Who says too many cooks is a bad thing? Jeff & Ryan welcome the delightful Lesley Nicol to a special episode of MASH Matters. Lesley originated the role of Mrs. Patmore on the critically-acclaimed PBS series Downton Abbey. We discuss her journey to Downton Abbey, a slightly ominous encounter with an Oscar-winning actor, animal activism, her one-woman show, and whether or not she’s a good cook in real life. She also reveals her favorite Mrs. Patmore line and teaches us how to make a proper cup of tea. Plus, a special appearance by Ryan’s wife, Julie. Where else can you hear from two of TV’s most recognizable cooks on one podcast? Only on MASH Matters!
