5. Recipe for My Very Favourite Cake
Sarah Millican reads from her memoir. Sarah shares a recipe for her favourite cake – aka a rescue plan for old bananas. From 2017.
Part-autobiography, part-self-help book, Sarah Millican's memoir is a funny, honest and sometimes outrageous account of how she went from being a quiet, bookish child to becoming one of Britain's most successful and best-loved comedians.
Wooden spoons at the ready... After making the earth-shattering discovery that old, dead bananas can be turned into delicious cake, Sarah searched for the perfect recipe for banana bread, "Millicanised" it and is happy to share it.
Written and read by Sarah Millican.
