' cakes knows how good they are... including the Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton, and son George, who once visited their stall at a food and drink show. Now the couple behind the mouth-watering treats are hoping to take it up a level by getting them onto the shelves of one of the UK's biggest supermarkets.

Arnold couple Paulette Griffiths and Colin Harrison are bidding to become Aldi's Next Big Thing. The Channel 4 TV series is giving small-scale food producers the chance to pitch their ideas for the chance of a lifetime. The duo will feature in the episode on Thursday October 27 in the hope of winning the massive contract to supply all Aldi stores in the UK.

Each week six producers pitch head-to-head. Two are chosen as finalists with just one winning the opportunity to upscale production with a potentially life-changing level of investment. The series kicked off last week with the dinner-time category.
