    She was a splendid individual and had something lacking in so many tv cooks today. Personality!! I met her and Johnny once and she really could not have been nicer. I know her style of cooking has dated terribly but so has that of every tv cook over time. Fashions change but she was the best in her heyday of the '50's and '60's.

      @@jamescrowther1234 There was an incident involving a Devonian woman, Gwen Troake, who in 1976 won a competition to have her menu featured at a high profile banquet. The programme involved was Esther Ranzen's THE BIG TIME and another aspect of the prize was for the winner to meet Fanny Cradock and discuss the menu. Cradock behaved badly and reduced Mrs Troake to nothing. It can be found on RUclips - try keying in "Gwen Troake Incident".
      What made it worse was that Mrs Troake died soon afterwards, but at the time the fuss - which still divides opinion today - was centred in part upon on her treatment of Mrs Troake but also upon her apparent or implied dismissal of English cooking. Watching the clip now I would say all went well until FC reacted to the idea of serving a seafood cocktail before duck with bramble jelly. That is where the problems start.
      My own view is that FC probably had a point in raising her eyebrows at the seafood cocktail, duckling with a lemon jelly-and-cornstarch fortified bramble sauce and coffee cream dessert with rum but the problem arose in her theatrical facial expressions, her dismissal of Cornish pasties with a mock-vomit and her erroneous claim that the Yorkshire pudding came originally from Burgundy. The publc reacted en masse, and the BBC terminated Fanny Cradock’s contract. She did occasionally appear as a guest on programmes thereafter, but it was very much in the “guest slot” capacity and as can be seen here, her health was clearly not the best by this time.

Maybe the presentation wasn’t tv perfection, but she knew how to fry chips and make perfect omelettes and all the things that make cooking less horrible. Love that she just says what she thinks and doesn’t care 😂

      +BLTKellys I think you take her too
      'literal', I mean she criticises people sure - but she also
      criticises herself. Listen carefully, and see what she says about
      Barbara Cartland who was a friend of hers. She said
      she was ‘over-done’ - she then adds ‘like me’. The real people to be wary of,
      are those who criticise others - but never themselves. These are
      self-righteous. People like Fanny and Barbara were certainly not
      that. They simply realised that we all have flaws and pointed them out
      others - just like people as yourself are eager to point out theirs!
      So you see, we're all the same really! :-)

    • @nintendy

      BLTKellys
      To be honest, if I were you, I’d spend more of my time and concern with the
      hypocritical world we live in today in the people around us; the
      constant outpouring of grief for total strangers in the form of tears and the
      laying of flowers at tragic events for people they don’t even know... There
      wouldn’t be anything wrong with that, but for the fact these same people
      wouldn’t even look in on a neighbour in case they had to do something to
      help... I remember hearing once of two women who cried and went to the funeral
      of an elderly man who’d been found dead in the flat above - yet in the three
      weeks prior, despite the milk building up on his step and admitting to thinking
      it strange, and not having seen him, they completely ignored it... He’d been
      dead for those three weeks - they hadn’t cared... Lovely people...

    To be fair to the woman, every syllable she uttered on The Big Time when she destroyed the amateur cook Gwen Troake, was true. Her menu was unbalanced and incredibly over-rich. Yet thanks to Rantzen and her lot, Cradock was sacked and hardly ever worked again, which is rich coming from Rantzen who not only got Bernard Braden sacked from his show by having an affair with the producer, Desmond Wilcox, and ended up with a programme called That's Life, God help us, but who also founded Childline which was designed to protect certain BBC stars more than the children. Cradock's food was incredibly ott and hideous for the most part but I'd sooner see her "Cooks For Christmas" series any day than Delia being "daring" by using one whole pot of cream in one recipe or Nigella giving us an R-rated performance massaging a leg of lamb.

Though he is American Rogers understood the cheeky humour and clearly enjoyed Wogan's jokes at his expense, even going on to make some great gags about himself. That was my favourite interview Wogan ever did, used to have it on video, but lost the tape about ten years ago.

    Why is everyone recalling her as a lovely person?
    She was a gruesome, condescending posh type.
    She relied on the fact that in the 60s and 70s, ordinary people assumed that such people were their 'betters' and had to be admired and obeyed.

      She really was not posh. Quite humble beginnings in Leytonstone. It was all a very carefully constructed persona. I don't think she was so bad either, she brought a tiny bit of glamour to drab, drab, drab Post War Britain.

      The attitude of 'they are your betters' is more the late 19th and early 20th century.
      Certainly wasn't the way the public thought in the 60s and 70s!

      If you look at Major johnny craddocks wiki page it says spouse. 1977- Void. Instead of -1987 when he died.
      Because they were never actually married.
      She was 'married' four times. Only 3 in reality.
      Her previous husband refused to grant a divorce probably to spite the evil bint so she changed her name by deed poll.
      She had already gone through bigamy after her second marriage.
      She was 20 years old in the great depression. Her family lost everything by 1932 and it really toughened her up but left her sour as old vinegar.

It was just the area near the counter because that had carpet on it, the rest of the shop was tiled so it wasn't such an issue there and she was quite slow by then so there was time before her reaching the counter to get a couple of layers down.
