Excellent ! It’s so interesting to see historical food recipes.

Very interesting topic on how they made do with an available humble fish and turned it into something special. Really nice presenters too., without the loudmouths you see on a lot of KZread.

How lovely! Lessons for all ages: simple, healthful, fresh, and quick meals with lots of local organic foods.

I love this series!!

i love this show! thanks for the uploads!!

Hello Ms. Leeming. I just had to tell you how wonderful your videos are to me. As a double ticketed tradesman out here in the Colonies, bashing, grunting and slaving away at my trades through the day's work, I find it so absolutely relaxing and calming to watch your broadcasts after the days work. Oddly, I am also a classically trained pianist and have a pretty good ear for sound and I find that in addition to you being such a lovely, classy Lady, I have an affinity to people's voices. Your own voice and Ms. Veronica Shaw's, with that beautiful proper English accent is literally music to my ears. I also watch programs with other lovely ladies as hosts such as Delia Smith and Joanna Lumley. You are all such gems to humanity. Personally, I think all politicians should be women (Margaret Thatcher notwithstanding). I am sure the world would be vastly a much, much better place to live in. To me, a lovely lady's voice is the proverbial 'music to calm the savage beast'. I think of you all as a wingless bird would love his song.

John Pringle You are so right ..This is an old programme ..but is very appealing still .

Thank you so much for this. 💖

I wonder what shocked the anglers by the river more. The fact that he was wairing a period costume and using a stick or the fact that he actually greeted someone he didn't know in the London area.

Please bring this show back and never let it end. 💛

You forget that most of Europe is one big refridgerator most of the time :) Plus they usually have cellars under the house cold enough to freez ice cream and to preserve meats, veggies and fruits. They also used blocks of ice that were delivered by ice vendors,,,,for huge estates,they even build their own ice making/preserving storages away from the main house! However, what you see here is not the food of the average person,,,average persons did not afford wines nor oranges even for holiday meals!

I would have been great if they had put the recipes in the discrimination or even a link to Them.

Out of curiosity why are some uploads can't be shown in the UK? They seem to be Time Team. Is it copyright issues and this is the reason why you won't show them in the UK?

all those people saying carp tastes bad are stupid. yes it is a bottom feeding fish, yes it will taste muddy if you pull it out of the water and eat it straight away. keep them in clean water for a few days without food before you eat them and they will taste clean. for the love of god, people thousands of years ago were smart enough to understand that, get a grip.

They surely did not have ALUMINUM FOIL! Why not have left that lovely fish-dish uncovered in the oven? Or covered with a real cover. It is dangerous to have foil or plastic in direct contact with hot food as they produce chemicals that leach into whatever they touch.

Because the fish would have probably dried out. I bake salmon in foil... not too worried about it. I'm sure something else that we think is so healthy and great is doing us much more harm.

(3) With all of the liquids and herbs that were added to already moist fresh fish, there would be no drying out of the food. (4) Thanks for acknowledging that some materials such as plastic and aluminium foil (which is so soft that you can tear it), which visibly changes colour and texture during cooking, and produces noxious fumes, are dangerous to health and eventually fatal.
