    The beauty of this show wasn't just their chemistry, but it was the history they left us with. Not only world history and the history of food, but their own personal histories too. It made them real and relateable. This show has always been my "comfort food". You can't help but feel good watching them. I miss them both so much.

    The awfully sad thing is that this type of programming is now completely forbidden by the likes of the BBC, and now remains in the remit of independent productions or UA-camrs. It took a genius producer to get the ladies together - they had a slightly fractious history together but on camera really gave us some memorable performances.
    I highly recommend tracking down Jennifer's two books of "receipts" from her time at the Spectator. Of the two she was really the most accomplished and practical cook and her her taste is absolutely impeccable. Clarissa, a rather problematic character if you dig a little deeper, was rather more the food historian but brought her own charm. The four Two Fat Ladies cookbooks are also absolutely essential - packed full of recipes from the series and plenty of others. They are among my most referenced cook books when looking for bits of inspiration. Clarissa's Mutt'achar (curried eggs) still ranks as among the best breakfast dishes I've ever made, and Jennifer's Buttered Crab is simply the finest way to present a well-cooked crab and is amazingly adaptable as well.

    I love this show, but where's the wonderful background music, for example, the scene where they pick strawberries or the cricket match scene? They aiways had such delightful incidental music.

    Fresh gooseberries? I thought those were all but extinct. I've lived in Kentucky, Florida and Texas and have never seen them myself, only when I've ordered the Amish gooseberry jam online. There's no "berry" taste to them, they taste more like tomato or rather green tomato when you fry them. Nothing you'd bring to a party because nobody would recognize them as a pie or whatever.

      Numba1 Heathen I eat golden gooseberries....they look like a tomato but taste like a citrus fruit. They are yellow and from Colombia...I live in ny and can get them all the time. They look just like the green ones, but the inside is nothing like a tomato.

      Gooseberries are lovely in a tart (or pie) with elderflowers and fresh cream, but I don't think they grow well in warmer climates.

      Ons of my great-grandmothers had gooseberries growing in her front yard in Missouri. Tart to downright mouth-puckeringly sour, but, when sweetened, delicious in pies and cobblers...

    "She was Camilla's great-great-great-grandmother, wasn't she? Runs in the family."
    The "Camilla" that Jennifer is referring to, for those of the viewers that do not know, was the then Camilla Parker Bowles, the now wife of Charles, the Prince of Wales, who, it is generally accepted, was Charles' mistress during his first marriage, to Diana.

      And, just to throw in another bit of juicy gossip, that same Mrs Keppel's daughter, Violet, had a long and passionate extramarital affair with a certain Mrs Nicolson, aka Vita Sackville-West, poet, author and creator of the famous gardens at Sissinghurst Castle.
