Cooking Casseroles and Roasts with Fanny Cradock (1965) | BBC 

It is amazing that Fanny did all of this on live TV she was amazing .

Even as a wee boy i loved Fanny Cradock - She seemed so glamarous - She was glamarous - Wtched by millions in the UK - Perhaps not always so much for the cooking tips - It was the sheer hypnotic cabaret of it all that made it so entertaining - Escapism like you got watching a Hollywood movie - An amazing talented woman

What an absolute joy to find this. More please!! Thank you 😊 Fanny Cradock was just wonderful.

She was a great chef hands down but her personality was frightening and condescending however these are gold!!! Cooking in a tight dress and high heels, those were the days. ❤ Nothing beats a bit of Fanny, if you know what I mean.

Oh my, I have never seen this, isn't Fanny just fabulous? Would love to see more!

I’m a Julia Child fan for sure, so how did I miss this woman? She is great! 😊

Thing about Fanny is that she was a great teacher. She wasn't there to win friends. You work in any Escoffier inspired kitchen and there is no room for levity. Cooking cordon bleu is taking seriously. That's the way it is. Passion, flair and dedication. Her personality came from a terrible early life, read up on it. She started off selling from door to door...this requires a very strong personality, not taking no for an answer and being able to talk on the spot which is why she could do live shows for hundreds of people for hours. She was one in a million and should be cherished.

fantastic - a national treasure

Love this please put up more.

Omg!!! Thank you!! I wish you can find more of this videos and share them with us, this woman is gold!!! I just love her, she really knows how to Cook!!!

Wow she’s amazing

she seems somewhat more relaxed and friendly here, than in the Christmas series made 10 years later

“You can have those bits, now go away”

Please keep these footages coming. There must have been at least 40 in the BBC archives some are missing though.

2:50 Well, that is certainly one way of explaining what a bouquet garni is to a 1960s British audience.

Fantastic episode Great to see a newly found clip. Hope you can get more. Thanks for uploading.

May all your doughnuts turn out like Fanny's. From "Beyond our Ken". Fanny and Johnny Haddock.

Chomping on the crackling 😂 brilliant

Thank you for posting this.

Very classy cookshow thank you for sharing!

"Are the flames supposed to shoot out of the oven like that?" 😂😂😂

well! i always do my sausages in the oven! fanny would be proud!

David and his jaunty hat.

I see where Jennifer Paterson got a lot of her "flare" and bravura from.. FANNY CRADOCK!! The grand dame of British cookery!

The Margaret Thatcher of 60s cookery

This is amazing!

How did you find that? Good but thought most had been destroyed. Do you have more episodes? She seemed not so strict there.

Brilliant

I wonder if her booklets are available in any form online ?

I tried making doughnuts but they didn’t turn out like Fanny’s😅😅😅😅😅

Anyone else here after watching "Fear of Fanny"? 😂

How things have changed. I thought the shows she made with "Johnny" were the best... 😂😂😂😂😂😂

You'd think with the makeup, she thought they were going to be recording in the very defunct BAIRD studio! 🤭🤣

As a gay man, this is the only Fanny that makes me smile. She was hideous, intimidating, as fake as heck and her cooking was generally awful, but she was unmissable, totally Box Office and knew how to hit home.

The drink took its toll on her

You can't beat a bit of Fanny. Modern cooks/chefs quite boring on the whole!

That was a really weird ending.

Brits seem to have been well off compared to Americans as their casseroles, which Mrs. Cradock refers to as basic, start off with lots of meat. American casseroles are heavy with cream, cheese, milk and fried onions, veggies, usually no meat unless you're making lasagna.

Love it. She's absolutely diabolical! That "casserole" looks dreadful. Only to be outdone by the sweet & sour onions ... with sultanas. Fanny Cradock never met a raisin she didn't like.

she shaved her eyebrows off and drew them back on much higher ? 😲

I loved looking at a few minutes of this knowing that she ultimately crashed, lost her BBC contract and was hardly ever heard of again. The very first video I saw of this lady, just yesterday, turned me completely off. I thought she was uninviting, rude, and arrogant. So, I read up on her only to find out her story and how it ended for her. Boy what a fall from her throne she was on! That had to hurt badly.

This woman truly sends fear through me. Shes insanely scary... i dont even know what it is. She doesnt even look real lol

Fanny is a strong minded highly opinionated woman, who's often very amusing, with plenty of useful tips & tricks for impressive entertaining. That aside I wasn't impressed by (12:20) her handling of raw sausages to then grab a cloth to wipe her fingers, to then touch raw liver & onions, this doesn't view well in front of millions.

Awful!!!
