A Visit To Charles Dickens' Kitchen | A Cook Back In Time | Timeline 

The great grandson looks like his famous ancestor. What a heritage to have. So lovely

This is wonderful! I was friends with Cedric - many were! - but he dedicated another book, Christmas With Dickens, to me. He was such a dear man and a total character - out of central casting! His wife, Elizabeth, was so warm and lovely. This is a treat!

Dickens is my favorite author. Once you learn to read his works, you will find them absolutely astounding. What REAL writing is all about.

Cedric is absolutely charming :)

I'm shocked that Gad's Hill is not only not preserved as a museum, but is also a school! -- considering the opinion that Dickens had of those institutions. The discussion he would have with the headmistress would indeed be interesting.

Very interesting. Dickens has touch the lives of so many through his writing. Now I know how to make a plum pudding.

I wish they had made many more of this series, fascinating and fun little tips tricks and recipe ideas 💡

I have the Charles Dickens Cookbook. These are the recipes for the food mentioned in Dickens stories.

This should be a museum

I love this so much. Cedric is wonderful, as I would expect him to be. Also, that dinner looks amazing.

God bless us, every one!

WHOA. Wait a second!! That door... ( 2:25 ) Is encased with books!!! I want one! No!! I want *all* of my doors, to be encased with books.

Cedric was truly the life of the VIDEO and dinner!!!l wish l could've met him, charming chap, he is😉

Awe, there are 30K+ history nerds like me! This was a charming look into living history.

He must have had a wonderful recipe for Gruel. Oliver Twist wanted some more. 😁

What a great episode. Thanks! I'm a huge Dickens fan. I have to find Cedric's book and buy it.

Thanks for sharing a very interesting video. What a treat to meet and see the great grandson of Dickens! The meal looked and sounded delicious and love plum pudding even if it is a bit rich! This family watches the famous English film, A Christmas Carol 1951 with Alistair Sims every Christmas, the best one ever made imho!!

"Plum pood" was the highlight for me

What a lovely man. Wish I could have met him.

Lovely lovely Jan Leeming. Makes the program more pleasant to watch, interesting though it is

Lovely thank you! So much for the upload!

i wish for such a feature on the brontë sisters.

I love this in no small part due to the Blue Willow pieces!

Amazing Cedric! I am going to get his book.

No they had a mouil a food mill you turn hand and forces the vegetables though different sized holes

This was extremely a delightful video. I truely enjoyed this. 😊

You should have mentioned Catherine Dickens' cookbook "What shall we have for dinner".

I knew that a smoking bishop was a drink but I never thought I would see one made.

Such a shame about the rigid scripting and Jan Leeming's wooden delivery. Good old Cedric was the only person who was relaxed

I love history.

I felt honored at Cedrick’s reading.

magnificent.

I went to Charles dickens house in London its fantastic you have to pay to go in he wrote oliver twist in that house

The mention of a Debtors’ Prison scares me.

wow that stock's cloudy

Well done, thanks for that!

interesting show, I have a love-hate relationship with A Christmas Carol

Great show,love this series.

I always wondered how plumb pudding was made. I will try the recipe. Great video!

Wow totally enjoyed this

this is so charmingly 1990s i keep expecting it to turn into a creepy AR game. youtube has ruined my brain.

wonderful work!

The plum pudding reminds me of what we call fruitcake here in the USA. People make fun of fruitcake here in the USA, but I always loved it. I think I would love plum puddings too. The smoking Bishop looks like hot Sangria. Remember in Dickins A Christmas Carol Scrooge told his Clerk Bob Cratchit that he would talk with him about helping his family over a bowl of Smoking Bishop. Great history.

Wonderful!

Parsnip soup sounds god damn amazing, recipe please I beg you.

Lovely video! My only caveat: 75% - 80% of Mrs Beeton's recipes were plagiarized from Miss Eliza Acton's recipe books.

Makes me very hungry!!!

Thank you

Is it just me or does Ann Everitte (the head mistress) remind anyone else of Isobel on Downton Abbey? The way she speaks and moves.

He was so lively when the alcohol came in lol

Who is that in the video thumbnail? Looks like Timothy Dalton from Penny Dreadful.

Very interesting. Charles Dickens was an amazing writer he has and always will be among my favorites. The food looked spectacular as well except for the fact that I’m very allergic too both Almonds & Cloves. I enjoyed this video so much that I’ve subscribed.

