A five-week series following culinary couple John Torode and Lisa Faulkner on a road trip in Western Australia is to appear on ITV.

‘John and Lisa’s Food Trip Down Under’ starts on Saturday at 11.40am, sponsored by Trailfinders and supported by Qatar Airways.

The travel show follows the couple as they drive an electric vehicle for 500 miles along the coast.

The couple flew to Perth to start their journey on the city’s Swan River with a stop on Rottnest Island before exploring the Margaret River region.

They met chefs, winemakers and entrepreneurs in search of the best local food and wine.
