Listen "Fay Ripley"
Episode Synopsis
Ah, what a lovely time we had pottering in the garden with the brilliant Fay Ripley! A wonderful actor, brilliantly talented cookery book writer, and all-round lovely person! The umbrellas were out once more; however, as we filmed earlier in the autumn, it was pleasantly warm, so even in my Crocs I didn’t get 'cold feet'.
We chat about the joys of a British garden, the pitfalls of the pizza oven, and of course I show her my Jane Asher dressing-up book, just in time for some Halloween inspiration! Fay also very kindly explores my garden produce and shares a delicious recipe for an out-of-this-world tomato salad, so that’s certainly something to listen out for.
You can also watch each episode of Pottering on my YouTube channel. Just search for @tomallen.
So yes, it’s that time again. Pull up a chair, light that citronella candle, and let’s go Pottering.
