Barry's little "wha?" when Ben defined anthromorphism was quite adorable. Also Mike's saltiness at losing and Ben's little passive agressiveness at no one trying the lemonade made it perfect to me.

I was absolutely convinced it was Winnie the Pooh! Ben said "Oh, bother!" about the air bubbles and then when he was saying "or" over and over again I thought that was referencing Eeyore and then he brought out the honey pot at the end! I don't know either of the stories incredibly well but a whimsical little picnic in the woods with anthropomorphic animals sounded very Winnie the Pooh to me. I love this series, can't wait for more!

Loved the reaction to Ben's picnic backpack. "He's been trying to expense this bag for so long!" I love how cheeky they've become with that background fact in their production, like during the Gourmet Noodles video where Ben quietly admitted they filmed at the biang-biang noodle restaurant so that they could use it in the video and expense the lunch.

Love this format! Can't say I actually knew it at this point but at 3:21 when Ben said "Graham and Ken" my ex-literature student brain did think "huh, sounds a bit like Kenneth Grahame". Unfortunately I discarded that idea very quickly because I was still convinced it was a real life event, so I bounced around between the Titanic, the Oxford/Cambridge boat race, and at one point the moon landing 😂 finally came full circle and realised it actually was Wind in the Willows after all when you brought out the picnic basket and ginger beer - you sure do know how to take us on a journey Ebbers!

An interesting format, but a small suggestion. It feels like there's a suggestion that there is almost a contest to guess first (lots of oooh I think I've got it's), but then of course they just guess at the end. Maybe once they think they have an answer they should have to write it down (secretly), then at the end you look through the guesses potentially quite fun to see what the guesses were and also makes the normals actually commit to their musings

This was harder than the last. From a couple of minutes in I was swithering between Wind In The Willows, The Famous Five & Swallows & Amazons. The later was out quickly as they had a lot of cooked/hot elements of food in their books. Famous Five were out soon too as they famously had tomato sandwiches instead of cress, tinned sardines, shortbread, Nestlé milk, ginger beer, tins of pineapple chunks & squares of chocolate in addition to the more grown up food Ben & Ratty prepared. Great series, exercise the mind & so far encompasses my passions or food/cooking, history & literature. Whats not to like.

Straight off of clue #1...Graeme and Ken Edward enjoyed this as their Wedding meal 2 years ago! lol These are fun videos! Suggestion: Leave the video for a day without the answer, do a contest and release the answer the next day! Give away a sub to the app, or a book, something you were gonna bin from the set...

I unpacked everything it came with and packed it with everything I needed from my bar to make Old Fashioned's and Blackberry Bourbon Smash at a friend's party. It worked really well! 😁

So... Ben's Clues even worked through translation. I love(d) it as an audiobook in the German translation by Harry Rowohlt and got the reference by combining the "cold chicken" (kaltes Hühnchen) and the enumeration of the selection of goods (although the translated version ditched the "or" for some kommata...). This was a great episode, thank you!
