I remember seeing a comedic cooking show with, I think, Richard E Grant. It was a man and wife, British, and they were very upper class and showing ‘fancy’ type cooking. They also obviously hated each other.  
What the heck was it called?

_Posh Nosh_, apparently. Looks like there are a couple clips on youtube.

Thanks to this show, I always embarrass my potatoes before adding them to a salad.

I was going to say “Rude Food” but that’s [something else](http://www.amazon.com/Rude-Food-David-Thorpe/dp/0345285522). Was on the right track, though.
