Tom praised his mother for being a “good cook” and making “totally normal, nice food”.
“My mother was a good cook. Totally normal, nice food, watching The Fall Guy with shepherd’s pie, you know. Shepherd’s pie and peas and The Fall Guy. Or The Dukes of Hazzard, or Metal Mickey, said Tom.
He praised his “mother’s roast chicken” adding that the family would get their peas and strawberries from the garden.
Tom recalled that he was met with a stern “no” when asking his mother for white bread leading him to go round his friend Jake’s house to have white bread and coke.

“Ice Magic! Birds Eye Chicken Pies! Butterscotch Angel Delight and huge variety packs of Monster Munch! We wanted it all, although my mother was fairly strict in what we were allowed.”
