[MUSIC PLAYING] Hello. I'm Jamie. This is Mike. Today, the biggest food
challenge we've ever attempted. And if at any point this
video makes you hungry, give it a like and help
us spread the word. I had a big dinner last
night, and I now regret it. I'm not very hungry. [MUSIC PLAYING] Today we embark on our
biggest food challenge yet. You've heard of the
London Marathon. Well, this is the
London Food Marathon. You got fresh,
succulent, crunchy fish. Tender beef. Juicy. Makes the plate almost soggy,
but in a really, really good way. We've got to eat 26.2 dishes-- --and we only have 24 hours. And we're not talking
just any old rubbish. These have to be
London's top dishes. Ooh-ha! Ooh! Yes! Oh! [LAUGHING] Muah. We've got a plan, some
amazing locations, some amazing food
lined up, but do we have the endurance,
patience, speed, luck, and most importantly,
the stomach to make it? This is the worst
idea I've ever had. I think if I run, mate, it's
going to come out both ends. This has gone
downhill so quickly. A good game, though, isn't it? No, it's not. [LAUGHTER] What? Time check, 8 o'clock. First stop, St.
John Bread and Wine, for arguably the best
bacon sandwich in London. St. John is a dining
room, winery, and bakery. It's simple, but it's perfect. How are we starting
the marathon? Like, are we all going big? I think a half bacon sandwich
each is probably a good start. It is exactly 8:22. Are we ready? Three, two, one, eat. [BLOWHORN] No better way to kick this off. That is such a good
bacon sandwich. Every bit of that is bang on. Not many places you can
[INAUDIBLE] for bacon sandwich. Bacon, bread, butter. Pass [INAUDIBLE]. You're going to regret that. What, I'm hungry now. There's nothing left of it. You're insane. What, remember this. One down, 25.2 to go. I'm feeling quite sleepy. [LAUGHING] They say a great
Spanish restaurant can be defined by its croquettes. José Pizarro is a critically
acclaimed Spanish chef who nearly became a dentist instead. Thank goodness he didn't. So it's just past 9:00. And we're having
some white wine. Dish two, crispy croquetas
with an oozy bechamel and cod center. Oh, yes. They're so beautifully crisp
on the outside and oozy in the middle. Yeah, that is unbelievable. I want another one,
but I know I shouldn't. Well, you should have that one. No, don't do that. The fish almost just lends
flavor to the bechamel. It's really clean. So what's next? Cinnamon buns. Jamie always banged on
about these cinnamon buns being the best he'd ever had. So obviously, we had the dish
three over to him to lead. Where's it gone? [LAUGHING] What's going on? Hey, [INAUDIBLE] What's even better is not
either Jamie organize us for us to get some
cinnamon buns. But there's also nice for
some press to turn up. Oh, great. A reporter from
the Metro newspaper has arrived to taste
these cinnamon buns. [LAUGHING] Jamie has to find a back up. Find a back up. I'll find a back up. I'll find us a back up. It's fine. [BUZZING] Next is Borough Market, one of
my favorite places in London. It's got loads of food to eat. And that's what
we're going to do. We did a butchery class here. And it was amazing. And they also do great pies. All right, let's eat it. Get it in your face. Forget flavor. Size-wise, this is
the smallest pork pie you should be looking for. Pork pies were made to be
eaten on the back of a horse, while riding through
battle and eating-- What are you talking about? What? [LAUGHING] Apparently, I need
to redeem myself, because the place with the
cinnamon buns was closed. I'm fairly sure we can find
something to replace it. It could be a Scotch egg. But the thing is, I don't know
if it's one of London's best Scotch eggs. So I'm going to
have to ask them. And they might be biased. Would you say that these are one
of London's best Scotch eggs? Yes. Well, in that case,
let's get [INAUDIBLE].. This has got salad
with it, mate. We'll get rid of that. It's fine. Saved the day. I have, [INAUDIBLE]. Forget Katie's mistake. Oh. Oh. We can forget all
about that one. Oh, really. I have saved the day
with what they claim to be London's best Scotch egg. Charlie, aren't we going
somewhere later on specifically for a Scotch egg? Are we? Are we? Yeah, we're going to none
other than The Wigmore for their signature Scotch egg. Are you saying that
this [INAUDIBLE]?? So Jamie thinks he's
being really smart. But we can't have a
Scotch egg, because we're having that later at a
really posh restaurant famous for its Scotch eggs. So he's going to have
to polish that off. And that's not going to count
