Citizen TV channel WORLDbytes has launched a new series of discussion shows, TV Dinners, where invited experts get their teeth into the big issues of the day – and a three-course meal – with a group of WORLDbytes volunteers.

In the first of the series, spiked‘s deputy editor Rob Lyons, author of Panic on a Plate: How Society Developed an Eating Disorder, discusses food fears, nannying government policies and crusading celebrity chefs.