After years of cooking and working as a chef, I'm still wondering why Americans say "Bring it to A boil" and the British say "Bring it to THE boil."

I would say he's fond of the wine . V

I need recipes for ale, tasty gruel, and dumplings in water.

cool show

Plum pudding. Not a dessert for the faint of heart; nor for someone w/ sugar or alcohol restrictions to their diet!! OOO wee.

Yeah you would think they would have had at least a prune or two.

Since a school boy I was often troubled by the recurring thought ˋwhat became of BBC newscaster Jan Leeming´ ? 🤔

@5:56 worried about the bloody crockery?? That's her main concern ???? wow.. just how cold is she? Damn!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cedric stole the show

You can not get more English then this 😄 love from Israel

13:23 Does anyone know what's in the middle bowl?

I've had Goose Liver - but not Goose - suppose it's like Duck. As much as I delight in Goose Liver - Carmelized, I DO NOT like liver in my Dressing/Stuffing! ...and it should include Celery. Where are the accompanying recipes? Like the Plum Pudding - Sedrich is Delightful - ...he must have some Irish in him - "Smoking Bishop" - quite the trait I so admire - that little Stinker with Passion that always captures my heart! 🍀❤🍀

Aluminium pots?

All the people of Dickens time should of eaten so good.

Dickens ???? WoW 👏🌝

The maid almost breaks her arm, gets treatment and a glass of port from the boss. What a nice bloke.

Yes, I will take some saltines and water, thank you.

Very interesting. I wonder if they wouldn't had de boned the goose when they use stuffing? As a chef I learned that you always de bone before using stuffing.

That drink was nothing but wine. 🍷 call that a mixer? Rich people, I swear 🙄

Пацаны, 11 б есть? Все на месте спортсмены!

What is suet ? I thought that bird food. Lol.

Dumb waiter: I'm gonna end the maid's career for once and all. Victorian staircase: Whoa! That was supposed to be my turn, not yours!

They just seem so boring, but I do enjoy this episode.

As soon as she said minced goose liver, I...was...out

You need a washtub to make that pudding.

What is single cream?

So, what vegans were supposed to eat?

Just saying, I don’t think in the days of Charles Dickens they had aluminum pots and pans. Other than that good.

who uses alumnium pots nowadays???? are those pots historical or modren?

Interesting that there were 6,666 views. Great video.

Regarding The Mystery of Edwin Drood, there's this. I read it, and is in the style of Charles Dickens. archive.org/details/mysteryedwindro01dickgoog

I think that I am in love with Jan Leeming. A very classy lady who bears a certain resemblance to Helen Mirren, my favorite actress.

Charles Dickens was English? Good show! Very interesting, but I felt kind of bad for Catherine Dickens whilst watching it.

💖💖💖💖💖

Dickens in the kitchen. Sounds like how my daughter was conceived.

Dickon Tarly :)

Bob Cratchit's family had turkey.... Not goose,,,,

Your goose is cooked 😉

Charles Dickens was horrible to his poor wife.

as a vegetarian im not sure why im watching, in detail, how they stuffed this poor goose

cute 😄

don't go to UK for the food please ...

' we''re gonna stuff it '

White as white gets. I like white people.

Brrriliant

do you know what annoys me , why should it be an honor to meet Cedric , he did nothing , his great grandfather did , its like saying its an honor to meet me because i descend from just about every royal house in europe , i have done nothing to deserve honoring , mind you i guess at least the later members of my family did nothing either , just like Charles' great grand son , hanging on to the shirt tails of the famous fore-bearers and not earning a place for themselves in history based on their actions , i never had any intentions of being famous or even infamous as some of my ancestors and cousins were, and for sure i am not willing to hang on shirt tails , so this name is not my legal name , though its my name rightfully too, no one will know who i am from it , even though i would say i would have gone to war had it been needed and if it was needed still i would , despite the fact i am 57 , after all we have longevity on our side in my family so 57 is not old , Cedric said his name meant too much was expected of him , lol , believe me , its not the name , too much is expected from all famous people off spring , especially those thats ancestor was Charlemagne

"Kay en" pepper? Blasphemous

So, a pudding is like a fruitcake? I know, I know, not the same, I didn't say that, no no no, it's just that they are similar, that's all. Pudding looks far more palatable than fruitcake I think.
