Cinnamon Posted June 17, 2008 Author Share Posted June 17, 2008 He he - trying to find a picture 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christian Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 You wouldn't have liked the comb and chicken head pie a few weeks ago then. They struggled to eat it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 I can't understand cooking anything like that - surely there's not enough meat on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craftyhunnypie Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 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.
