5.0 out of 5 stars Best of British cooks, June 3, 2006

This review is from: Two Fat Ladies Volumes 1-5 Boxed Set [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I'm with the first reviewer - when are the DVDs coming out? Of all the cooking shows I've ever watched, this was the most entertaining and it features fabulous recipes to boot. If Jennifer Patterson had not departed this world for the great culinary cook-off in the sky, I'm certain the series would still be going strong. On top of the ladies' big personalities and deliciously sly humor, one also gets to meet and know quirky and compelling characters all over a splendidly photographed Britain.

5.0 out of 5 stars Where is the DVD version?, July 7, 2006

Apparently, a lucrative enough deal has not been made to bring Two Fat Ladies to DVD. If there is demand for any product, you can rest assured that it will be available sometime....... So when is it going to be time for the DVD? We TFL fans are probably not 12-24 year old boys, so it might be a while....

Spilling the BeansTWO FAT LADIES RIDE AGAINTHE TWO FAT LADIES FULL THROTTLE.Cooking with the Two Fat LadiesThis incredibly entertaining and informative VHS set has not been available for quite a while and I have been (along with other reviewers, clearly) waiting for the collection to be produced in DVD format. Sadly, there is no sign of that anytime soon in the US, if at all. HOWEVER, if you have a Universal DVD player - the Brits are releasing it on Oct 8, 2007. Go to <<Amazon.co.uk>> to order IF you can play Region 2 DVDs. Otherwise, we shall just have to wait. It appears as if it includes a tribute to Jennifer Paterson as well as most likely the same shows available on the VHS 5 Boxed Set. I own the set on VHS and still enjoy it from time to time, along with the cookbooks by Jennifer and Clarissa. Clarissa has continued on producing various books and her autobiography is due this Fall in the UK "Spilling the Beans". You can ask to be alerted when it is avaialble on Amazon.com (US) by clicking on a link after you type in the title. Anyway, let's all hope this means a DVD of the famous fat duo will soon be available here!
