Regency (1x6)

Air date: Jun 24, 2008

In this last programme in the series, Giles Coren and Sue Perkins spend a week on a diet spanning the Regency Years of 1789-1821. With Rosemary Shrager cooking for them at their country manor house, they enjoy the full trappings of the landed gentry. Dressing as a Jane Austen heroine, Sue is on a mission to find a husband, while Giles indulges in being a dandy. During their week they try boars head and salmon poached in Champagne. They discover the origins of the sandwich while gambling away their inheritance at the gaming tables.
