Summary |
Restaurant critic Giles Coren and writer and performer Sue Perkins spend a week on the diet of a wealthy Victorian couple. Cooking for them at home is best selling cookery writer Sophie Grigson. As Giles dons top hat and waxed moustache, Sue dresses up in tight corset and wide skirts. They visit the Natural History Museum to try the food of Charles Darwin's Glutton Club, a tea where they try and raise the spirits of the dead and find out what Oliver Twist and the poor really ate. The week culminates with a traditional Victorian Christmas complete with a giant pie as enjoyed by Queen Victoria herself. (From the UK in English) (Food Series) PG CC WS |
