I'm just watching the repeat. I have to say this is a great programme, except for the bit where they are poisoning people with arsenic laced sweets !!! 

 

I wonder if they will mention Thorntons started here in Sheffield. Although they are more famous for chocolate, they do a wide range of toffee products.

 

WOW - that egg, fish and other molds.
