Lol

Plus, if they're going for authenticity..

@@devinm.6149 The blood crust in between his fingernails from the chickens he snap the necks off of just add flavor.....

@@PACKERMAN2077 why are you telling me this?

@@devinm.6149 I was going for authenticity ...

I'll have some of the yeller🤣

That’s like Russian cooking

Ahahaha! I'm dying over that hairspray blowing in the wind. Great chunks of hair. And OMG, that girl-boss suit. 😂

Pottage. Lots of pottage. And by lots, I mean only...

@@mediocrates1937 Rosted rabbit, pork and bacone could also be served... assuming the resturant is made for well of traders, guild masters and the like.

She's trying to attract ghosts🤣

She goes to the same dress maker as the Queen.

Actually neon green was a really popular color in the 90s and again a few years ago.

Good

Don't look at it then.

Elzariel some people like that kind of green. And it’s more of a pale lime or pea purée 😂

@@ColonelBummleigh I say she looks like Cookie Kwan, the best, number one ladies real estate agent this Side of Shelbyville.

@@PACKERMAN2077 I like her.She's cool.

He is an actor called Christopher Farries…

There would be legitimate cultural importance in a person going around investigating and compiling ghost stories, tho

@@steveng2639 This video looks like it is from the late 1980s/very early 1990s, judging by the hairstyles of the host and another female, so it is great if this actor is still alive.

That depends on the more specific time and place. By the late 14th century (the particular time mentioned here) , trade was very much on the rise and was in the wake of the Black Death which lead to a significant spike in the relative value and thereby income of the lower classes on account of the sharp decline in available laborers. Traveling merchants and mercenaries would also stay at pubs as well, who could essentially be middle class. While this part is conjecture, I imagine that larger settlements might have multiple inns specializing in different types of clientel. As for the cost of spices-that depends, again, on the time, place and specific spice in question. Cumin is not particularly expensive; on the other hand, he mentioned saffron, which was more valuable than gold. Some spices could also be grown in Europe rather than imported (especially from India) , generally reducing their price considerably.

@@nevisysbryd7450 Trying to defend the indefensible are we?

During the Medieval period in Rye the majority of the local people struggled in poverty. It was a tax haven but was of little consequence to the poor. Much of what they produced went to the Crown and there was significant unrest among fishermen and the growers of barley, especially, who were frequently unable to consume their own produce. There is much on record showing the letters of correspondence pleading on their behalf for the allowance of provisions once the Crown's needs were met. Chicken was not commonly eaten, it was considered a luxury. You'd never kill an egg laying hen and deprive yourself of that food resource during that time period. Mutton, dead or on it's last legs, would have been more common with the renowned wool trade in Rye, but it was by no means plentiful.

P0GFLIPPER they have to add a male or 2

Call up a demon or two.

alex pendle i know, I want to know when it was aired. Her outfits are mental! But the film quality is good, while most tv shows like this from 80s looks dated. Maybe it’s been given a digital polish. Otherwise her outfits are fantastically anachronistic

I never saw this when it was on TV but it seems to have been made in 2000 judging by the end credits.

​@@ciarandurkan2110yes it says year 2000. Not 80s for sure. Looks late 90s.

I have it on good authority that an alien invented Fish Fingers And Custard.

Larry Scarr What's wrong with ghosts?? 👻👻👻👻

I thought u knew that

Exactly. Not to mention that it's unlikely for the pub to serve elaborate, time-consuming dishes.

Occasionally they would roast mutton and most of the other time it was salted /corned pork.. Rabbits and ells were cheap

Yea birds were only for the wealthiest. In Italy they actually said the poor would get sick if they eat things from high above ground. And visa versa for nobles.

I imagine it's a very _very_ ritzy pub.

Well, they did say that it was for wealthy merchants and travelers back then. This might have been a meal served for the wealthy inn guests, not really pub food, as is suggested.

I don't have a clue why they added that stupidity.

Roland Deschain 😂😂💯

You just need to join Futurama mate ;o)

wales007 this snow is from 19 years ago so maybe not

If by fantastic you mean misinformed and delusional...then sure!

Hey I'm from mass too!!

Not when I visited! Ghastly food! Good not believe it! Fly half way around the world and get food I would not give to a pig!

@@Saucyakld And you just....tried every restaurant and pub then? Lmao I mean if you tried a half dozen highly recommended ones and they were all trash, fine, but a lot of people go to a town, a state, or a whole nation and try one or two restaurants and just declare welp the food here is terrible : p

Yorkshire pudding did not impress me.

😂😂

2000 almost a quarter of a century ago !

@@glynischapman3044 thank you

Mermaid Inn

I do recommend "Cooking with Claire", immersing us in the Tudor diod style era :)

Damn Tommy! 😂😂😂😂

Why portrait a wench?

It was a Cornish hen.

@@SAnn-rf3oz I know

You're missing out. The ghost documentaries have the best dramatic reenactments.

Just like in the old times

Is it really that dangerous?

@@dextew69 yes.

I saw that too! I hope they just cut out the parts when he washed his hand for time sake.

Get over it.

@רבקה Thank you for having a sense of humour, I do, but one reply didn't hahaha!

@@Saucyakld its not really humour when your slagging off a country that alot of people here live in, the food in london is not as bad as you describe at all.
