What's the story?
Corner Shop Cook-Off.
Great! I love my scran. The lowdown, please.
Foodie Clare Grogan and MasterChef: The Professionals winner Gary Maclean want to show that last-minute convenience shopping doesn't need to equate to lacklustre cuisine.
Excellent. Send them right round.
It's a TV series, not Meals on Wheels.
Pity. I'll just order a takeaway, then. Again.
Hang on. Clare and Gary may have some food for thought.

A culinary pun? I thought better of you.
You ain't got muffin on me. I value our friend chip. Lettuce do our best.
Please stop.
Sorry. I'm fondue you. Corner Shop Cook-Off, which begins on BBC Scotland this Wednesday at 8pm, sees our dynamic duo visit a different corner shop over six weeks to scour the shelves for ingredients and inspiration.
Then what happens?
Gary goes head-to-head with a different guest chef in each episode. They have only £15 apiece to create their three best courses. The chefs also have the chance to use a mystery ingredient chosen by the shop owners which could end up being a help or a hindrance.

What mystery ingredients would you throw in?
Durian. Squid ink. The juice of a freshly squeezed sock.
Challenge accepted.
I can't wait to see what you rustle up.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
