Robson Green celebrates the most 'classic North East dish' in BBC series

Robson Green's BBC series Weekend Escapes is continuing to treat North East viewers by showing off the beauty of the region - and a recent episode saw the actor celebrate a favourite local delicacy.

The tenth episode of the series, which is available in its entirety on BBC iPlayer, saw Robson head to Hexham and explore the idyllic Northumberland countryside with his uncle Matheson. And it was definitely one for the Geordies as the pair set about making one of the North East's most classic dishes: the stottie.
