Jennifer Paterson
LONDON - TV cook Jennifer Paterson, one of the ""Two Fat Ladies" who joyfully salted their recipes with political incorrectness, died Tuesday. She was 71 and had lung cancer.
Miss Paterson fell ill in July during filming of ""Two Fat Ladies," a cooking show starring the colorful chefs.
Perfectly happy to be plump, the women toured the country on Miss Paterson's old Triumph motorcycle - she in the driving seat and Clarissa Dickson Wright, in Red Baron-style helmet, squeezed into the sidecar.
They went from one cooking job to the next, chortling and trading wry quips about food, love and life and happily loading their food with butter and cream.
Miss Dickson Wright once called the program ""a cookery show with anarchy and a motorbike."
The chain-smoking Miss Paterson, often filmed with a cigarette clamped firmly in her mouth, spoke with an upper-class accent and boomed out her opinions at will.
The program appears in the United States, both on public television and on cable stations.
