Here’s top tips on how to make the perfect cup of tea.
This film, from 1941, is the latest in the series of fims we have been highlighting from the treasure trove that is the British Film Institute (BFI) National Archive.
The tips are spot on; always use freshly boiled water, warm the pot, etc but just one thing that we think’s missing; don’t forget to stir the pot once just after you’ve poured the water in.
What’s also great about these archive films is listening in to the historic accents, whereby even your lowly charlady sounds posher than a present day Dame.
