Episode 4

Mary has always adored entertaining and pulls out some of her finest classics that will leave any guest begging for the next invitation - be it a romantic meal for two or hosting a big meal for friends and family. From her divine dover sole cooked to perfection, a genius way to make beetroot gravadlax and a sticky chicken recipe that will have them knocking down the doors, to an ambitious crispy roast duck and a simple but exquisite raspberry mousse. For a look at the extreme ways one can decorate to entertain, Mary travels to Leeds Castle with acclaimed florist Simon Lycett as he prepares for this year's Festival of Flowers. Bringing Henry VIII's Banquet Hall to life he shows Mary that too much is in fact never enough!
