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.
Clarissa had been sober from her alcohol addiction for many years by the time she died. She was open about her alcohol problem and how she got sober in AA. She is a beloved role model for my recovery today in NA
This is probably my favorite episode. I love the sounds of their voices and the sounds of the kitchen prep and mixing things in bowls it just calms me for some reason
You just don't meet people like this very often, they were so special in every way, they must be so sorely missed by friends and family, but what a legacy, they have given us hours of entertainment, was such a wonderful show.
Another fascinating layer to these two accomplished ladies: Clarissa is qualified cricket umpire. I wish there were a dedicated bio doc on Clarissa similar to the excellent one on Jennifer. i never tire of watching these episodes. I only wish they had produced 100 more.
Her memoir "Spilling the beans" was great! check it out. God save Clarissa Theresa Philomena Aileen Mary Josephine Agnes Elsie Trilby Louise Esmerelda Dickson Wright
@@ABCDuwachui No, I wouldn't say that. While I do appreciate a Dionysian attitude towards food and drink, nikado's celebration of overconsumption and his general demeanor is not appealing. His content is quite alarming.
Clarissa did some really good documentaries on the history of breakfast,lunch and dinner.. you can find on TH-cam 👍🏼 not a biography, but still enjoyable
I absolutely loved this show. Not only was it entertaining; but the ladies had some wonderful stories about their lives. May they both rest in peace. ❤❤
@@Millie_dread Did I actually say that?? NO. Savaging is an old fashioned term meaning to 'ravish' someone, kiss and cuddle with passion. You crass moron.
I think Lidia Bastianich did a show with Julia Child on her show Cooking with Master Chefs. I'd forgotten about her. Thanks for re-introducing me to her!
@@jasonmorris921 She's one of my favorites too. I love how she includes her family into her shows. I especially love how she interacts with her mother.
Lidia is a doll! More earnest than these two sly and hilarious darlings, but one of the current antidotes to the wretched cooking competitions - too often presided over by grotesque self-promoting ogres - that seem to have gripped the globe in recent years...
Loved This: “She Was A Splendid Woman “Princess Alexandra” When “Edward the 7th” Was Dying,She Sent For His Favorite Mistress,Oh Yes,”Ms Keckell”,That’s What I Call Style,Style Indeed,She Was “Camillas” Great Great Grandmother Wasn’t She? That’s Rite,Runs In The FAMILY!!! :-O
That Manor house looks very much like the one in the t.v. show 'As time goes by', Lionel's father,(Rocky's) house. Of course was looking for Mrs. Bales driving the motor bike with side car! So sorry I came upon this show to find that both of these ladies have passed away, what great fun they were.
I didnt know Clarissa had passed. Loved these two ladies and the stories were as great as their cooking! I sure they are laying out a table feast for the heavenly realm. Blessed to have know them.
My grandma used to tell me "Eat your salad(I hated them when I was a kid)and you'll have curly hair like mine." hate my salad and I still have straight hair.She lied.
Watched Jennifer’s life story on you tube. She was such a wonderful lady. Used to cater for cabinet ministers etc., and tickled Enoch Powell on the head saying “coo jee coo” apparently only Jennifer could have got away with it. 🤣👍👍
Jennifer and Clarissa, I've always enjoyed your shows on Food Network. I always looked forward to each episode. They were always comforting and entertaining. Love and miss you both.
when i was a boy my dad played cricket in a little village like this and when it was my mum's turn to be making the teas i used to go spend the day there and i remember eating cricket teas. lots of ham sandwiches and cold boiled eggs
I never missed an episode when first broadcast. These ladies kept you on your toes. Just loved them. I was devastated when Jennifer died. But, she was a heavy smoker until the end. Thanks for the memories....
I remember making those "Rigo Jancsi Chocolate Slices" following her recipe, but halving the whole recipe to make a smaller quantity for two. We had it for afternoon tea and had a very, very light dinner afterwards!
My husband is Hungarian and I've never seen the Rigó Jancsi made like that, but I'm sure there are different versions. I've ALWAYS seen/made/had it with chocolate sponge, very thick layer of choc. cream, then choc. glazed on top. Always cut into big cubes. That's ok, Clarissa, I'd listen and enjoy any story you told. ..I miss them both so much. ~RIP Jennifer & Clarissa
This is probably my favorite episode. And I am finally going to make those gentlemen's delights for a fancy cocktail party next week. Since I am American I will of course be making the Gentlemen's Relish from scratch.
@@manthony777 They sound yummy. I'm more of a savoury person, so these would be up my street. ... I don't think making the anchovy spread would be that hard, but just another picky step. Have you been tempted to make it?
@@Luna.3.3.3 , I love anchovies. I use them often. I buy anchovy paste. If you make croutons, add anchovies or anchovy paste to the oil. (Olive oil) You would be very pleased.
@@manthony777 I love that idea; and do make my own croutons. I'll definitely try that. Thanks! I'm still interested in making those cute little pinwheels. I have no chance of finding the relish, or it'd be horribly expensive here in Canada. If you're interested, I found this: larderlove.com/how-to-make-gentlemans-relish-patum-peperium/
@@Luna.3.3.3 , thank you. I found the gentleman's relish on amazon. It's not expensive in the states. It's also called anchovy relish. I may order a jar. If not, it looks easy to make.
I not only loved the adventure they gave us but their polite jabs at one another!! Those jabs were so polite to my American ears i hardly noticed 😂 we can't have you savaging the gentleman 😂😂
When I see cricket players I think of Are You Being Served Again. lol While I have made Clarissa's chicken sandwich I didn't add the tongue. I used crispy fried bacon chopped up and it was excellent. I love these ladies. :o)
Greetings from Florida 🐬 Luv these ladies who have Gone to their Glory 🌈 R.I.P Im following a court case in Tallahassee, and Ruth Markle and Clarissa could pass for twins!
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.
Love,love,love tongue ! You. Cannot buy it cooked and sliced like ham, in USA, AT Least I’ve never seen it ! Was tempted to make my own ! But I’d be only one eating it ! Veal slices were another favourite !
12:30 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.
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.
I'm American and I always wished Jennifer and Clarissa would do an American version of their show, even if it was just a one-off. If for no other reason than to see the looks on people's faces as the ladies introduce some of these recipes to the American public. LOL
There one that is similar. 18th Century Cooking with James Townsend & Sons. It's fascinating to see recreations of early colonial recipes. He's chock full of information. The recipes are easy to do.
They were fabulous, but would their humour go down well in mainstream America? I'm thinking of some of their asides, like Jennifer, whilst dealing with a chicken, and her comment was 'I always say that there is a lot of good in an old cock.'
They aren’t American, we don’t really have this eccentric, aristocrat, throw back trope... Do we? I think it only works as British, or maybe specifically ex-colonial English... Not many of those left today...
What a shame that the soundtrack has had to be blocked in this and other episodes - copyright laws I suppose. But still a nostalgic treat nevertheless - thank you for sharing.
Baking Blind? Is that when you put the beans. Used just for this purpose , in raw pastry and bake in oven ? Keeps the pastry flat for fillings, and beans can be saved and used again ....big tarts she is making. LOL
Our first trip to England 20+ years ago on the way to Harrogate we passed through a village where the cricket team, all in white uniforms, was playing in the afternoon sun. Soo English!😊
I love how Clarissa says “I like a good strong Indian, now and again!” She cracks me up with her innuendoes!
"One must have lusciousness in fruit tarts" - never a truer word spoken Jennifer. Miss these two ladies

