I think they've only got the 3 books with Mums Knows Best due out shortly.

There's quite a few recipes on their website:

Just a reminder that the new series starts on Tuesday at 8pm BBC2.

Maybe the recipes are all on their website then:money:

I think they are brilliant and very inventive, when it comes to cooking foreign food, as well as sticking to a lot of the "old" British recipes.

I saw it in Good Food mag.

The closest to me is Aldershot I think.

What is it, a cooking show?

I love foreign food, but the sort of run of the mill foreign food like Italian, French, Indian & Chinese.
I've been folowing their show, seen them in Translyvania & Portugal - that doesn't temp my taste buds:D

You could reserve all their books at the library, take them home, put your feet up to have a really good look through them and then buy the one you think you will most use. I was planning to buy Sarah Raven's Christmas book and decided to get it from the library first and as I already have lots of other cookbooks, I found there were only 3 recipes I really needed, plus how to make a festive garland from greenery from the garden so I just copied all those out and saved myself 25 quid.

The hairy bikers are great! but a friend of mine said they physicaly repulse her?!

I am trying poaching potatoes to mash rather than boiling - as suggested. I did browse one of their books but it seemed to be quite fussy unusal meat and ingredients? Or was that just me?!
