Hello and welcome to Table Manners. I'm Jessie Ware and I'm without my mother today. However, I have a wonderful episode for you coming up, which is our highlights, tasty morsels, second helpings, a little extra of some of our favourite or funniest moments in the podcast over the last few years. We've been so lucky to have so many wonderful guests, but all of these moments just needed a second airing because they were too good to miss. And hey, maybe you haven't even listened to the first episodes and then you can go back. We are having, I guess, a little break for the couple of weeks

and this is why we are giving you a couple of episodes of Tasty Morsels, all the best bits, rolled into two episodes until we're back for the new season because let's face it the last season went on and on and on just like covid so we wanted to have a little bit break and we'll be back in a couple of weeks with new guests we've lined up some amazing guests for the new series and we can't wait to be back in person with people it was so nice to have melcy in the flesh and so yeah we can't wait to do that again but whilst you wait for that here is episode one of table manners extra helping

oh and forgive me guys i managed to get a summer cold whilst i was away so that is why i'm a little bit mariella frost drop today but first up is rick Astley who came over last autumn for a bit of afternoon tea and some walnut and chai pumpkin cake which was very moist and here it is Rick Astley on Table Manners actually you know what it's it's it I hate the word it's moist oh moist if you only knew. What? Oh, my God, tell me. Are you about to say something about moist? Well, I have fans who hold up cards that say moist.

Oh, my God. What? Why? That's disgusting. That is a really weird way to say that they're really enjoying your show. No, it's because. You know when you're on stage and you say something a bit, not weird, but just comes out of your mouth and you think,

what the, why the... Yeah, I do that all the time, yeah. Okay. So, I don't know where we were, and it was raining, and I said, oh my God, you poor people, you know, you must be soaked. Are you wet? And it just came out and it said moist. And I just burst out laughing, and my band,

and I look right at Simon playing drums, and he's just falling apart, and I look right at Simon playing drums. And he's just falling apart. And I'm just thinking, oh, my God. And then sure enough, like a week later or wherever we were later, and someone had come to the gig again. And the whole day. That is a really unfortunate. It is.

But it's also, it's like a really old way of describing that condition, if it is a condition. Do you know what I mean? A condition. I don't know what it is, but it's condition do you know what i mean or just i don't know what it is but it's oh no you know what i mean let's move on moist cake it's terrible word moist it really is a disgusting word i absolutely can't stand it however it was a great cake talking of cakes here is an embarrassing moment with david schwimmer um also known as uh

ross from friends who we made an exception for we went to a hotel to record an episode with him we've never done that before but you do that for david schwimmer don't you and it was going quite politely until the very last moment when we were about to get cut off or he was about to go and do another press junket and well ross geller came out really. Let's go. This is David Schwimmer on Dr. Alex's banana bread. We need to offer you some cake. You don't have to eat it right now. You can take it home.

You can keep it. Did you make it? No, my son made it. Oh, her son, the doctor. My son's a doctor.

Did I mention this? What kind of cake is it? It's a banana cake. I love banana cake. We usually would have offered you, made you delicious food. So this is our offering. You can share it with all these people.

Oh, that would be lovely. Here, I'll get it. It's just that. No, you don't have to eat it. You also don't have to eat it now and go, mmm, it's delicious. But it's there. It's for you in this hard time of press junkets and promo.

Yeah, it smells. It's got chocolate bits in it as well. Oh, right. So it's banana chocolate cake. Yeah. All right. And is it... I hope it's all right.

So it's not like banana chocolate bread. It's like banana bread. We call it banana bread. And you know what would be really good on that? Do you want honest feedback? Oh, my God. I'm just saying it's dry. It looks a bit dry to me.

Do you want honest feedback? I'm telling you, Jess. Or am I supposed to pretend it's the most amazing... It looks dry as hell. Well, I went in deeper. Toast it. It'll be fine a bit dry to me. Do you want honest feedback or am I supposed to pretend it's the most amazing? It looks dry as hell, mum. I went in deeper. Dry. It's drier than I... Jesse, it's dry.

Steady on. Come on, then. It's drier than I make. Fine. Now let's do the taste test. Because he's given up smoking, so he's bad-tempered. Oh, my God. he's smelling it. It's dry. Jessica! I didn't make it.

