Tea Making Tips (1941)
Welcome to the world of a national obsession and a place where people say ‘orf’ instead of ‘off’. Tea connoisseurs will benefit from the six golden tips for making the perfect cuppa, as well as countless other handy hints (never store your tea next to cheese, for example). There’s an assessment of the pros and cons of various teapots and words of wisdom about the tea bush itself.
Slightly grotesque methods for producing tea en masse are demonstrated – it was wartime, after all – and tea had to be produced by the oceanful. As such, there are some top tips for cleaning that hard-to-reach tap in your tea urn. Remember: “a dirty tap means dirty tea”. (Robin Baker)

This just make’s me laugh! Don’t get me wrong, I love a good cup of tea and there is nothing worse then a bad cup, ( Actually, there are lots of things worse then a bad cup of tea but I only have a certain amount of characters, so the option of telling you in full all the many things that are worse, just isn’t feasible to do right here and now because as I said, there are other things worse then a bad cup of tea. So let’s get right to why I think that this flick is, Damn! Ran out of characters.
