I'm on a break so to fill the gap here are some of my favourite recipes from the podcast's vaults.Neil has a most enlightening chat with Kevin Geddes about the fabulous television cook Fanny Cradock (1909-1994). Fanny has a reputation for being difficult to work with, cruel and monstrous, and that she was a fake. In this chat Kevin upturns SOME of those preconceptions. We talk about her way into radio and television, her manner and presenting style, the fantastic Christmas special, as well as her decline and fall from television cookery. Much of her life is fabricated and it is difficult to see where the real Fanny stops, and the celebrity Fanny begins.Subscribers: don't forget to check out the Easter Egg tab on the website to listen to the many extras from this episode: http://britishfoodhistory.com/easter-eggs/Kevin's book Keep Calm and Fanny On!

Episode 25 (17/07/24) - Barry's in charge this week and the chat kicks off with the Trump assassination attempt. Then he takes a look back at Fanny Cradock (one of the first celebrity chefs) and Greg shares a first hand account of what she was really like, told to him by someone that used to work for her. After that, there's Gareth Southgate's wages and resignation, celebrities encouraging people to gamble, David Beckham's crisp advert, “water cooler” TV shows, Strictly dancers being mean, PC Punch & Judy shows, Greg sees the set of a new TV show being filmed in Aylesbury town centre, reviews of new movies ‘The Bikeriders' and ‘Free Time', a new segment called “What? You ain't seen that?”, first times at Nandos, psychic's generic cold readings, a chat with a guy who used to clean Trafalgar Square, a half baked account of the history of New York City from 1609 - 1825, the curse of Grange Hill, Future Greg and a whole lot more!
This week, Gilly's with a man after her own heart. There are very few people who write about TV chefs and their place in British food culture, but Kevin Geddes, author of Keep Calm and Fanny On and Gilly, who wrote Taste and the TV Chef (2020) are two of them.Channel 5 is showing an hour long documentary on December 28th called the 70s Dinner Party in which Gilly joins Dr Annie Gray to talk about the social history of the TV chef. She and Kevin celebrate by diving deeply into the '70s food world through the prism of Fanny Cradock, and find much more than green mashed potato and mince meat omelette.Head to Gilly's Substack for some Extra Bites on the Channel 5 show. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Neil talks to returning guest Kevin Geddes. He told us all about the wonderful, fabulous Fanny Cradock, but today he is talking to me about Television Cookery Shows and their cookbook tie-ins. Kevin wrote a very interesting paper on the early history and origins of TV Cookbooks, and Neil found it so interesting, and he thought you would find it interesting too.We talked about the early cooking programmes on the BBC before the war, and afterwards; the post-war TV cooks the theatrical Philip Harben and the steady pair of hands Marguerite Patten and how they published their own books whilst working for the BBC; the BBC's worry about selling commercial products whilst being a public service broadcaster; and the one who really got it all going Mrs Fanny Cradock.

Fanny Cradock was the inspiration for many new chefs across Britain in her day. But it was a competition to find a modern-day equivalent that saw our latest guest rise to prominence when she won that very title on Gordon Ramsey’s F Word in 2007.Today, Ravinder Bhogal is an award-winning chef, restaurateur, TV presenter and writer; beloved for her inventive mixed-heritage cooking that celebrates the beautiful similarities and intricate differences between cultures.With our host Felicity Blunt, she shares her experience of arriving in the UK from Kenya as a seven-year-old, her desire to nurture and nourish people with her food, and discusses the inspiration for her bananas-sounding banana ketchup which we thoroughly recommend you try for yourself asap.

The Christmas Special that very nearly wasn't! After losing most of our first recording of this episode - ironic given the episode we were reviewing is the most missing Doctor Who episode of them all - we proceeded undaunted and re-recorded our thoughts on this the first Doctor Who Christmas Special: episode 7 of The Daleks' Master Plan - The Feast of Steven. Along the way - thanks to the Time-Space Visualiser - we play some Christmas tunes, consider the Christmas of 1965, try out our Scouse accents, rail against everyday Sixties sexism and racism, and ultimately decide that we would like to spend our Christmas with a Dalek rather than the non-Z Cars policeman or the Hollywood crazies the regulars meet in this episode. Incidentally, a Happy Christmas to all of you at home - very much at home this year. May you have comfort, joy, green Fanny Cradock mashed potatoes, and as much Terry's Chocolate Orange as you want. Music from: The Waitresses, Kim Appleby and The Go Go's (not those ones). We highly recommend Gavin Rymill's excellent video on the behind-the-scenes story of The Feast of Steven: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PD3JyJvjr8A We will return on New Year's Day with... Warriors of the Deep (gasp!)

The food writer and chef Olivia Potts joins the Slightly Foxed editors for a literary banquet. Olivia was a barrister for five years before enrolling at Le Cordon Bleu, becoming a cookery columnist on The Spectator and writing A Half Baked Idea, a memoir with recipes. From finding consolation in cooking and precision in pâtisserie to nostalgia-soaked blancmange and family dinners in the Cazalet Chronicles, the conversation flows, welcoming Jane Grigson, Elizabeth David, Charles Dickens and the extraordinary Fanny Cradock to the table along the way. And in this month’s taste from the magazine’s archives, Rachel Khoo’s cookbook conjures up feasts in an attic in Paris. Please find links to books, articles, and further reading listed below.

Episode 28 brings you the delicious delights of pioneering TV chef and all-around extravagant character Fanny Cradock! This English Dead Lady invented her history and sculpted her future out of oysters, champagne, and tiaras. Fanny could sell out the Albert Hall in London for a crowd who gathered to see her make cooking into entertainment. Her hold-no-bars approach, however, meant her life wasn’t all smooth sailing - her story includes bigamy, exploding yachts, and child abandonment. Mary Scherpe, the founder of Berlin’s Feminist Food Club and the website https://www.stilinberlin.de brings us the tale of fabulous Fanny. Dead Ladies Show co-founders Florian Duijsens and Katy Derbyshire join podcast producer & presenter Susan Stone around the kitchen table — where else— to toast Dead Ladies past and future, and to talk about their own favorite holiday treats.
