''Here''s a book to savour'' - Mail on Sunday

Miles Jupp (News Quiz presenter, star of Rev, I''m Sorry I Haven''t a Clue and The Thick Of It) delves into the mind of his comedy creation Damien Trench - urbane food writer and protagonist of BBC Radio 4''s acclaimed sitcom In and Out of the Kitchen.

''You are though, aren''t you?'' she asked.

She seized me by both hands, pulled me towards her, and launched into a passionate monologue that covered a selection of dessert recipes that I had once offered up in print, her difficult relationship with soft cheeses and her husband''s irritable skin. So intense was her manner that it was extremely difficult to tell if she was scolding or praisi