towards the 26.2 things. [BUZZING] This is really good. Dish number four, the
Bread Ahead Bakery for chocolate donuts. Well, don't kiss it. How is that kissing? How do you kiss? [LAUGHING] Let's make a baby. [LAUGHING] I'd pay 3 quid for that
any day of the week. I've already lost count. But the next one is Roast. Oh my god, I'd usually
be looking forward to a Roast sandwich so much. Now, Roast have a restaurant
in Borough Market, which serves one of the best
roast dinners you could ever bless your mouth with. But because we had limited
time, we put that roast dinner in a sandwich. Dish number five. Tender beef, juicy,
it makes the bread almost soggy but in a
really, really good way. This still classifies as brunch. Now, bearing in mind we'd just
eaten a roast dinner sandwich, this is how Jamie's brain works. Don't worry, guys. I'll save the day, yet again. Bratwurst. Oh, you went light? You went light there? We went for the works,
ketchup, mustard, sauerkraut. 3 and 1/2 hours in,
six dishes down, we were flying and actually
feeling pretty good. I think everybody's
doing really well. And I'm not feeling
it too much, yeah. I was worried about the sausage,
but the sauerkraut kind of cut through it. I'm having a great time. Like, do you know, one of the
things I love to do is eat? And all we're doing
so far is eating. If anything, there's
a little bit too much walking going on for my liking. [SPANISH MUSIC] Place number seven,
Al Pastor, famous for amazing Mexican food. We've got carnitas. To mix it up, we're going
to make them for each other. That is a slow cooked,
24-hour, pork carnita. Possibly, one of the best
things we've eaten so far. It's up there with
the croquetas. Next, a 20-minute
drive over the River Thames to The Mayfair Chippy. The original restaurant
is in Mayfair. But we were headed to
their brand new branch in East London for the UK
classic, fish and chips. And the portions were generous. You've got fresh,
succulent, crunchy fish with beautiful chips
and a selection of traditional sauces. Ah. Well, their tartar sauce
is the best tartar sauce I have ever had. And I'm literally doing
that, because it is superb. Five hours in and
Jamie was still struggling with the
concept of the challenge. Just realized I'm winning,
because I've had one more dish than all of the rest of you. It's not about winning. We're a team. In an hour's time, we'll
be a quarter of the way. Oh, is that true? We are in Spitalfields, where
one of my favorite places in London just opened a store. It's Monty's Deli. We're going to get
a Reuben special. It's bloody massive. The eagle has landed. I'm going to go in
so hard for this. Pastrami and salt beef. Are we sure we can handle this? That is smoky. And I didn't expect
that to be smoky. I can't work out if I'm in
love with that sandwich, or I'm scared of it. That's the best kind
of relationship. Because of Cinnabon-gate, we
were running about 15 minutes behind schedule. But whatever, we could claw
that time back easy, right? Really cute glasses. Oh, yeah. I mean, I've taken
my glasses off. Oh, nice. So I really hope
that you've kept mine and not put them
in amongst there, because I would never find them. Katie is freaking out right now. Are we done? Let's go. More scheduled fun. You love that, Ben. Actually, I do
like scheduled fun. That's true. Androuet is the
Aladdin's cave of cheese. And the cool thing is, you
can literally go in there, and give the guys 20
quid, and they'll give you a selection of amazing stuff. But only a proper bell would
do that on a food marathon. Guys, a whole bag of cheese. We stupidly decided to leave
that, and eat it later. What do you mean? It's got to count as a meal. Where are we going next? Bird in Old Street do
unbelievable fried chicken. But we needed ice cream. To be specific, ice
cream donut sandwiches. Different whole, isn't it? That was divine. Next up, we're going to split
into two teams to divide and conquer. But obviously, we
need to make sure that we all eat everything. So we're going to bring little
bits back, so that everyone can taste everything. Jamie, Ben, and I
headed to Shoreditch. And James and Baz went
to Convent Garden. So we're at Box Park, come
to The Athenian to get one of their souvlaki wraps. But I just looked at
my watch and realized that it's beer o'clock. It's the kind of kebab that you
can confidently and comfortably eat sober. It's absolutely delicious. But then if you've seen
what they've done there, but rather when you put
the chips with the wrap, they put the chips in the wrap. This smells exactly