Yes, so true, and delightful food, a very nice tea, I should say.
They were not friends and the chemistry was fake
@@Wittywidow559 they were friends and their interaction and body language show sincerity.
@@mysticmeg111 they were not friends,they had only just met
Clarissa had been sober from her alcohol addiction for many years by the time she died. She was open about her alcohol problem and how she got sober in AA. She is a beloved role model for my recovery today in NA
I think I could just sit in the corner of that kitchen with a cup of tea and listen to these two all day
So would I
Me too
@@megamvanam1679 me too, with a cup of Earl Grey!
That's it. A cup of Earl Grey, and a Scone. Cheerio!

I love Clarissa s dirty jokes.. even more when Jennifer ignore s them.
The bit about chocolate being more consistent than sex is one of the many truisms I’ve learned from these lovely ladies.
The stories they both tell are equally wonderful.
Lady J the lives these two lived were amazing. RIP Jennifer and Clarissa.
I couldn’t love these ladies more. Such delightful creatures.
I absolutely loved this show. Not only was it entertaining; but the ladies had some wonderful stories about their lives. May they both rest in peace. ❤❤
Cricket....Jaundice...Tea...Edward VII's favourite mistress...Viennese connections...makes one proud to be British :)
Tilly Divine we stayed out until it was obvious yall couldnt do it without us
It was indigenous Americans who saved ALL of your Colonial asses with their code talking. So...you're welcome.
Pretty spicy history.
Watching them banter and cooking feels like a warm, cozy blanket.
RIP wonderful ladies.

She meant tea I think!
I think she spread double entendres throughout. Very charming.

The same with wine! 🤣🤣
those two were incredibility talented ladies. England lost a wonderful pair.
If there was a contest for best off-the-cuff banter, Jennifer and Clarissa would be the grand champions, for sure 👌
Such a lovely thing, afternoon tea. What beautiful area too. The desserts made my mouth water! The history tales were as usual - saucy.

