'DELICIOUS' TRAILER
DAWN FRENCH COMEDY SERIES
Speaking of good British stories, Sky One has released the first trailer for their new comedy series DELICIOUS which starts airing its four episodes this December starring popular comedian Dawn French alongside Iain Glen and Emilia Fox.
TROUBLE IS COOKING!
Set in the stunning Cornish countryside, DELICIOUS is a surprising and compelling story of love, heartbreak, food and female friendship. When your best friend is your husband's ex, can you ever really be friends or will your secrets eventually overwhelm you? Sensual and
passionate cook Gina (Dawn French) was once married to Leo
Vincent, a successful entrepreneur, chef and hotel owner, with whom she
has a daughter. Leo made his fortune from his exceptional Italian
cooking - a family tradition he inherited from his ex-wife - and runs
the idyllic Penrose Hotel in the Tamar Valley.
Since divorcing Gina, Leo's culinary
empire has continued to grow, with
the fruits of success now being shared with his new wife Sam. However,
Leo is keeping a secret which is set to upturn all of their lives. In a
friendship already born out of betrayal, Gina and Sam face the secrets
and scandal that will bind them together in the most unlikely of
circumstances.

Delicous looks good. I love Agatha Christie, but it's too bad they didn't pick a lesser known book. That one is so famous, we all know the twist!
ReplyDeleteBBC is picking up the lesser known books for series adaptations :) They are already planning six, if I remember the number correctly.
DeleteCan I have Penelope's dress?
ReplyDeleteif you have a place to wear it
DeleteI haven't read that Agatha Christie one- but I have read others by her. Looks like it will be exciting, even though I know it is one of her most popular books and a lot of people know the story. :)
ReplyDelete~Jess
it is probably her best known novel
DeleteDelicious sounds like one I would really enjoy. Love, heartbreak, food and female friendship. What's not to like here?
ReplyDeleteI love when they put food in anything and Dawn French is an amazing comedian!
DeleteWhat! They are making a film of that? Cool!
ReplyDelete-Kati
