She was a television natural. Abrupt? Yes. Patronising? Absolutely. But totally engaging with the professionalism to fill the entire slot with her unscripted wisdom. Truly gifted. Thanks for sharing
She was an Edwardian living in the later part of the 20th century. I find her to be fascinating, she defied social norms of the times. Looking back she had a more positive contribution to helping Britain eat more rich foods following the second world war. Her work was informative and showed people how to cook who didn't know how to prepare these dishes.
Completely random as I was born jn 1990 but I love watching these videos to see what it was like back then. It seemed to be a much simpler time and I can't help feeling nostalgic for an era I never knew and will never experience. The fact that she's talking about the preparation of Christmas food just makes it even warmer and I feel so cosy and at home whenever I watch these.
@@kona702 It's frightening isn't it? I keep thinking the Millenium wasn't that long ago, but we're nearly a quarter of the way through the "new" century. I'm starting to get lines under my eyes and grey hair too 😩!
I was watching QI, and that exact quote is what led me to seek out Fanny. I'm a Canadian and love British panel shows, but was totally unaware of Fanny Cradock.
What does he know? Began his career as the most stuck up snob there was, now tries to present himself as an amusing eccentric (trying to be like Kenneth Williams) has ditched that ridiculous fake voice and adopted an even faker one.
I never understood the criticism of her skill. She’s a master! She gives the best bird carving lesson ever. Seriously! She made it look like child’s play.
Genuinely seems like people are only bashing her because of her appearance. I suppose her blunt demeanor is off-putting to those who are rude themselves with their passive-aggressive remarks -- we certainly wouldn't want someone to provide legitimate advice or criticism when necessary. It's just much better to sneer at them with subtlety as many people do today. Now if they want to remark on her skills, about the only criticism they might have of her in this video is the contamination of the honey jar. But we are all aware that back in the day, the majority of people didn't care about such things. Every other bit of it is useful advice with consideration of the limitations that people might face. As she said, getting proper poultry cutters is difficult, yet garden cutters do the same job. And perhaps it seems savage to the modern British or American cook, but cutters/shears/scissors are common tools in the kitchen in most other countries. To disregard them is probably what Fanny was alluding to with the husbands of the world, just a bit of ego insisting on doing something a difficult way that doesn't deliver the best result. I suppose it is just much better to spend half an hour doing the job of 3 minutes, risking the chance of cutting oneself for doing it poorly. And a severed thumb probably hurts a person a deal more than the catty remark she might press upon you for doing it the stupid way in the first place.
I love the fact that she says "It's alright, I've sterilized them", about the garden secateurs, which means they've obviously been used in the garden 😂
I know right! And let's nit forget that she doesn't wash her hands between preparing the turkey and dipping her hand in the honey and rubbing it all over the goose 😂😂😂😂
I remember dear Fanny from my childhood my mother watching ... she wasn't scary she was informative and authoritative in all the best ways .. What a star !!
"Fear of Fanny: How to Stuff Your Bird, Complete With Salmonella Sleeves. Be Sure to Use Your Hands on/in Everything!! Garden Tools Optional." I love this Broad. It saddens me that hardly anyone showed up to her Funeral!
Absolutely love this lady, eccentric yes, but marvellous. Excellent cook, sometimes they went wrong, but who hasn't made a mistake cooking. Even experts do. Way ahead of her time and underrated. We need this back on at Christmas. She can show modern cooks a lot. Rip Fanny we miss you and Johnny, love and use her books, to this day.❤Gill.
National treasure? Ugh think she is more remembered for the absolute snob, bigamist, mother who left her children…..she was a horrible person. Her own son called her evil.
I just love how, once she finished stabbing the goose with those forks, she launches them on to the counter with such ferocity. That was her Christmas gift to the sound man. Tinnitus 😂 Just love the divine Mrs C. I remember my mum buying a capon for Sunday lunch and I have never heard anyone mention it since, until now.
Green mash potatoe the wonderful 70’s lol but the best part is stabbing the bird and while you do it think of someone you don’t like 🤣🤣🤣 There will never be another Fanny Cradock!
