The Supersizers Go... Elizabethan

 

Tue 17 Jun, 9:00 pm - 10:00 pm 60mins

 

Restaurant Critic Giles Coren and writer and performer Sue Perkins spend a week going back to the food of Elizabeth I and William Shakespeare. Cooking for them at home is top chef Paul Merrett. Giles puts on his codpiece and Sue makes up like Queen Bess.

 

The duo discover the joys of sheep's head decorated with offal, the dish that bleeds and leaping frog pie. Giles tries some cupping and Sue learns the lute. With so many exciting foods to try out from the New World, the intrepid Supersizers find out how healthy the Elizabethan diet was.

[Mrs Frugal]

I can just see Christian watching this one from behind the sofa .

[The Dogmother]

Shall I send Biscuit over? He's always bringing frogs in!

[Christian]

Thanks Cinnamon

 

I saw the trailer for the sheep's head and frog pie. The sheep's head made me heave, but the pie sent me running

 

Don't think I will be tuning in

[Egluntyne]

You wouldn't have liked the comb and chicken head pie a few weeks ago then.

 

They struggled to eat it.

[The Dogmother]

I can't understand cooking anything like that - surely there's not enough meat on it.

[Egluntyne]

There were heaps of them.

 

I notice they didn't mention where they had sourced them from.

 

I have my suspicions.

 

Let's just say it won't be on the menu at Egluntine Towers any time soon.

Hmmm, dont you mean leaping? Like a frog?

[The Dogmother]

I can just see him racing around the living room in his pinny now

 

Quick Emma, get the camera out!

[Christian]

I didn't watch it, had to shoot off and lock the girls in for the night

 

Can I lock this topic now??

[Egluntyne]

At least they weren't eaten.

[Lesley]

No - they just hopped around the table to frighten the girls and make them squeal!

[Keanie Bean]

Poor Christian, your all being wicked . It sounds revolting more like one of those I'm a celebrity things

Arrggggh help! I was expecting a sort of big hearty meat pie - but frogs! That has really freaked me out as Christian & myself share the same phobia!!

Hubby put me off pre bagged salad yesterday, saying that a lady bought a bag from Sainsburys & a frog jumped out upon opening the bag! Not a big frog, but a frog all the same. That would have been enough to give me a heart attack, I seriously hyperv ntilate at the sight of a frog, even the croaking noise gets me going.

In Thailand, we took a short cut through some gardens & over an ornamental bridge. I heard croaking & that was it, my breathing was all out of sync - my mum couldn't believe it! If I went that way again, I had to walk with my fingers in my ears! But most of the time I avoided that route.

Awful things phobias.
