'Have you got a pear tree in your garden?' 'No.' 'REALLY?!?!' 'No, it's something I'd have to put in.' 'oh. I'd have thought with an old-fashioned garden you'd have had one.' They really can't stand each other, can they?
They are a bit like the Marjorie and Joan characters played by Victoria Wood and Julie Walters on As Seen On TV. They bitch at each other all the time.
There's one episode where Mary is cooking and asks Ann, "What does this smell remind you of?" It doesn't remind Ann of anything. Then Mary says, "Oh, of course, you didn't have babies. This smells of gripe water." Ann's face is a picture. A completely stony look and she doesn't say a thing! It was a very rude, even insensitive thing for Mary to say.
I remember watching this as a kid. The blonde woman in the cooking segment (the one with no quince lol) always came across as a total snob. I remember an older lady named Sylvia who was louder and blousier and much more fun!
This is crying out for a Victoria Wood or French & Saunders spoof
I thought it was ... lol RIP Victoria - the body language in this speaks volumes.
You can see where Victoria good her ideas for…by watching this and other day time shows ..Mum called this show “ Cat Party”

I think Ann Ladbury was more Desperate Housewife . She doesn't really look that interested in Mary's creations .
I love Anne.....she looks like she’d like to smack Mary’s face right off the worktop
@@Jess-k6q 😃 It’s also lovely when you get a response to a comment you posted 7 years ago too 😁
@@daviddunninguk I’ve just come across these David! I wish there was more of them.......it’s like a whole different world!
That Mary was frightfully horrid wasn't she?
quite.. ha ha but her chutney looks fabulous TBH
She was so patronising, the epitome of posh ladies from West Sussex at the time!
“Oh you haven’t got a quince tree either errrmmmmm “
Ann looks like a bored teenager ….no intention of ever making chutney

Have you got quince in your garden? No I only have four
Used to watch this avidly when I was a teenager - no wonder I ended up gay.
All those ingredients just to use up a couple of unbeatable pears ..cut the blooming tree down

Mum called this show Cat Party hahah
Unintentionally hilarious. Could you be arsed!
this is EVERYTHING - I think Ann has been on the Cinzano

Would love to be going round for a candle light supper.
