at the cake international in birmingham england. this year some 1300 bakers professionals and amateurs are here to present their creations. some of these artworks it's hard to tell but they are in fact cakes. such as this life size effigy of a character from the t.v. series killing eve. everything for me is seen in so so incredible. is you know committed. by steve realizing in the industry how you can improve things you can do things that other people do that just really give you strong ideas. then kolins own entry to the chimpanzee life size at one meter high in 80 kilos but this one is edible ben put 4 days of work into it. the biggest challenge doing this
11:33 am
was actually trying to get the stunts how they see it is so so weird so strange then i thought when i started it and it's a cross reference so many different photos of where that happens go how their legs sort of fold into each other. in the studio in north wales to form the chimpanzee he stuck several layers of pastry together and then cut them into shape . the cake are the studied part in graphic design his fascination with baking only developed later on. to learn how to my was a simple as ring you mom. and scientology in my genuinely how it started when i wanted to make the 1st one i had not the foggiest could. he modeled the schools bone structure and fudge. he also used the multiple sugar paste to sculpt the facial features as well.

11:35 am
at this stage i know it's going in the right direction but there's a lot more to do there's the whole body the a lot more finicky detail the teeth the tongue so there's a long process ahead but i'm really happy with. failed the completed work to some 20000 k. clubbers birmingham but he's already got ideas for new projects. one of the main things i want to get around to doing is doing a walk in you know the house of interactive you can walk in it and sit in it live in it you know i mean for a few minutes and yet you can. ben cohen will need some fairly original ideas to stand out among the legions of imaginative cake bakers. one cake is more off the wall than the next but the all it good enough to.

do you think of share this thing as immediately come to mind these people from t. but traditionally work as porters but here in europe we have a few remaining now porters to take carry tons of food to drinks and material up to the mount shelters in the slovakian tetra national park without destroying the courage of skill the mount largest could not exist and twice a year the european sharpest meet for a cup of titian to find out who is quickest at carrying heavy loads to the top. 50 sherpas set off on a race each carrying 60 kilos of supplies on their backs to the high touch of mountains of slovakia. for many hikers the route would be too hazardous even without the extra weight on their backs. but time is the main challenge sherpas like stefan back are faced as they navigate the 6 kilometers of
11:37 am
rocky path to the finish. there is nothing special and here the whole thing's more a matter of the mind it's over but there are some difficult moments overcome get tough they're going to get over it but that's where the shepherds pride comes into it you have to get the job done and it's obvious you've got a couple. normally stefan back or would make the climb to the lodge alone he makes up to 3 trips a day. to. base camp and study smoke of it he packs all the supplies onto his back frame that people will need high in the mountains. he can heave up to 100 kilos onto his shoulders. look i will see david i'm nobody the strength comes from inside from the mind but mainly
11:38 am
from the hot. in summer as in winter the sherpas keep the lodges of the high touch are supplied and open to serve hikers and 19 years the region's flora and fauna are unique in europe. so i was at everest is so thoughtful just gives a strength about a bit but it's great to be out all day makes around this part of nature. or you can't do this job if you don't love nature there are what we do involves a sense of all ecological responsibility only because we carry the supplies up to the lodges can they be maintained without road so cable cars or even helicopters. sometimes when the lodges are short handed it's part of the sherpas job to stay and help out so the largest depend on them in more ways than one to be able to stay open. in

among them cover the $700.00 metre climb to the brothers lodge at some 2000 metres elevation and about one hour and 20 minutes. right at the finish line almost half an hour later but all of them are satisfied. to get them or this is simply my life not just a way for me to earn money. is just incredibly fun so. it's hell for 2 hours but it's all the more fun afterwards about rembrandt it was that i thought the great thing about this competition is that we only in our daily routine we have no time to communicate through out the whole year we never get to meet up like we do here it's super diffuse out of the whole because. i suppose. after the winner is awarded they finally have time to party. but the very next morning the sherpas of the high touches their loads onto their facts and set
11:41 am
out once again to keep the largest supplied with everything they need to. it's starting to get cold in many pods of europe but on the lucia in the south of spain it's the mostly sunny and mild the region is not very far from north africa and there are many remnants of the time when the muslim invaders from north africa rule their one of their strongholds was the city of nada and that is where my colleague maggie least spent a perfect week at. yours . or la and welcome to my perfect weekend in grand isle. a good way to get an overview of the city in southern spain is from the middle and or decide you can last square it also provides the finest you are not his most famous landmark the. my 1st stop