Talk to Alex, then. Well, I didn't make it either. I've never served dry, bloody banana toast. Also, I mean... It's not that dry. It's dry. The problem is there's not enough banana. There's not enough banana. Jesse, this is not that dry.

You would have eaten it. It's dry. It's dry. I have to say, you can barely taste banana. Fuck it up. He's really gone wrong. You could have eaten it a whole meal. Well, I'm a specialist in banana bread and banana cake.

Now we fucking know. It's that dry. It could also be that, what kind of bananas are you using? You know what it is. What kind of bananas are you using? They weren't overripe. Yeah, that was the problem. I think that's the problem.

Also, look at where the chips are. They're all the way at the bottom. All the chocolate's on the bottom. Well, that's not there. This is riddled. David, look. What is that? I've never seen that in my life.

This is a bit of a chip and honor bread. Jesse, I'm really embarrassed now. Alex obviously didn't follow the recipe. You guys, come on. My son is an anesthetist. You should be embarrassed. You should be embarrassed. Look at that. We'm really embarrassed now. Alex obviously didn't follow the recipe. You guys, come on. My son is an anaesthetist. You should be embarrassed. You should be embarrassed. Look at that.

We're really embarrassed. What is that? For fuck's sake. My God. What is that? That's a chip. That was chocolate. Those aren't chocolate chips.

They weren't chocolate chips. We broke divine chocolate into it. I'm not going to lie. Look at that. He was resentful when I asked him to make it. There's one piece of chocolate in this. That's a fuck you to me. That is.

That was not made with love. That's just the worst. Jessica, he'll be so upset. I think he will start smoking again. Oh, stop it. It's actually really miserable. I'm not going to lie. And I'm really glad that we brought him service. Well, we're going to throw it away.

That was a shame. I schlepped that. I schlepped that to the back I appreciate that I didn't make it what you do get to keep is a tea towel from us

okay thank you as an apology for the mediocre it's got table manners on it thank you I love that if it was me right

if I'd cooked that she'd be like Jessica you've ruined it because it's Alex the doctor it's fine he's fine he can be forgiven he saves lives he's saving lives all day yeah fine he's fine he can be given he's saving lives all

day yeah so he's a little tired and taking one today did you notice how quick mum and I are to pass the buck onto poor Alex um yeah I feel like maybe we feel a bit more sorry for him after all COVID but yeah it was a crap banana cake but the recipe is usually completely faultless and brilliant. And we've had so many people send in pictures of them making Dr. Alex's banana bread. Actually, there was somebody who made me laugh so much on Twitter the other day. I've got to, let me find it. This is a shout out to Tom.

Elstro, at Elstro 1988. This is a picture of the excellent and can i even say moist banana bread this is what tom says celebrating the fact that after three weeks of naughty weekends and scale avoidance i've only gained a paltry two pounds by making jesse wares or her brother's famous banana bread from table manners well i think two pounds is absolutely nothing and i think you should make a bit more tom so that wasn't the only time that our food offerings have been completely rinsed. I had my own moment. And I feel like it's only fair to balance the scales by showing, well, the queen of disco, Irish queen of disco and groove and house and excellence in style. This is style icon Roisin Murphy, one of my favourite people, who came round for a raucous evening in May 2019. I love it. She said she wasn't going to drink. She said she wasn't going to drink. She said, yeah, no. And then she absolutely drunk and then

rinsed my, what was it, a rhubarb fall, which was perfectly nice. I love Roisin to death but this did crack me up. Hello and welcome to Table Manners. I'm Jessie Ware and I present this podcast with my dear mother Lenny. Hi. We're six series in and the relationship is stronger than ever I'd say mum. I think so. We cook for a guest and we ask kind of food memories and it can go everywhere and anywhere the conversation. So tonight we have Roisin Murphy. Now I'm not going to lie this intro was recorded after this guest arrived because she arrived an hour early. Wow were you ready? Was I ready? I was feeding my daughter food and still preparing the food that she was going to eat and hadn't had a shower for the day.

So this is not how I wanted to meet one of my style icons in Adidas running shoes and leggings. Do you think she minded? I just wondered whether she would have been more impressed with the outfit that I thought I was going to put on. I thought she was a health visitor when I walked in. impressed with the outfit that I thought I was going to put on. She was a health visitor when I walked in.

