Join the inimitable Dame Mary Berry in conversation with Gaby Huddart as she celebrates both her 90th birthday and the release of her latest book, Mary 90.
Beloved across the UK and beyond, Dame Mary Berry is a national treasure whose warmth, expertise and unmistakable charm have inspired generations of cooks. Whether you know her as the discerning judge from The Great British Bake Off and Best Home Cook, or have whipped up delights from one of her more than 80 bestselling cookbooks, Dame Mary’s influence on all our kitchens is immeasurable.
Now, step inside her extraordinary six-decade career as she shares personal stories, treasured memories, and the secrets behind her culinary success. From training at Le Cordon Bleu in Paris and the Bath School of Home Economics, to her pioneering role as cookery editor at Housewife magazine, and her rise to television stardom—Mary will bring her journey vividly to life as she talks with Gaby.
This promises to be an evening brimming with heart-warming anecdotes, practical baking wisdom, trademark humour—and absolutely no soggy bottoms.
Mary’s brand-new cookbook, Mary 90 —featuring 90 of her most iconic fuss-free recipes —will be published in October from BBC Books to coincide with a major new BBC TV series.
