Veronica was married to Sir Fitzroy Maclean, the legendary soldier and spy. This is their kitchen at Strachur House, we were neighbours in the 80s an 90s, lovely people and Fitz was probably one of the most impressive men I have ever met.

Thank you

The nice thing is I am sure they are both pissed. It's Lovely.

no u future kid. things were different back then.

[@UffUffsen]

@@Anudorini-Talah yes people were pissed all the time.

[@smcc5785]

Yeah, alcoholism is lovely, isn’t it, old chap

[@StillAliveAndKicking_]

Floyd was marvellous, so much of the video is off the cuff and spontaneous. And he was an excellent cook and writer.

[@Creissels]

How wonderfully disorganised as usual! She's splendid.

[@PrivateAckbar]

I love this lady.

[@magicpony9]

I know, right? She is utterly charming.

[@karlwood7014]

I could speak to someone like her for hours and enjoy every second of her knowledge and wisdom. Today's woman haven't got one tenth of their class and intelligent deminor. Shame

A magnificent hat....a rolling boil...a hob heat...that old bird was something else

Jolly lovely video full of eccentricities and old fashioned humour.

[@mark-j-adderley]

The essence of true aristocracy, true nobility, is to have absolutely no pretentiousness at all; no airs-and-graces, no pomposity or artificial mannerisms. The graciousness will come through quite effortlessly by itself, and people will like you for it. ... snobbishness on the other hand ... (cough ...)

[@billybobkingston5604]

Lady Veronica, a dying breed now.The poorer we are for it. Great British institutions.

[@kinkyplunk]

I quite agree

[@mariahcarey9470]

[@karlwood7014]

Couldn't imagine her arguing in jobcentre cos her benefit is a day late like the one eyed an legd shite that refuse to pass away these days. Class has been replaced by crass and will never recover from it.

Keith is always such a great watch

[@blipblip88]

I watched him as a kid, and loved how much he inspired my taste in food.

[@petebuck9889]

Absolute classic Floyd

[@TreeSawyer]

Watching this while eating salmon in this sauce with a glass of white is the way to do it. Feels like sitting there with them both.

[@vantheman1238]

Love how Lady Whatshername questions Floyd on his hat after he bullies the cameraman.

[@sylvanpeursum1264]

she can't help herself to ask him to remove his hat in the most polite fashion "do you always wear your hat indoors" then goes on to compliment his "magnificent hat"...

[@donalonzo63]

Sylvan Peursum That's scottishness for you, we are a very polite bunch.

[@666laughingtarget]

he's being rude to the cameraman as he's big gruff and she takes that away as take off that top hat i think. i would

I wonder if David Walliams was inspired by this lady to create his jam tasting / throwing up battle-axe 🤣

[@TheQuantumPotato]

At the risk of sounding like an arse-kisser, there's something about the decorum with which individuals of her birth and upbringing conduct themselves I find to be very admirable. I have met only a couple of Lords and Ladies in my time, but every time, they've shown respect and decency to everyone around them, with no discrimination towards social status or the like. Who knows, it might be an act, but I find the effort towards making people feel as if they're in the company of their peers quite commendable.

[@Akleptose]

@realsuperherodude is there anything wrong abt that?

[@mrmixalotcreative5847]

I have to laugh at how terrified they are of flavour. A single bay leaf, couple of peppercorns, splash of white wine, all in about 3 litres of water? Salt? oh no, fish doesn't need salt!

[@rmac8378]

When dealing with a product like wild scottish salmon, it’d be criminal to marinade, or throw spices on it, throw in endless herbs with it

[@theadventuresofjoelandjami7694]

@@rmac8378 I could not agree more, but some salt. Please, at very least, a good pinch of salt, twice as much wine, pepper and bay.

Another Scottish wild salmon search. go back to google foooooool! w e are here for the memorabilia!.

A type of show that would happen again only if the world comes to end, then restarts. Simple, candid, 0 posing and full of lovely nonsense. Someone, please end the PC police.

[@RomeoAlphaSierra]

What is there here that isn't PC? This is fantastic. and is entirely politically correct in every sense. The only reason you wouldn't see this nowadays is because styles and tastes have changed in television, as have television personalities. You don't need to try and blame everything on someone.

Thats more wrong than anything else You dont know if god has anything to do with it or not. And in fact, you might miss more TASTY things in life if you miss out on vegetarian dishes. Chew that real talk candy, cirgin

[@Jafmanz]

Big fan of floyd but if you manage to land a salmon in the rivers here then all you need to do it lay that salmon by the fire in foil and keep on basting it with butter and salt. anything else is barbaric!

Keith wasnt posh.

[@raidenwolfe6495]

i can't tell if this is a comedy bit or a real show 😶
