Richard Briers

Cookery writer Nigel Slater met actor Richard Briers for a retrospective of his life through favourite recipes.

Nigel Slater met veteran British actor, Richard Briers, and discovered that he has a history of ruining boiled eggs; a fact that resulted in a boiled egg cook-off between Nigel and Richard!

Richard's wife revisited the first meal Richard ever cooked for her when they met as young actors, and old friend and colleague, Prunela Scales, dropped in to make her famous crème brûlée. Meanwhile, Richard revealed a penchant for Indian food and a good old-fashioned sweet tooth for puddings.
