My Granny Smith
 Listen to the item
Last week, Annabel Chapman admitted she had a passion for collecting fruit stickers - by fair means or foul. This week, we go one better and meet Melvin Smith, the bona fide great-great-great-grandson of Granny Smith.
That's not just any old Granny Smith, it's the one after 聽whom the apple was named. You can聽see a picture of her on the website below (thanks Margaret Emery, for telling us about it).
Melvin talks to聽David Stafford about聽how he felt when he discovered聽that he had such a famous聽forbear.聽
