A Bit of Fry & Laurie ran for four seasons on the BBC, featuring such regular routines as Tony Mercheson, sub-par superspy, and his boss Control; dimwitted yuppies John and Peter; and the ever-popular cocktail recipe, with Mr. Music.

Masterpiece Theatre: The Secret Life of Mrs. Beeton DVD

Just as Nigella Lawson and Martha Stewart have turned Americans and Britons into nations of wannabe domestic goddesses, the Victorians had their own preacher in the shape of Mrs. Isabella Beeton. How did a woman who couldn't cook produce the world's most famous recipe book? Dead by the age of 28, this cultural icon was not the matron Britons have been led to believe, but instead a sassy, feisty, and very talented journalist and editor.