It’s that time of year! The Fanny Cradock time of the year. I plan on finally make her White Christmas Cake and mincemeat if I get on it soon! Thanks so much for sharing with us all. ❤️🙏🎄 RIP Johnnie and Fanny!
yes she was scared STIFF about lubricating her dry bird. It's a wonder she had to loosen any skin at all...if shes a dry bird, you would suspect she already HAS loose skin XD, but you just simply shove mushrooms right up in her.
I absolutely love Fanny Cradock and her no-nonsense approach to everything. She made things look simple and attainable. You can update the presentation a bit but the basic recipes are good. The prep and cooking tips that she gave were amazing.
This woman holds a place in my heart. When I was six me and my brother used to watch her at my nans house. We loved it as well. I came back because im 13 now and she is just creepy😂
What a surprise! Practical, campy, hugely entertaining. Kept thinking of the poor cuffs on her pretty dress. Never saw a chicken carved that way before but it looks much easier - and the mushroom method looks like a good one. Need to go find some more Fanny Craddock :)
Unlike others I have zero nostalgia for the 70s (no jobs, crap wage etc), but I love watching this Christmas series, I can’t explain why, it’s just very compelling. Stock in the kettle, hands everywhere, the craving, the green piped potato and wtf is a capon? What’s not to love.
I like her a lot!😁 For 1975 she was very spicy tongue ( think of someoe that you’ve never really liked but you’re too well bred to tell what them what you think of them so you take it out on the goose and stab it all over!”) 😂 Making cooking therapeutic!🤣✌️ Makes it that much more funny that she comes across as a posh like person!
Fanny and Johnny used to stage cooking demonstrations at the Royal Albert Hall (and they were sell out events) back in the day. She's probably not the best cook ever, abrupt? Yes. Rude? Yes. But her recipes always worked and she did feel strongly that the average housewife had a budget to work with. So most recipes were cost effective...
Yes, it does actually work. The mushrooms are like squeezed sponges and release moisture in to the breast meat. Interesting though that when she’s carving the bird at the end, the peas on the platter (just inside the piped potatoes) look as if they’ve been boiled to death. They’re completely drained of colour!
Given some of the fights that get underway at Christmas some old lonely aunts are better off at home.......... Love this old time cooking and to this day no one makes a mess in the kitchen.... quite like i do.. Happy Christmas for 2018...
... a wonderful (although just a tad frightening) woman!... did you know she was credited with inventing the classic 'Prawn Cocktail' starter?.. that's pretty amazing
I was 3 when this was shown on tv , to young to remember at the time...ive watched a few episodes with shock 😂 ..all in good spirit and was intrigued to see a young Delia smith ...helping along the way
Fanny was born in 1909, so very much a piece of history here. It shows sometimes in her pronunciation of words such as "item". Very old fashioned, more upper class English way of pronouncing it.
At the end of one episode her husband(Johnny)urged viewers to try her pastry recipes.He actually said 'Goodnight,I do hope your doughnuts come out like Fanny's'.
I was born in 1964 and Fanny Craddock was often on telly when I was a child, but I only heard this story about 20 years ago, and no tape of it has ever surfaced, just as no tape of 'The bowler's Holding, the batsman's Willey' as ever been found. They are urban TV myths, like 'those' names in Captain Pugwash.
Preparing poultry while wearing puffball sleeves, stock in the kettle, secateurs, shoving your hand in the honey jar after handling the raw bird 😁Wonderful 😆
We were all a bit more resistant to germs then. Half our problems today are down to over cleaning and anti bacterial everything. Children now have no immunity to anything as they are not allowed to be.
Yes Fanny and let's not forget her husband Johnny, who always recommended a wine to go with the meal, I remember once watching the show and Fanny was making doughnuts, when she finished as always she handed over to Johnny, who came out with this " I hope all your doughnuts, will turn out like Fanny's !
Americans might not get that joke. In the UK the slang term "fanny" refers to a woman's "front hole." In the US, "fanny" refers to the rear-end of anyone, male or female.
I grew up pre refrigerators and rubber gloves we ate well all meats and veg were organic veg often home grown meats came from local farms. We were very healthy indeed
It's only a problem if you're going to use the honey for something else. If you're disposing of the remaining honey afterwards, which I think she certainly would have, it's the best method to use.
She was a television natural. Abrupt? Yes. Patronising? Absolutely. But totally engaging with the professionalism to fill the entire slot with her unscripted wisdom. Truly gifted.

