Episode 8

Rick delves into the stories of those who worked in Cornwall's mines, from the men who laboured in extreme heat a full hour's journey beneath the earth's surface to the young women known as 'bal maidens', who earned their living breaking rocks with heavy sledgehammers.
In the heart of mining country, he discovers a church with some astonishing 600-year-old wall paintings, which rank amongst Britain's greatest church treasures. And after a merry visit to a maker of botanical spirits, he adds a cheeky nip to his version of the 'platinum pudding' created for the late Queen's platinum jubilee.
