Porkpie

[Bora Natty]

I have a streaming service, this just showed up on. I noticed it didn't last long. Is it worth a watch. Ta!

For a moment there I thought you meant the pie, I was going to say don't bother I used to make them in a very well known factory.

Never heard of it, but might be worth a watch

I think this is a spin off from Desmonds , Porkpie , played by Ram John Holder, was a main character in that . You could watch a bit of Desmonds first and then decide about watching this.

Yes I remember it now, it was a spin off.

I remember Desmond's. Porkpie was one of Desmond's customers and he wore a pork pie hat.

When they're cut in half, they look like a disgusting quantity of congealed fat, and very little meat. Yuck!

I agree, not a fan of the jelly either! That said I've only every really tried cheap pork pies - perhaps if I had one of those home crafted ones from Melton Mowbray I may change my view.

I think you have to track down a decent butcher who makes their own

Umm I wouldn't be so sure! That's the factory I worked it.

The pork pie was succulently described in the "waist land" episode.

It was an expensive pie.

I never heard of Desmond's either. I guess this could be a new adventure for me.

Desmond's is good, a little dated now but well worth a watch.

 

[Bora Natty]

I haven't looked yet, but would anyone know where I can stream Desmond's? Maybe it would better to watch that and learn the character first, then watch Porkpie?

IF you can access www.dailymotion.com there are episodes on there.

They're on the Channel 4 player too...

Well, I downloaded an app we have here called Airy TV. I don't know if it's available to you there? It has a few decent things on it, but it's poorly laid out in my opinion. I happened to notice that Desmonds was on last night at 7:00. I watched the first episode and it wasn't my cup of tea, so I think I'll sack Porkpie..
