Fear of Fanny

Fanny Cradock, Britain's postwar television chef, conjures a world of exquisite dishes and impeccable manners on screen. Her cooking show is a performance where every gesture is polished and every word rings with finality. Behind the flawless facade lies a tyrannical perfectionism that corrodes her closest relationships. Fanny's career traces a meteoric rise to fame and a very public downfall, where the recipes for success are laced with ambition, fear, and profound loneliness.
