In this nostalgic two-parter we chart the transformation of the British kitchen from the 1950s to the present day. TV chefs including Phil Vickery and Ken Hom, and design experts and historians reveal the trends and social changes that shaped the look and design of our kitchens over the decades.
Celebrities Janet Ellis, Danny John-Jules and Jenny Eclair road-test the must-have gadgets of the day, from the Kenwood Chef to the Spiralizer, discovering which should grace our countertops and which should be shoved to the back of the kitchen cupboard.
Plus, we discover the adverts that sold us everything from flat-pack kitchens to the Breville sandwich toaster, and we reveal how the kitchen was represented in the sitcoms of yesteryear.
