The Galloping Gourmet (1968)
TV Show
First aired
The opening and closing of any episode, taped in Ottawa, 1968 to 1972
Graham Kerr runs onto the set and leaps over a dining chair, a stunt his wife and producer Treena Kerr dreamed up, then cooks in front of a live audience at CJOH-TV. The famous sip of wine was mostly a cue for the director to cut to commercials; he called it a "short slurp" and drank very little. At the end he brings an audience member up to share the dish. Watch it for the lesson that cooking for guests should feel like a party, not an exam. There is no official streaming release, but reruns have aired in the US on Food Network and Cooking Channel.
