"Dust with icing sugar"...and proceeds to pour half a packet over the dish! Love the way she clicked her fingers at the hired help Sara. Must have been a nightmare to work with.
The best quotes: “because you know it’s my considered opinion that Christmas is just about slave labour for the women” and “you think of somebody you’ve never really liked but you’re too well bred to say what you think so you take it out on the goose and stab it all over” 😂😂😂😂
I had an economics teacher try to pin a sowing machine on me tried to say I broke it on purpose needless to say she wasn’t a nice lady. See what I did there ;)
You guys are giving me home economics nightmares! I was annihilated for going into the cupboard to lick the bowl 😅. Spent the next hour standing on a chair infront of my classmates. Happy days 😂
You missed a quote! The one where she says, "Everything it my favourite this year, and I figure if it's good enough for me and my family then it will be good enough for yours." God, she was terrifying.
... and why on earth are so many calling her TERRIFYING ? I mean yes ... the A Certain Type of British Lady's Seventies Makeup AND Brow are ... well ....What They Are , but think how idiotic most fashions and fads look twenty yrs later . Her whisky and cigarettes-cured female baritone , the accent , the gay slapdash whapping the food around, the sympathy for the poor beleaguered British housewife .. I adore her .
If she was still doing this today she would have been at an industrial tribunal lol. Poor Sarah! I'm still creased that she clicked her fingers and then said "thank you my darling", that's a double insult 😂
Pretty sure she was on something, her method seemed slap dash but she always got there in the end with the help of her simpering assistant. It was certainly entertaining to watch this style of tv cooking, what a character!
I always thought that she was trying to look like Marlene Dietrich. She was such an icon at the time, and then it all came tumbling down when she ridiculed an amateur cook I remember her doing that.
ua-cam.com/video/K2aAL87OPkE/v-deo.html A few mins in but the best doco on Fanny Craddock that includes interviews with her neighbours, her son, and people who worked for her.
Actual real cookers you'd find in a normal person's house, no non stick easy to use pan's, or every ingredient already meticulously weighed out and put into a dozen separate little bowls. Kind of how the normal person would cook, perhaps not in a ballroom dress though lol
It's like watching Faye dunaway's portrayal of Joan Crawford had a cooking show
She seems like a b*tch lol can't believe she was so liked !
Yeah not really
@@IceAintNice I dunno maybe you've never seen the movie. If you have then you need to watch it again and also try developing a sense of humour.

Fucking WONNNNderful .
I’M GOING TO CUT YOU......a slice of my Christmas cake
Lololololol!
I adore how she scrunches her nose at the end when she tells you her goodbyes.
PURE ENTERTAINMENT! Fanny is the gift that keeps on giving. There is not one clip that I don't pi$$ myself laughing at!
“Think of somebody you really never liked”!! 😂
LOL I can think of several people.
@@independentpuppy7520 I can think of more, lol
Haha, the clicking of finger at the assistant, and dusting the omelette with a ton of icing sugar. 4:28
Eva Toth it makes me feels sick
That finger snap is the highlight of the whole video. :)
Do you know who that assistant actually is? It's an unknown (at the time) Delia Smith. Not kidding!
Mad as a box of frogs. Brilliant cook and entertainment
Baby Jane Hudson making scrambled eggs, now I've seen everything.
She’s like a scary home economics teacher lol, good cook though I’ve tried a few of her recipes and absolutely lovely. Very entertaining too

Just waiting for the day when someone plays her on RuPaul snatch game!😃
🤣
Great idea! Can't wait for that season of snatch game
I would volunteer to do it if I didn't have to get through all the other challenges first.
Was it worth the wait? 🤣
@@nedprinceton7221I snorted. 😅
When she clicked her fingers that was fucking iconic.
an amazing character and such. a legend - she was a real pioneer and such a hard worker - fabulous stuff
That Swiss roll rolling omg!
That poor bird! Sarah I mean.
She's hilarious! Love her!!
The 70’s was a weird time for food and cooking.
Emperor Palpatine - The Hidden Years
Came here after watching a QI clip where Fanny was described as "a cross between Mary Berry and Jeremy Clarkson" Had to see it for myself
she clicked her fingers at poor Sarah darling, I love her even more haha
Well . She DID call her " darling" at least ! 😆😍
Do you realise that 'Sarah' is actually Delia Smith? And I'm not joking!
If she clicked her fingers at me I'd bite em off, wasn't she great 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
You may not be joking, but you're certainly lying.
She's amazing. Wonderful ❤️
You missed a quote! The one where she says, "Everything it my favourite this year, and I figure if it's good enough for me and my family then it will be good enough for yours."
God, she was terrifying.
@Castlegrad watch Gordon Ramsey in the kids shows, he's actually a lively person. He just hates the arrogant adults
Shes my spirit animal
"Nothing like getting to the edge and finding there's nothing there" aye, well, happens to us all, Fanny!
We need an icing sugar montage
... and why on earth are so many calling her TERRIFYING ?