like the best kebab I ever had in my life,
from Mustafa's in Berlin. James and Barry will
be upset if they don't get to try a
section of our 26.2, so we're taking this with us. There's enough-- [INAUDIBLE] It's too small. It's too small. [LAUGHING] Come out for the day and
the night, eat 26.2 dishes. At what point did you think,
I could do with a doggie bag, actually? It was getting quite
tough for some of us. All right, next up, Katie
has given us the schedule. And we are going to By Chloe. Yeah, we are that trendy. It's a fully vegan
place with [INAUDIBLE] So we've got the
black bean burger, but everything else is
providing freshness. So you've got the guac. You've got sweet
corn in the guac. You've got, like,
spicy mayo-y thing. It's actually really delicious. When we realized the next
place we were coming to was a burger place,
I was really worried. I was so worried. But that's clean. Delicious. Next, it was time to make up
the 0.2 of our 26.2 dishes, 0.1 of which, cocktails that
don't look like cocktails. For our drink, we've come to
The Cocktail Trading Company. And we have ordered a "Welcome
to Tennessee, Have a Nice Day." And no, I don't know
what it contains either. Have we gotten Chinese takeout? Chopstick straws. I got dual purpose, uses or not. I'll tell you in a minute. [LAUGHING] So three parts Jack
Daniels, two parts spiced matcha plum wine, two
parts cardamom ginger brew, and one part yuzu juice. Bloody delicious. Ebbers, you're going to bring
a date, aren't you, mate? This is going in the
worth-remembering collection. You've picked
Ben's perfect date. I know. How does that feel? I don't know. So we've just been
to Paul A Young. It's one of my favorite
chocolate shops in London. One of the best things to
get there is hot chocolate. Oh, ho, ho! I don't know what
that noise is but-- I have never heard
you do that before. It's got kick. You can taste that cardamom. It's kind of slightly salted. You can taste every spice
that goes into that. Because a hot chocolate
doesn't stay hot for very long, that we've bought them
some tailored treats-- Barry tailored treats. Can't wait to actually get
this to James and Barry. I can't wait to
see their reaction. No. What is it? What is that? Do I snuff it in? Do I drink it? I'm scared. It's delicious. That is unbelievable. That is beautiful. Now, enjoy your burger, guys. Those are the best
vegetables we've had all day. Vegan. Vegan. One [INAUDIBLE] for yourself. It's very close to my heart. Oh god, it's his lung. Haggis. Tobacco. Yes. Oh my god, [INAUDIBLE]
I'm so proud of you. I'm so proud of you. You brought Tupperware? I didn't know what
we were bringing. I thought we might
need to transport it. The last thing I'm
going to eat right now is a cold chip kebab thing. [LAUGHING] You insisted on this. I know I did. I like [INAUDIBLE] That's why I'm not
going mental right now. Every time I eat
something, I get my energy back straight away. Drinks? [CHIMING] East London, Trapeze
Bar, a circus themed bar and eatery where we thought
we'd have a few bar snacks and burn off some
calories playing sports. So here's the thing, I don't
need to eat anymore food. So we're getting yet more
food and then beer pong. Oh, no. I just got hungry again. Alcohol makes me hungry. Barry, can I just say that
I'm really proud of you for still being here. With another 12 hours
left of the challenge, Katie thought she would
help keep spirits up. So a common theme in marathons,
they normally try and raise money by dressing up. 12 hours and 13.2
dishes down easy. We're a bit full,
but no big problem. If only we knew just how
incomparably different the next 12 hours would be. We need to go now. We were expecting you at 10:35. Yeah. Our last orders are at 10:45. I think we need to go
to the next place now. So otherwise, we
miss that, as well. Two then-- Who the hell would want to turn
up and film at 11:30 PM today? I think if I run, mate, it's
going to come out both ends. This might be the central
bakery you can't buy from. You all probably going to want
to watch part two of that. It's going to come out
next Sunday, 4:00 PM. Subscribe, hit the bell. You don't want to miss it. Speaking of bells-- That is a horrible introduction
to Dad Joke of the Week. Dad Joke of the
Week has become one of the best parts of Sorted. So lots of tweets I get, say. [LAUGHING] What type of vegetable
tries to play it cool but doesn't really succeed? I have no idea. A rad-ish. That is-- Yeah? I can't even believe I exhaled. That was coming off as
if it was an exhale. Come on. Come on. That was bad, mate. [LAUGHING]
