Two Fat Ladies S04E03 Timber!

[@catherine59226]

We sure do miss these two! ❤️👍🏻

[@calamityj3634]

What I really loved about this show was how it took us to so many wonderful places and showed so many wonderful aspects of British life including Gurkhas and nuns lumberjacks and lock keepers ..beer makers and barristers And that beautiful final scene in the Cambridge rowers episode as they float along the river against a gently setting English sunset ..Great memories , great ladies ...

[@windhammer1237]

I didn't get to watch these when they first came out. But they are definitely a treat to watch now.

[@susannorman4476]

I agree about the scenery.beautiful!

[@susanroberts7907]

I never missed a show. I love watching them as much now as then.

[@anneperry9014]

"No, but I'm good with a whip". Clarissa remark. Brilliant!!😂

[@davidshep45]

The best cooking show in history. I never missed an episode. I loved them both equally. They are missed.

[@Jae..9..]

Jennifer: What I’m going to do now, is cover them with cream. Clarissa: What, the lumberjacks? Lol I miss these two souls.

[@oxanawilde4803]

I can watch them endlessly, both for the culinary and entertainment value, have tried many a recipe of theirs and loved, greatly missed, Ladies

[@josephdunn5131]

Just the fact that they sang The Lumberjack Song (ala Monty Python) makes me respect them more than I already did.

[@Knappa22]

Clarissa looks particularly lovely in this episode. Her hairdo has feathered flicks, and that green blouse is beautiful.

[@lennypearl]

Jennifer: Guess what I'm gonna do now...cover them in cream. Clarissa: What, the lumberjacks? I love this exchange! 😂😂😂

[@jukes243]

Thank you for sharing these episodes. Love these ladies. They make me smile every time.

[@carolesmith4864]

What a gorgeous fishing spot. Clarissa was quite smitten by the handsome fisherman. I love these two ladies. I can't think of any cooking show I like better than theirs. I love Julia Child, and she could be quite funny, too.

[@jitaamesuluma9730]

really classy ? just because they are upper middle class ?because i am sure they would have told you like me , private school can not make you a lady if you do not want it to, they lived disgracefully most of their lives and enjoyed every second , they had sweet natures, but by no means ladies so no not classy , just great fun

I must say dear Clarissa that I do love that wonderful combination of greens of your dress. So beautiful.

[@Knappa22]

Clarissa says in her autobiography that she bought all her dresses for TFL in the same shop. I agree with you - she always looked lovely. The yellow blouse she wore in the Lighthouse episode was very nice. Also the patterned ones in Lock-keepers and Afternoon Tea. My favourite was the red floral one in the Food in the Wild episode.

[@carolynholody9281]

I love when they talk about the “pope’s nose”, and Jennifer says it was probably meant to be rude or heretical or something, and Clarissa says, oh I know that it’s rude, I was just wondering what brand of rude it was! That made me chuckle!😆

[@littleblackpistol]

That bright green really suits Clarissa. She looks so nice this episode.

So true. And Jennifer would always be at home in any urban location e.g when they cooked for the Westminster priests or for the Brazil ambassadress in Mayfair.

[@TheMaxou92]

[@Cheryltwin2012]

[@janethayes5941]

These ladies were always open to adventure.

[@jilleven67]

"Cover them with creme" ..."The Lumberjacks?"..🤣

[@BlooMKunKy]

RE salt baking. If you mix the salt with egg white (albumen) then it helps to mould it around the fish or anything else you want to salt bake. It helps cracking it open when it's cooked too.

[@letzigstudio]

It is wonderful to see Jennifer & Clarissa's uncensored personalties on display. Especially when Jennifer happily wanders off-topic...and the next thing you know she's belting out a song. British treasures, the both of them.

[@roymacalma5998]

"What a pretty lineup." LOL

[@lindseyjones4290]

I used to use ordinary butter with fish but I must say"Burre Blanc" beat it all as a butter sauce. Miss the two fat ladies along with their cooking, songs and "ditties".

[@peternicholson233]

That's not a croft- that's luxury! Love these old gals, thumbing their noses at PC nonsense. Live life, enjoy yourself, try not to hurt others. Should others take offence, their problem. Oh, and more butter.

[@fallensway855]

Peter Nicholson haha I agree. I've loved these ladies since the first time I saw them (many a moon ago)

[@conniecharley9092]

Watched these ladies for years they can be funny and serious.. they sure know how to cook. They are so cute how they get around with one in the side car. Wish they could cook for me they are so good at it....this is amazing show with 2 ladies showing us how to put it together to cook and come out will it looks good..

[@ziriyab]

Sooo good to see this again. Thank you! And Jennifer, you were absolutely correct....both my Grandad and his sister had all their teeth taken out then dentures fitted for their 21st birthdays! Seems madness nowadays!

[@Tonithenightowl]

I would watch them make fillet of sole using a boot lol When Jennifer started singing the Lumberjack song by Monty Python ... hysterical. For me, it's not so much what they cook or bake but that it's THEM doing it. Loved it !!!

[@briandelaney9710]

My favorite was when Jennifer tried to kiss the ring of the Irish abbess and the abbess told her that her that all those things were part of the past and Jennifer responded “Not with ME it hasn’t!!!” I could have kissed her !

[@TVHouseHistorian]

Watching expert chefs such as Clarissa and Jennifer, you soon realize what a science cooking is. It's fascinating. I want to try all their recipes.

I didn't realise in the 90s that Jennifer is pissed as arseholes in this episode. Clarissa looks very annoyed with her for it at times. Brilliant.

[@Cheryltwin2012]

You would never see ladies like these on the Food Network these days. For one, they don't look like starlets and they cook with far too much fat. Also they use cuts of meat and certain things like livers and hearts that are too (shall we say) "rustic" for the picky American palate. Can you imagine one of those guys asking "What's this?" and Clarissa saying "I picked it off the side of the road this morning"? An American would faint LOL.

[@astrangeone]

Lol. These ladies are fun and they cook with everything! I'm Canadian Chinese, so we do tend to eat every part of the animal.

[@lennypearl]

Really? Food Network introduced them to us in the US back in the late 90s! I moved from the States in 2003, so I don't know what's on the channel nowadays, but info on the Ladies and some of their recipes are on the Food Network website

[@kconrad5893]

[@openskies11]

I assure you, there are many rural Americans who eat wild plants they've foraged. Less all the time, but we're still around. ;)

[@chrissanburn1510]

There's a bit of truth to this. But I did watch these wonderful ladies on the Food Channel back in the 90s. They and Emeril Lugasse were the first two shows I watched when I got a Directv satellite dish and Two Fat Ladies were my favorite of the shows offered back then. There are a few Americans, like me, who will forage things to eat on our own. I've gathered morel mushrooms, black raspberries, gooseberries, mulberries and paw paws.

[@iwasglad122]

The bit about reaching 21 and having all your teeth taken out as a present is absolutely true. It did happen, but not just in Scotland. The 'victim' would have all their teeth removed by a dentist and once their gums had healed from the extractions they would be fitted with sets of false teeth - part of the birthday present. They were now set for a lifetime enjoying all kinds of sugary foods without a second of cavity dental pain.
