Thanks Phil, I used google images  but could not find anything like it.
and i did look for ages over a few weeks off/on.
The one i was after may be a little smaller but i want one :-)
If it comes as a smart dinner set i would consider that too.

Ah, interesting : you used Google Images, I used "Classic Google". I have always regarded myself as graphically illiterate, being unable to make head nor tail of any set of instructions (including so-called "accessible" aircraft safety instructions) that are expressed in pictures rather than words, so on seeing the image of the thing that you were seeking, my approach was to convert said image into a word or phrase, emphasising the key features.  To me, it was a <keywords>long-handled, pouring, china, white, ...</> and a few searches using those keywords led me to believe that I might have greater success if I included a noun such as "ladle", "jug" or (eventually) "gravy boat".  And those terms did indeed represent pay dirt, because first one, then two, then three, then many such items turned up (I reported only the first four).  So, being graphically challenged may mean that I really shouldn't claim the exit aisle on an aircraft (which I will nonetheless continue to do, having legs that don't fit behind a reclined economy-class seat), but on the other hand it can lead to fairly fast and rewarding "Classic Google" searches  :)

very good :-) does anyone know where i can get
the white small sauce cup/pot made at 4:46 sitting in the
centre of the clip. I have had it with mint sauce in it for starters
and its a great idea and easy to pour with instead of using spoons etc.

I have been after one for ages but could not find it anywhere
any suggestions welcome :-)

Ha Ha just seen the closing credits ;D

Hi Greame
I have the actual pan.
It came from Crosbys over in shieldfield.
www.crosbys.co.uk - They are basically trade, but the last time I was there, they seemed to be setting up a bit retail.
made by http://www.churchillchina.com/cuisineproductdetails.asp?productId=97
cheers Chewy

Ah, "Menu presentation pan" : that is what they are called.  2660 hits for that phrase, within the UK alone  :)

That's a good video and a catchy tune. Anyone know what it's called?
