Trivia:

Although the show was filmed on location in a house, the house's kitchens weren't suitable to use for filming. A company called Container Kitchen Systems was called in to provide a 'flat-packed' kitchen instead.

warm, witty and enriching

The perfect antidote to the avalanche of cookery programs - most of which try too hard to impress, rather than to entertain or inform.

Posh Nosh is almost entirely about attributing social status value to the preparation, presentation and consumption of food. However, we are also allowed a window to the private lives of these two fictional eccentrics.

Simon may be an arrogant pig, but Minty so values her stylish life as his partner that she chooses to ignore his all-too-apparent extra-marital appetite.

Posh Nosh is the most stylishly delivered and rewarding of very British humour, packed into 9 exquisite ten minute morsels.

Endlessly re-watchable and a joy to be shared proudly with family and friends.