I wouldn’t describe the mid to late 90s as “closed and lost time chapter”.
@@benswindlehurst1857it’s ‘closed and lost’ because both are now deceased.
Jennifer and Clarissa, I've always enjoyed your shows on Food Network. I always looked forward to each episode. They were always comforting and entertaining. Love and miss you both.

A quick reminder of the genealogy of the current Queen, "it runs in the family". These Ladies were and remain a national treasure.
"Fear no! I have directions to the local farm." Hilarious!
Afternoon Tea isn't common in the United States. but it should be!
I adored them and their very entertaining programs!

Truly missed..♥️♥️♥️
"I don't like crouching much" ;')
Two fat ladies is without a doubt the best cooking show in history.
Really miss these fabulous women.
I made the savoury delights and they're absolutely delicious - quite strong and salty but so moreish!
"Luscious as a Gypsy fiddler" lol
No electric mixers. No blenders. No food processors. No deep fat fryers.
I miss the 90s. I was barely a child but I remember it being a happy time.
I miss the1970 s! 😺💜❤️💚
I so wish I had/could get the measurements as a guide, but hey, that’s the way REAL COOKS work, measuring it all by eye and touch!
All their recipes should be on food network.
I not only loved the adventure they gave us but their polite jabs at one another!! Those jabs were so polite to my American ears i hardly noticed 😂 we can't have you savaging the gentleman 😂😂
One of my favorite shows that I have been watching for two decades on repeat
I tried to cook their recepies and Clarissas have been always a success. God may save their souls.
So glad to have found these episodes here. Thank you so much for sharing with us ❤ I used to watch this show with my mom so it's a comfort to me
Oh I miss them and their recipes 🙏💐

"Dear old Tabasco. What would we do without it." Agreed. What would we do without this wonderful show...
This is torture...I want a Tart and a piece of that lovely chocolate cake that Clarissa made!! 😋
Hell yeah me too
I see some commenting here about the "bit of mayonnaise", but she's not making only one sandwich ;-)
These wonderful girls brought me gracefully down from a monstrous LSD high. As I knew they would. Bravo girls! I believe I shall have a cigarette.

Gooseberries are lovely in a tart (or pie) with elderflowers and fresh cream, but I don't think they grow well in warmer climates.
My grandad used to grow gooseberries in his garden in Staffordshire, UK.
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...
@@markwhitman9542 germany has gooseberries ❤️ i love them! Somewhat tart i can get gooseberry jam in australia! 💚🇦🇺
Clarissa wrote a book "spilling the beans" full bio.
Thankyou, I was trying to look for something they wrote. I think she's lived a very interesting life
i grew up watching cooking shows my dad always put them on and i remember as a child being so comforted by them
❤️ Afternoon tea and cricket...

They never use machines. They always do everything by hand. No standing mixer or food processor
I agree. Only use when necessary.
I'm American and I always wished Jennifer and Clarissa would do an American version of their show, even if it was just a one-off. If for no other reason than to see the looks on people's faces as the ladies introduce some of these recipes to the American public. LOL
There one that is similar. 18th Century Cooking with James Townsend & Sons. It's fascinating to see recreations of early colonial recipes. He's chock full of information. The recipes are easy to do.
I liked their show but they only mentioned America to insult us.....funny, they had some weird ideas....
seriously, you need to grow up.....Bra ha ha ha ha ha you're nothing
They were fabulous, but would their humour go down well in mainstream America? I'm thinking of some of their asides, like Jennifer, whilst dealing with a chicken, and her comment was 'I always say that there is a lot of good in an old cock.'
They aren’t American, we don’t really have this eccentric, aristocrat, throw back trope... Do we? I think it only works as British, or maybe specifically ex-colonial English... Not many of those left today...
Afternoon tea, cricket on the green....what Britain does best.
They were so cute! And nice recipes too.
RIP Clarisa & Jennifer!!
They were unique and funny ladies.
these ladies are hilarious riding in that motor cycle, my favorite show
What a shame that the soundtrack has had to be blocked in this and other episodes - copyright laws I suppose. But still a nostalgic treat nevertheless - thank you for sharing.
I Love apricots !!! There is only one thing better, apricot jam.

Wheey heyyyyyyy.. les than 3 minutes and the butter is already out. Well done ladies
“runs in the family” 😂🔥
to Bobby 1998........the two fat ladies did have their program on the food network for a time a couple of years ago. People I know loved it!

Baking Blind? Is that when you put the beans. Used just for this purpose , in raw pastry and bake in oven ? Keeps the pastry flat for fillings, and beans can be saved and used again ....big tarts she is making. LOL
Yes, that is what 'blind baking' refers to. And, by the way, the beans (or other small weights) are baking ON the pastry, not IN the pastry!
They are totally wicked - and delightful!
I love how they always roll up in their scooter and sidecar XD
