Niche

Nostalgic British food and thrift: forgotten meals, cheap dinners, old habits

Audience

Older British viewers nostalgic for 1950s-1980s Britain and people cooking on a tight budget; one top title addresses seniors living alone, and keywords stress UK nostalgia and working-class Britain (inferred from titles, keywords and the about text).

Avatar

• Realistic avatar
• The avatar is a photorealistic elderly woman with curly grey hair, glasses, a yellow cardigan and a floral collar in a retro kitchen with tea and coffee canisters. She does not recur in the thumbnails.

Format

A numbered list of 15-30 British dishes, habits or tricks on one theme (cheap dinners, workers' canteen meals, 1970s recipes), told in the first person as an older woman remembering, over food and period images.
