From The Secret Garden

Fanny Cradock is back from beyond the grave with some timely Christmas cooking tips.

This video uses real audio from the original TV chef – albeit with the sort of edits that would make Donald Trump very angry – but with new video.

It comes from The Secret Garden – the comedy duo of Alison Ward, as recently seen in Smoggie Queens, and Jonny Roberts, the co-creator of cult BBC Three series Big Field.

The pair said: ‘Pop on the tinsel, pour a sherry, and enjoy… because it wouldn’t be Christmas without Fanny!’

The Secret Garden have made similar Cradock Cooks videos before, but this is their first in a year.
