The Perfect Cup of Tea

I came across this short BFI film from 1941 this week and thought it deserved a share! All the golden rules of tea-making are in here.

"Don't spoil good tea by bad preparation."

  1. Jenny, this is a gem of a find! From the moment the music started up I was smiling. And why is that man with the frightening eyebrows fondling the tea when he says it's so delicate?! Off to share this with a few fellow tea suppers! x

    1. I thought you'd appreciate it! That man is quite sinister for someone who is supposed to be extolling the virtues of tea. I wouldn't want him to catch me using twice-boiled water or scouring my tea urn with steel wool! x

  2. Thanks for sharing - this is brilliant (if a little sinister at times, yes).
