Inside the Factory Specials Episode 8 Keeping Britain Going: Tea Update 2016

Gregg reconnects with the Typhoo tea factory in the Wirral near Liverpool, which he visited back in 2017. The coronavirus crisis caused tea bag sales to soar, and the factory has upped production to produce 109 million tea bags in a week, an increase of 28 million. Throughout the episode, Gregg looks back over his original visit to the factory and the whole production process. First, he helps unload 24 tonnes of dried tea from Kenya and then follows its journey through the 28,500-square-metre factory to make the nation's favourite - good, old-fashioned builder's tea. Meanwhile, Cherry Healey travels to Kenya to see how the tea crop is picked, processed and shipped over 4,000 miles to the UK. She also learns how to master the art of making the best tea bag brew, revealing the top tips for a perfect cuppa. And historian Ruth Goodman explores how tea kept up morale during World War II.
