During Debbie’s 50 plus years in showbiz, she’s achieved many things, not least becoming the first female member of the magic circle in the 90s. But during Debbie’s stay at the B&B, she experiences a number of firsts, including smoking fish and glass blowing with an unusual ingredient.

Her first stop on her adventure is the local smokehouse, whose owner Ruairidh Morrison has mastered the art of hot and cold smoking local salmon to perfection. Ruairidh has also experimented with smoked black pepper, which adds a kick to the B&B dessert.

Debbie found a love of the kitchen while cooking for her late husband Paul Daniels, so she fits right at home with chef Alex in the B&B kitchen. Here, they whip up a seafood feast and a sweet treat incorporating the locally smoked black pepper.
