Delicious

With that cast and location should have been so much more. The acting I found mostly good and i'm interested in the food industry so another plus for me.

Cornwall is beautiful and the filming is good if a little pedestrian, Lots of scope for dramatic framing and stylish camera-work.

The story was good but I would have liked to see it developed more, especially Mimi and the son/daughter story and as was said above it was so so predictable. Reminds me of a daytime soap with very obvious plot lines delivered in a simple fashion. Great techniques for a younger audience, but given the content this was meant for a more mature audience.

Overall we enjoyed watching it and would recommend it for easy viewing.

Great photo shots of food and scenery. Good acting. Good writing. Great break from predictable drama filled with action scenes stuck into simply dumb down.

Well, it was cheesy, melodramatic, and insanely shallow. There were more twists and turns than a twisty turny thing. But after binge-watching all eight episodes, I did rather enjoy it!

Despite the ludicrous soap-opera dramatics, the soft-focus direction, and the annoying narration from a dead bloke the characters were interesting to watch and fun to follow. The beautiful local scenery was unfortunately underplayed here and we only get to see occasional glimpses of the fairy-tale English countryside.

It was as if a Jane Eyre book had been rewritten by school kids... who then took out the most realistic bits and added an annoying ghost!

But despite all the silliness, I don't regret watching it. This is one of those programs that I would normally love to rain hate on - but in the end, it was a rather charming and fluffy tale of truth and lies... and how they break people apart.

Dawn French is probably a bit past playing bedroom scenes by now, but here she is anyway, candles glowing and legs akimbo!

If you set aside ANY expectation of realism and common sense, there's still enough left on the screen to make this pretty good fun.

Each actor wrapped their part in love. At last! The talent of Dawn French has found a nest, a bespoke fit. Gina Benelli and her perfect counterpoint Samantha played masterfully by Emilia Fox kept the lines and the estrogen crackling. The soulful Teresa and the dapper Mimi rounded the ages of a gquick glimpse of every woman. Writing was excellent and fun. Personally, the weekly walk on of characters and side stories gets a touch predictable. One can forgive this though with the urge to look in on the deeply interesting characters.

When I first heard about this, and saw the trailers for it I pictured a series along the lines of The Lives and loves of a She Devil, not the case, it's a story of food and relationships, loves present and past.

Dawn French is always an advert for good television, and as always she does not disappoint. Emilia Fox plays the wronged wife beautifully, such a beautiful, talented actress, always good to see her in something away from Silent Witness.

Well produced, light hearted, nice music, and a strong cast make for enjoyable viewing. Sky 1 isn't always associated with making first class British drama, but I think Delicious shows that when they do it, they do it well.

Not exactly a gourmet meal, but a sweet treat nonetheless.
