Would you try this gravy? | Stacey Dooley | Dish Podcast

Nick and Angela celebrate Mother’s Day with the delightful Stacey Dooley at Dish HQ!

Journalist, TV presenter, and author, Stacey has spent over a decade telling powerful stories with Stacey Dooley Investigates, earning an MBE along the way. In 2018, she waltzed her way to victory on Strictly Come Dancing, where she also met her now long-term partner, Kevin Clifton. The couple welcomed their daughter, Minnie, in 2023, and Stacey’s latest book, Dear Minnie: Conversations with Remarkable Mothers, is out now.

Sipping on Shirley Temples and snacking on anchovies (plus a few of Stacey’s other favourite salty snacks), Angela plates up the ultimate Mother’s Day-inspired afternoon tea-style spread—featuring a puttanesca puff tart and Martha Collison’s moreish triple cheese scones. The experts at Waitrose pair this with a glass of Masi Campofiorin.

Stacey chats about family life, her three-P food philosophy, and—despite never having met him—her soft spot for Nick’s fiancé, Mesh.

More often than not, Angela's "Wooow" is disguised disgust 😂😂

[SheilaR.]

Angela's facial control here is everything. 😂😂😂

[Chibbykins]

Nick and Angela trying so hard to be like 'we listen and we don't judge' 😂

[jacobcourson]

Ms. Angela would never make anyone feel bad about the way they cook or prefer their food. 😇

[christianurena]

Angela said “wow” but the eyes were 👁️👁️

[JediofLove]

She was right. Angela was in fact appalled 😂

[lilsourmango]

I do love Angela’s hair and makeup here - so natural, so lovely ❤

[rossneil]

I don’t watch these I only watch the clips but I can only assume Angela went into the next room and screamed into a pillow after this

[billyb]

Angela looking at Stacy like my grandparents nodding along when my brother talks about his boyfriend. 😬😯😧

[ChrisLovesThisGame]

Not beating the English cooking allegations this time 😂😂

[ginasmith]

That head move was a total wtf for a quick second 😆

[auntie.histamine]

As an American (ugh sorry), this is my introduction to Stacy and she seems lovely and fun

[Lannie]

Angela is fighting demons in this one 😅

[shellymay-cutpastememories]

I enjoy how well Angela did with the repression of her absolute revulsion while listening to these cooking horror stories. ;)

[TuesdayNight]

Oxo cube? Chelsea mug? Bisto? I love this pod so much...always learning new terms.

[Womanfromearth]

Angela’s skin is glowing! Is it disrespectful to ask a chef her stature about skin care routine?

[conniebuggy]

I use the outer leaves, stalks, and stems from my green vegetables to make my gravy. When I pre-boil my potatoes, I throw them all in and then use the water to make the gravy.

[Sean-sixr]

Well Honestly I Am Exactly The Same As Miss Dooley I Love My Gravy Really Thick And Lumpy!...My Favourite 👍🎉😎

[aliceviewww]

Two stock cubes and bisto in one mug of water sounds so salty but I do love bisto
