Ben visits the so-called "Vegas of the North" to learn how to make Blackpool Rock, but is shocked to find out that the family seaside town has had a loss of innocence. Then, down the coast in Liverpool, he pays the price for discovering a craft beer revolution in a city that will never forget its roots.

    It seems silly now, but the rare gift of a sweet treat was quite the thrill in much of the world. I'm 57 and of poor family in the USA and was delighted with simple candies as a child, on holidays. I think there is a clip up of one of the only places left in the USA which makes ribbon candies, which thrilled me no end as a girl. The machine for that is complex and the labor heavy. I was delighted also with simple, crude rock candy on a string. Looks as though a basic stick of rock is pretty practical.

    Making that "rock" (it sounds like a drug to me, sorry) seems super difficult and I love the effort put into it. Nice to see people producing something like that they can be proud of. Plus...the owner (or whatever she was) was pretty easy on the eyes. And I love that Blackpool accent on women, especially the "os" and "us". Super cute.
