I was going to recommend about two scant cups of faith for this recipe, but then I remembered what the Master Recipe Book says how much can be done with faith the size of a mustard grain. ;-) Potent stuff, that. So a pinch should be fine after all! 👼

Lord and lady Braybrooke do not prefer to be served with the head of the snake still intact, though it is a personal preference

Whatever the role, Kathy brings history to life. Would love to see her portray all sorts of times. Would it be possible to see her sidesaddle in the Tudor Period? I still, of course, love her portrayal of Mrs. Crocombe, as it was my first experience with this amazing actress. She just draws you in.

Fascinating! We have a very similar legend (but with a St. Keyna) in my hometown of Keynsham!

I love the Chaucer-like verse.

Best actress ever!!!!

Oh, I like this for a series. Folklore is always wonderful to read and learn about. We also get the historical background behind the myths and legends in this video format which is brilliant.

Quite grand to see Prof. Hutton again. I love the easy, gentle, way he shares his knowledge with us; sort of a British Mr. Rogers. And was that Peter Ginn out there driving the survey stake?

I love Kathy and she's lovely in this. I think she should just play every character.

Hey I went to St. Hildas Diocesan High School in Jamaica....I had no idea who she was but now I'm interested sml

St Hilda said to the local folks: Oh, hello! You gave me such a fright! It would have been a disaster if I drop this snake. Snake is one of the grandest animal to serve and is very popular with families like Mr and Lady Braybrook. I have read the Queen eats it quite regularly.

Mrs. Crocombe is indeed a time traveller!