She had the baby and was looking kind of in charge. I did. She says, hello. And I said, well, hi. Didn't you see? I thought, why would I know? I didn't know what she looked like. And she wasn't singing Bring It Back.

Mum, do you think our guests, do you think when Ed Sheeran was on, he was going, love of the sheep of you. No, no, no, but that's how I would have identified her. I thought she was the health visitor. Got it. Note to Roisin, when you go to a stranger's house, you have to come in singing the Maloco song, the remix. Your partner is Italian. He is. And he does the cooking. He's the man for the remix. Your partner is Italian.

He is. And he does the cooking. He's the man for the cooking, yeah. How lucky are you? I know. You really... I've done it. Yeah, well done.

Yeah. What's his dish? He's from Milan, right? So, you know, a lot of sort of kind of what you would think of as Italian cooking is not what he does, you know? He doesn't do...

I mean, they use a lot of butter, for example, in northern Italy. And, oh, he does cuttoletta milanese, which is like a very flattened... Like a schnitzel. Like schnitzel, veal schnitzel, yeah. Veal, veal, milanese. But nicer than schnitzel, I think. So what does he do with the breadcrumbs, like the topping?

Well, he buys the breadcrumbs. Yeah. Yeah, and it's really about how long he beats his meat, if you know what I mean. Oh, wow. That's what she said. He's a lovely big Italian man. He can often be found beating his meat in my kitchen. An Italian beating his meat. Oh, he's a lovely big Italian man. He can often be found beating his meat in my kitchen.

An Italian beating his meat. Oh, he's a lovely big fella as well. He's over six foot tall. What are you cooking there? Oh, it's just chips. Have you just done chips for me? Do all that fancy stuff for other people? Do you think I'm some kind of Irish traveller or something?

Let me please let... You've got to have chips and eggs. So, no, basically i've done the chips because my mate nick who's one of the best cooks they're not even fried chips you've got the chips in the oven i'm so sorry we don't like them fried fuck i'm so sorry so what we're having if you would uh let me finish thanks roshi well he put i'm a bit embarrassed now because it's kind of mom you said to do the fucking chips actually i was like maybe we should do a truffled celeriac. Would that have suited you better?

No, it's tagliata, which is an Italian. So it's basically steak, but you chop it. Tagliata means cut, I think. We do that in our house. Okay, so, and you do it kind of in the pan and then you put garlic and rosemary and lemon juice. And you chop it and you pour all the juices on the top i think you'll like it so jesse said i'll do mashed potato i said no i didn't say mashed potato

he said celeriac truffled celeriac because i wanted to make an effort and mum's and then my friend nick does these chips that are amazing so he gave me the recipe i was like fucking chip so i've got these cypress potatoes and i tried them out yesterday on my daughter and they didn't work so i mean how much oh it sounds anyway they're fucking chips and i'm really sorry and it's a green salad and then i've done and then i've done a really come down with me um pudding i love you guys thanks to al sorry we were like i was fretting about what to make it's a rhubarb fool and i'm gonna crumble a bit of ginger snap on the top i'm cringing as i speak and i've tried two different ones piss off mom she's a design icon no i am a rhubarb fool that's exactly what i am i am cringing but i hope it tastes nice

look i'm not a pudding person mum was working day. I feel like you've been given the short straw. I'm going to be honest, this is not. You're eating it though. I didn't eat anything. Oh, okay. Well, you know what? And that is why I leave desserts to mum. Listen, I'm blaming Alice.

She told me to do it. It is come down with me. You don't have to eat all of it. It's very come down with me, isn't it? I want to cry. But maybe that's kind of retro now no you're not finding inspiration you're not going to do a video of you with a rhubarb how do you like it look i quite like it because i love cream look it is it's not beautiful it's not

visually aesthetic i'm really sorry and i'm blaming my nightly pulse on I do yeah normally well just finish your glass of wine you're mad as a lovely rooibos piss off Roisin no

look you're eating it you're fucking eating it so there you go I really like it it's not great you should have done the chicken it's a bit babish

isn't it a little bit baby sort of food yeah like his first weaning food. Give it to the child, you might sure. I said to you. I said to you I'd do a pudding. Mum, you said that you couldn't because you were working.

