Love Delia, still watch her first series every year.

[@journojane]

Thank you so much. I’m a massive foodie, but Delia taught me how to cook, and if in doubt or just uninspired I always go back to her. She’s my culinary comfort blanket

[@sparklegirl66]

Me too!

[@dougraddi908]

With all her money, you'd think she'd get her teeth fixed

[@alisonhope1]

​@dougraddi908 Why do you care about her personal appearance?She obviously isn't vain about her teeth .She cares about baking and cooking.She gave me the confidence to bake and cook and I won't hear a word against her.

Delia I used to watch you cooking on tv in the 70's when I was a young child. I'm now almost 60 and all I have of you are good memories. I must get hold of your cookery books.

What a fascinating life you have! So nice to see England through the years I have been alive. I am American, but have always had a fondness for all things English. Someday when and if the world is right again, I would love to travel there. I love British television and most of the KZbin channels I subscribe to are from England. So glad I found your channel!

4:45 "Kids, if a man in a top hat ever offers YOU a banana, make yourself scarce." 😂 I havent seen the rest of this series, but I do not believe they can top this line!

"Kids, if a man in a top hat ever offers YOU a banana, make yourself scarce." LOL!

[@DevonPixie1991]

Della taught me how to cook. She’s saint Delia

[@dallassukerkin6878]

Aye - I have had to relearn how to cook after becoming a widower and Saint Delia has literally saved my bacon more than once. If I am stuck and can't see what I am supposed to do then she's the one I turn to.

[@bpage4132]

This is my all-time favourite episode, but I didn`t know she was a swimsuit model for the Sunday Pictorial, but they turned her down, because she wasn`t sexy enough according to the programme, and also I didn`t know she`s a Rolling Stones fan, especially making a gaudy cake for their 1969 album-Let It Bleed [when I was 2 years old at the time, when their album was released], and good narration from Stephen Fry, and he`s absolutely great throughout.

[@davidpar2]

Looks like Janine Duvitski at 28:41

[@darrenwelling7562]

@davidpar2 You only catch a quick clip so it's not easy to tell, especially with them jam jar glasses he he?

[@darrenwelling7562]

Who'd of thought such a clearly intelligent woman failed at school!?

[@TheLows-gk6kc]

Or was it that the school failed her

[@barrycarrigan5584]

Les be AVIN it .
