20. Shorts: Onion Johnnies

0.0Nov 19, 2011 · 60 min

Nick Crane joins the Onion Johnnies. For nearly 200 years the Onion Johnnies have pedalled their produce around Britain, giving us our stereotypical image of a Frenchman, complete with stripy t-shirt, beret and bicycle laden with onions. Nick finds out what's so special about their onions and meets one of the Johnnies who married a Geordie girl.
