This series has challenged one British family to dine through the decades, lifting the cooking pot lid on how eating habits for UK households have changed dramatically since World War II. For two-and-a-half months last summer, the Robshaw family rolled back the years to find out exactly how they would have eaten as a family living in each of the post-war decades in the 20th century. The results, to be screened later this month on BBC2's Back in Time for Dinner programme, were fascinating - if not occasionally stomach churning. Stepping into a different dining room for each decade, the Robshaws - dad Brandon, mum Rochelle and children Miranda, 17; Rosalind, 15 and Fred 10 - lived through how menus have changed.
A British family experiences 1950s life, including a diet of dried eggs, dripping and liver prepared in a basic kitchen.
The family and their home are transported to the space-age 60s, with a gleaming fitted kitchen and the arrival of a host of new tastes and flavours.
The family and their home strut into the 70s, and culinary innovations from powdered orange juice to boil-in-the-bag cod come thick and fast.
The family and their home are transported to the hi-tech 80s, with a gadget-filled kitchen including a microwave the size of a small car.
The Robshaw family enter the 90s. Giles Coren and food historian Polly Russell introduce them to the culinary treats of the era.
After six weeks of culinary time travel, the Robshaw family are thrown forward as presenter Giles Coren and food historian Polly Russell introduce them to some startling tastes of the future.Based on the family's experience of the way our food history has unfurled, some predictions are made about how we'll shop, cook and eat over the next 50 years.
