The ever-lovely, quintessential Manhattan gal Sarah Jessica Parker appeared on Jonathan Ross’s new talk show in Britain last week. She discussed the Royal wedding, declaring she watched the proceedings with a cup of PG Tips, a packet of chocolate McVities and a sausage roll.

As a loyal T&S customer, we felt our reputation was somewhat staked on SJP getting this right. We weren’t disappointed as she immediately declared “I know what that is!” pointing jubilantly to a scotch egg.

SJP went on to talk about a British restaurant in Manhattan run by a female chef. As we waited with baited breath for a name check, Jonathan demonstrated his reputation for being a big mouth with a tendency to drown out his guests. After a few replays though, it seems Sarah is in fact refering to April Bloomfield, the extremely talented and deserving chef over at The Spotted Pig on West 11th.