Thank you!
It’s all in the booklet

5'30" "And I'll use the bucket"🤣🤣🤣🤣
And yet most of those recipies are still wonderful today. Her cakes especially.
I make her plum pudding every year. Its wonderful.
I want to introduce you to my brandy butter, hello brandy butter lol
Pretty sure she was on something, her method seemed slap dash but she always got there in the end with the help of her simpering assistant. It was certainly entertaining to watch this style of tv cooking, what a character!
She was so much fun to watch and still is clearly. But...icing sugar absolutely everywhere..even on the omelette...hmmm.... #UKtellycookery1975
Icing sugar to soak up raw egg....I would of bounced it off her head if she served it to me.
I feel like Zoe Wanamaker could play her perfectly
Julia Davis did a brilliant job in portraying her in 'Fear of fanny '
love her
I am surprised nobody has mentioned the eyebrows!
Why stop mid-forehead with the eye brows? They’d look just as good at the ears
'Ear-brows', so to speak!
That Plum Pudding will do for my dinner -- pass me the rum and the hard sauce and please close the door as you leave the room
She was temperamental. Kind one moment and strict the next.
What a proper Fanny
OH MY GAWD FABULOUS
Favourite Christmas moments. Yes, that's much better spelling.
Around 3:25 ➡️
Grayson Perry meets Baby Jane.
Has anyone else noticed who her assistant 'Sarah' actually is? It's Delia Smith.
It's not Delia Smith. Granted she looks a bit like her, but then all of us brunettes had the same look in 1975!!
Your eyesight is failing!
Bloody hell the woman’s a monster
She was scary but nothing like a bit of fanny at Christmas
2:15 Ok -- this is the funniest and most terrifying thing I've seen all year 😂😳
Mincemeat omelette covered in a bag of sugar always got me!
Eyebrows
Life’s too short to draw them on properly
Dear old Fanny. She did a lot of prodding on that goose.
Always good to stick your hands back in the honey after massaging a dead animal.
Poor Sara lmao 😭🤣🤣 but loveeeee Fanny tho
If Baby Jane was a British cook...
Fanny sure had a thing for icing sugar!
Where can I find the recipes? Is there a booklet?
I wonder if anyone has the recipe booklet?
That booklet had to have been massive. I always wondered if her food was any good.
IT WAS REALLY A SMALL BOOK! :p
She was Allowed home for the Christmas Hols! Looks Crazy And Acts Crazy!
Did that goose owe her money?
That wasn't the real theme tune, it was dulci jubilo.
" And whats this about fruit going to the middle and sinking down to the bottom"
She was with icing sugar the way modern chefs are with salt, pepper and olive oil.🤣
IS FUNNY BUT THEY MADE HER A MAKE UP SHE LOOKS LIKE AN OPERA SINGER THAT REMINDS ME THE OPERA MADAME BUTTERFLY
Fanny was very fond of icing sugar. Very thickly.
I made some of these recipes and they all ended up tasting like Fanny’s.
I think she's tremendous. I wouldn't be surprised if she dusted her husband with icing sugar after they buried him... 😅
It DOES repeat so🤣🤣🤣🤣
its money for old rope
She was a strange one but her cooking was spot on.
Johnny said that if you follow the recipe your mince pies will look like Fanny,s......ooh err missus...
"Lisa's still in her nightgown!"
Sugar on the omelette!!! Noooooo.
I've never seen Kenneth Williams in a dress before!
'Person's nose OFF' lol
“Parson’s nose.” And the Two Fat Ladies called it “the Pope’s nose” when Jennifer Paterson cooked poule au pot for a team of lumberjacks.
All hail the Margarine Mistress!
She was nuts wasn't she?
My mum was a fantastic cook,my mum would make her dishes look a damn sight more appetising than Fanny Craddocks
She Scares Me Just As My Mum😨😨😨😨
Everything was green in the 70s!
Whatever happened to sarah? Bless her 🙏❤
'Probably killed tragically when the delivery of icing sugar for episode three fell of the lorry and buried her.
I wonder whatever became of poor Sarah? Probably had a nervous breakdown, poor woman. Who wouldn't?
4:14 When do you eat this omelette? Is it a breakfast dish, a main course or a pudding? What a revolting mystery.
Some people on another UA-cam video said they'd tried the recipe and it was surprisingly nice
Some bit of kit that is
I always thought that she was trying to look like Marlene Dietrich. She was such an icon at the time, and then it all came tumbling down when she ridiculed an amateur cook
I remember her doing that.
Just sprinkle powdered sugar on everything🤪.
It's called icing sugar
"I want to introduce you to my brandy butter"
billydeeuk I think the butter paper was thicker back then. The way butter paper rips now you would be hard pressed to see the brand.
@Tilly Divine Stupid autocorrect
It’s like watching my granny cook. Except Fanny needs a Virginia slim and tall glass of scotch
Pale green brandy butter? Disgusting thought, let alone creating it.
Welcome to the 1970s
She was cooking the shit outta them eggs
why did she sugar an omelette?
Because it was the 1970s
That godawful mincemeat omelette dear god
Ahhh. The goose is getting an invigorating rubdown.... Hey its Joe Biden.....

Icing sugar in an omlet?
Welcome to the 1970s
4:29 this bish just snapped at her
🤣
Only the BBC.
Mary Berry meets Jeremy Clarkson
Her food looked like shit, but I love her!!!
Especially her Christmas pudding! It looked like a gigantic turd ball.
