Do you love Italian food? Love visiting Italy? Five years ago Vicky Bennison was so captivated by the home cooking of 'old school' Italian grandmothers that she started the YouTube channel 'PASTA GRANNIES' and now she's just released the cookbook!

We talk with Vicky live from her home in London about the making of this one of a kind cookbook.
