In the British TV sitcom world, dinnerladies is a delicious, hearty and warming slice of pie. An award-winning pie baked by the late, great Victoria Wood, no less. As well as creating, writing and co-producing all 16 episodes of this late-90s classic, Wood also stars as Bren Furlong, deputy manager of the Manchester canteen in which dinnerladies takes place.

This understated show is a real who’s who of British acting legends, including Julie Walters, Celia Imrie, Maxine Peake and Thelma Barlow.

Tuck in.
