Christmas Cooking. I am sure the Brits on here know all about the divine loopiness of Fanny Cradock, but I have only just discovered her. →[More:]Here for your watching enjoyment is a series of her Christmas shows from 1975:

Christmas Birds: Part 1, Part 2
Christmas Puddings
Royal Mincemeat: Part 1, Part 2
Petit Fours: Part 1, Part 2
Christmas Cakes

As a bonus, 1960s Fanny and husband Johnnie save the marriage of a young couple by teaching pitiful Janet how to cook.
Part 1
Part 2

Fanny Cradock was absolutely bloody bonkers. I used to feel so sorry for Johnny. No wonder he was perpetually drunk.

Yes, she is very scary. I did wonder about Johnnie. There must have been compensations somewhere.