I could have done it this morning. Listen, I've got some cheese for you if you prefer that. No, but I like this. I think you're being harsh. It's nice. I think this is all right. it's like you could have it for breakfast or something. It's not versatile like the egg, Roisin. The only thing, I will eat absolutely anything. Apart from my fucking food.

The only thing, apart from your fucking food. The only thing that I have not eaten, it's a good story actually. I was in Paris one day and went to this fancy restaurant. It said, this is a sausage rye to the waiter. And he said, yes, it's andouillette. It's a speciality. I said, OK, I'll have that. He says, are you sure you really want that?

I started laughing and said, I will eat anything. Just bring it, just bring it to me like now. And he's chuckling away at me, laughing away at me. I'm thinking, you can laugh all you like, but I'll eat anything. Just bring it. Just bring it to me like now. And he's chuckling away at me, laughing away at me. I'm thinking, you can laugh all you like, but I'll eat anything. Nobody has ever stopped me eating anything ever. And it's a fucking sausage. Right. So you're thinking.

So bring it on. So out he comes. He's laughing when he comes out with the fucking sausage. It's big. Lovely big. You know, your ideal sausage size basically big one and I looked out looks fabulous so get me knife and fork out chop it in half slight smell of sewage somehow I don't know I think okay that's fine it's probably just French

I'll eat anything so put it up in your mouth. Really smells of shit. Right. Start chewing it. And really start feeling sick because it actually is like eating shit. It actually is. Why? Let me tell you, when you cut into this particular andouillette sausage, it's not sausage meat inside.

What is it? Shit. It's innards. More folds of innards. So it's just folds. So it's where the shit has passed through. It's all the pipes. Oh, shit.

Like jammed into another pipe. Why the fuck do they serve it? Why would you, anyone want to eat it? They like it. Shit, it's not. I said this to my partner, and he's Italian. He's Northern Italian, not too far from France. And he said, yeah, it can be quite nice, the smell of shit.

What? I was like, are you out of your tiny trip mind? Anyway, I started to go green, grey, and I really tried. Did you finish it like the bush tucker trial? I'd made a big deal. I'd made a big deal. I ate everything and the man was laughing at me. I? I'd made a big deal. I'd made a big... Everything. And the man was laughing at me.

I didn't want to laugh at me. He comes back over. I'm completely green. Green. Like, well, light green. Yeah, mint green. That's the colour of my face. And the man comes over and he goes,

you don't like it, do you? He's laughing. I'm going, no, no. Actually, I just don't like it. Please take it away. He took it away and he gave me another dish for free because he found it also very, very, very funny. Would you eat snails? Yes.

She'll eat anything, even shit. Well, I tried to eat shit. Yeah, you tried to eat shit. I did try my best. I really tried and I think he really responded to that, the old Parisian guy. Everyone struggled with a sausage in their time, have they not? What a right we have with Roisin. And I think he really responded to that, the old Parisian guy. Everyone's struggled with a sausage in their time, have they not?

What a riot we have with Roisin. Thank you so much, Roisin. You know what? As we pass the buck on to Dr. Alex, I do have to say that that was actually a Nigel Slater rebuffle recipe. So just putting it out there. I'm just throwing Nigel under the bus too. So now one of the perks of the job is that we get to meet some of the most wonderful people

that we've been admiring from afar. And Lenny admits to loving being objectified. She says it quite a lot, but she was also guilty of objectifying most of our guests, especially the boys. From suggesting Liam Payne strip for a photo down to his little jockstrap to telling John Bishop that his smile is dazzling

darling here she is making Anthony from Queer Eye Blush we give all our guests a tea towel which I'm sure you'll be using a lot and this is how we this is what I do on the show oh oh my god you're gonna have me in the photo like that oh Jesus Christ giving me heart palpitations running in for content with my messed up t-shirt I really screwed this up I could probably get that clean if you want to

take it off don't even just saying and here we are run and I'm blushing again no I wasn't I'm blushing

no I didn't mean to like that it's the perfect ending I was blushing when I walked in and now I'm blushing as we wrap in. Yeah, but I could do it. I can't. I'm the queen of washing.

