THE therapeutic benefits of baking bread were explored by colourful television personality Fred Talbot when he called in to see students at Blackburn College.
Fred was recording a six-minute slot - A Taste of the North - for Granada Tonight, which will be shown next Thursday.
Bakery lecturer Ian Sutherland said: "Fred was shown all the different stages of producing bread.
"It is very therapeutic kneading the soft dough. We told him it was like a mini work-out because of all the effort that is needed."