Find these old clips so comforting to watch. A gentler more peaceful time when Christmas was very special.
As her husband John said, " No one can make Doughnuts like Fannies"
The stock in the kettle ends me every single time. Fanny is a legend.
Every fanny is a legend! 😉
My mum had the exact same kettle in the 1980s. 😂
@lolalouise9503 We had a whistling kettle back in the day 😀
I cooked two birds like this, and I am proud that they both looked like Fanny's.
That made me chuckle.🤣
You can't beat a Fanny single entendre!

That was the breeziest 14 minutes of a cooking program I’ve ever watched. Flew by. lol

Her Christmas pudding recipe is absolutely divine. If you ever get the chance to I'd highly recommend you make it.
I love the feeling of nostalgia I get as I watch these shows, brilliant
Thanks for these videos, I had never heard of this woman. I just watched Fear of Fanny, also on RUclips.
Before my time but by far the best TV chef ever. I love the superiority that she is able to project lol. Fantastic thanks for sharing the vid x

Nice to see a couple of Parkinson Cowans in use. She was a champion of cooking by gas and worked for gas boards at exhibitions.
Beastly job, this. lol. This is British, so…I have no choice, but to love it. 🥰
Double dipping into that honey jar while massaging a raw goose…classic.
C'mon, we've all done it....
😂😂😂😂😂...
That honey was bin material 😂
I won't be coming to yours for dinner lol
Honey is antibacterial. Salmonella and other animal pathogens cannot survive in honey.
Love her accent hehe I could listen to her for days
Fanny and Johnny used to stage cooking demonstrations at the Royal Albert Hall (and they were sell out events) back in the day. She's probably not the best cook ever, abrupt? Yes. Rude? Yes. But her recipes always worked and she did feel strongly that the average housewife had a budget to work with. So most recipes were cost effective...
what a character, love it!
I actually did the chicken with mushrooms under the skin- it's really good!
Yes, it does actually work. The mushrooms are like squeezed sponges and release moisture in to the breast meat.
Interesting though that when she’s carving the bird at the end, the peas on the platter (just inside the piped potatoes) look as if they’ve been boiled to death. They’re completely drained of colour!
it sounds good
She really was amazing!
Hooray for Fanny.
Nothing better than fanny at Christmas she supplied the Johnny
I love her disdain for "Pa"
I know I must’ve commented on these episodes over the years. I’m still here and teaching these techniques from Fanny!!
She is just pure chaos.... I love her 💞

That is one hell of a knife! Slicing through bone like butter
Sadly on all British streets now
... a wonderful (although just a tad frightening) woman!... did you know she was credited with inventing the classic 'Prawn Cocktail' starter?.. that's pretty amazing
Aaah hence her disapproval of Gwen Troake using a seafood cocktail as her starter.
Did she invent bramble jelly as well?
Haha now you mention it, prawn cocktail is totally something fanny would have devised.
I remember her showing off her kitchen. very impressive design as the cabinets were elevated on legs so which facilitated mopping the floor
I was 3 when this was shown on tv , to young to remember at the time...ive watched a few episodes with shock 😂 ..all in good spirit and was intrigued to see a young Delia smith ...helping along the way
It looks Raw ! I love her trifles though the house wife wants to come back now .
Fanny was born in 1909, so very much a piece of history here. It shows sometimes in her pronunciation of words such as "item". Very old fashioned, more upper class English way of pronouncing it.
"Do you see?" I haven't heard that usage for a long time.

Fanny showing us how to `lubricate a dry bird`. Splendid stuffing indeed. Merry Christmas all.
At the end of one episode her husband(Johnny)urged viewers to try her pastry recipes.He actually said 'Goodnight,I do hope your doughnuts come out like Fanny's'.