Oh, you are? Yeah, yeah. And I get stains off everything. But I didn't mean it like that. It's a bit like the Coca-Cola advert. That was Anthony from Queer Eye, a real-life Disney prince. He had the whole team in a flutter. We had to include this next clip with the gorgeous actress Hayley Squires,

who had come all the way from Kent on the train for dinner. She's a friend of mine, a lover. She's one of the most brilliant actresses. And we really wanted to impress with a creme brulee. But before I say what we all know as creme brulee gate, Hayley actually bought a cake herself, which was fantastic. We love you, Hayley. So yes, our creme brulee,

we definitely should have practiced using the blowtorch first. However, it made excellent content. So here is blowtorch brulee gate with Hayley Squires. Mum's got the soap. I've just bought a blowtorch from a shop down the road. I thought you were going to say something else there.

A blowjob. Mum, please. Fucking hell. Have you used one of these before, Jessie?? Well I turned it on just to test it. Right. And now I can't get it back on so this is not panning out. Oh my god. I'm going to do this away from you. For fuck's sake. Oh my god Jessie, oh my god. Is it coming out?

Oh! Okay, got it. No. Oh my god. Jessie, gently. You're supposed to be gentle. No, Jessie, you're not doing it right. Leave me! It's too strong, darling. It's crepe roulette.

It's burnt fucking crepe. You need to turn it down. Turn it down. Jessica, turn it down. All right, I'll turn it down. I'm going to turn it down. I'm going to turn it down. I'm going to turn it down.

I'm going to turn it down. I'm going to turn it down. I'm going to turn it down. I'm going to turn it down. I'm going to turn it down. I'm going to turn it down. I'm going to turn it down. I'm it's burnt fucking crepe! You need to turn it down! Turn it down! Jessica, turn it down! It smells nice.

I don't mind it a bit brulee. No, it's supposed to be... Oh it's on fire, blow it out. Lily, are you alright? I'm going to blowtorch you. You both promise me you're not going to use that again. No, we're not going to use that again. You're 20 quads. I'm going to blowtorch you. I'm going to blowtorch you. I'm going to blowtorch you. I'm going to blowtorch you.

I'm going to blowtorch you. I'm going to blowtorch you. I'm going to blowtorch you. I'm going to blowtorch you. I'm going to blowtorch you. I I'm gonna blowtorch you. Oh, don't! Can you both promise me you're not gonna use that again? No, we're not gonna use that again. £20!

Okay, so basically, there was nearly a health and safety issue where I got the blowtorch and I will be sending it back tomorrow because it just set my mum's hand alight. Basically, her hand was going to be like Freddy Krueger. So now we've put them in the grill. So who knows if the old... It was quite fun, that blowtorch, for a while. It's cracked. It's cracked. See, so it is properly bruleed. I don't think I've had cream.

Jesus, I need a whiskey. Oh, do you drink whiskey, Lenny? No. I think we all needed a whiskey after that absolutely up next is a clip from one of our live Edinburgh shows the fabulous comedian London Hughes I think no one has made my mum silent however London did with her filthy mouth and it was on it was amazing i love london she is brilliant she needs to come back from la because she's having too much of a lovely time there she's always in the beverly hills hotel eating some lobster roll or something and then we need you back london london misses you this is london hughes talking about jewish people and what we can and can't eat okay if we do a

christmas special will you do it oh what is there going to be turkey and chick and gammon? Yeah, the whole thing. No, not gammon. Why not Jewish? What, Jewish people can't eat gammon? No. No, but they shouldn't also. Well, they can't really, but we do it again.

We do it at Christmas, but whatever. Why can't you have gammon? It's pork. Pigs. No! Yeah. Okay. It's all right.

I've never had it. Is it because they're scavengers? No, they're not very clean pigs. Hold on, you've never had gammon right. I've never had it. Is it because they're scavengers? No, they're not very clean. Hold on, you've never had gammon? Yeah, we've had it. No, I've never had gammon. But you're not allowed. Mum says, no, we're Jews.

She has prosciutto in the fridge all the time. Okay. I didn't know Jews people couldn't eat gammon. I love how sad you look for us. I feel so upset. Because I had a friend, she's Jamaican and Jewish, she's Jew-macon? I love how sad you look for us. I feel so upset. Because I had a friend, she's Jamaican and Jewish, she's Jew-Macon.

Jew-Macon. She's Jew-Macon. And I didn't know she was out here not eating gammon. I need to call her to make sure she's okay. But she probably

is eating gammon. Yeah. It's just not like, which, yeah, I mean, mum, you've definitely got prawns and prosciutto in your fridge.

