The Golden Spurtle
The sleepy Highlands community of Carrbridge, home to numerous amiable eccentrics, comes alive each year when the Porridge Committee begins their preparations. Then the contestants arrive, including reigning champ Lisa and seven-time finalist Nick, a health food aficionado, along with contenders from Canada, the Netherlands and Zimbabwe – and Australian newbie Toby (a taco chef!). The judges pick up their spoons… the oatmeal battle is on. Director Constantine Costi – also an acclaimed theatre librettist and director, most recently bedazzling audiences with Siegfried and Roy: The Unauthorised Opera – captures the charm and spunk of this Highlands competition with warmth, respect and lashings of humour.
Special Guest: World Porridge Making Championship Contender Toby Wilson