I have. Okay, so why does... Gods are forgiving. Why does Jewish, why can't you eat pork in the Jewish religion? It's just, it has something to do with their hooves, I have. Okay, so why does Jewish... Why can't you eat pork in the Jewish religion? It's something to do with their hooves, I think. Oh, really? My cousin Deborah will tell us.

Are there any Jews in the audience? Oh, hold on, my cousin, one sec. I like star people, Debs. Hold on a minute. Hold on a minute. Can't eat anything that doesn't chew the cud and have cloven hooves. Say that again.

Chew the cud. So they keep chewing and chewing and chewing and regurgitating their food and they have cloven hooves. That's why they taste so nice, though. They're letting it marinate in them. Is that why you can't eat it? Yeah.

Oh, wow. And shellfish as well. What's wrong with shellfish? Well, I'm not quite sure. They're scavengers of the sea. Scavengers of the sea? They eat all the shit at the bottom. Oh, my God.

Cousin Deborah, thank you so much. Oh, my God. Have you got any, because I feel like, because you've got so much content. Content. Any memorable date meals? Because I feel like you, I mean, there was this amazing, I don't want to give everything away,

but there's this amazing picnic that she has with a heroin user. You've got to listen. Yeah, anyway. But have you had any other memorable... Date meals. Any other memorable dates? The dates? Food-wise.

Food-wise, let me think. I think, with me on dates, I literally, I'm like a dude. And I like to be like, I'm ordering this, and I don't mind paying. Even though I should have paid. I don't think women should pay pay because I can see it costs more than your whole outfit. So why am I paying?

You pay. But anyway, I decided that I'm going to pay and I'm going to get loads of food. But I had a date with a vegan. I'm sorry, are there any vegans? I'm sorry. Are there any vegans? I respect your decisions. I respect your decisions, Mark.

I lost so many of my friends to veganism last year. Like, so many of my friends. And we used to hang out and go to places and eat. And then they became vegan. I know, it's terrible. And we couldn't... Where could we go? It's terrible.

Jessie, what could we do? Sorry, mate, you don't know. Where could you go out? She can't handle... Can't deal with it. Can't deal with it? It's just traumatic for me. Do you know the...

You were fine. You used to eat pork. What happened? What went wrong? And I feel like I can't get them out of it. They're just in that vegan bubble and they hang out with all their vegans. They call it a V-gang.

A V-gang. I'm in the V-gang. It's like I can't... I've lost... Sorry, it's traumatic. It's triggering. But I... I went on a date with a vegan

and it was just... What could we do? Where did you go? We went to this really fancy restaurant that looked like it wasn't vegan. Yeah. And looked like I could eat the shit there. And then all the shit there was just lentils.

Everything was lentils. Everything's lentils. And I was just like, this is not... Did you not have a second date? No! I respect myself too much. I've got one life to live. I'm not going to have my life flash back before my eyes

and just see lentils and hummus. I'm not doing that shit. One life to live, you know. One life, mum. Don't eat plants. Sorry if there's any vegans here. No, they're too scared to put their hands up. I'm sure there's some vegetarians.

I'm sure there's veggies. Oh, my God. Wow. Well, there's one. Wow, this is... He's so tired. He's not. Wow. Well, there's one. Wow. He's so tired. He's not getting enough protein. So he was like, oh.

I'm a veggie. This is my type of crowd, Jess. Oh, my God. I'm here. I have to say, mum is getting better about vegans and vegetarians slowly slowly but surely and we have just been in Greece and eaten some incredible vegetarian food which probably all our guests are going to be getting in the next couple of weeks but last autumn we had the Heim sisters my Jewish sistren from Los Angeles the valley they came around for some chicken soup because they were over here on a promo thing and they just need a little bit of Jewish love. And we all know that mum loves a sing-along and what

better group to do it with than the Chaim girls. And when we had our like family band when we would like just kind of play on the weekends and my dad would like basically I think dad really just wanted us to like not get into trouble so he's like yeah on the weekends we have to rehearse you know. So I told you how I thought every every family had a band growing up did your parents ever play with you like the sound of music yeah but they turn the same yeah I also fleet with Mac a lot of Eagles and a lot of eagles.
