If anyone reading this does already have an English Rose kitchen I am looking to use one as a filming location for a couple of days for the BBC2 historical food programme ‘Supersizers Go…’. Of course, there would be a fee involved.

If you were interested, please call me on 02079073426 or email on nick.adey@silverriver.

managed to get a look at them today and they seem in good nick,apart from the lack of worktop and the scratches i made,(bugger) the runners are all in excelent condition. i think a good clean and the units should come up pukka.
bought some nice rocket style supataps off ebay today for the grand total of 99p to replace the newer ones that are there at the mo. result the older style can go for £180.
haha i need my own blog

cheers for that,i know what you mean im already looking at other kitchens for sale to get all the bits i want.
will keep you informed on progress. hoping to move into our new place sometime next month.already got the kitchen in their garage,(one of the perks about buying off friends, lol.) and want to crack on with it while im motivated.the base units were in an ok condition, till we scratched them on the way home. iv’e got some mates who are car sprayers so will prob go that route.but still need to have a good look at them.hoping to check them out over the weekend.

Thanks Neil.

Well of course the nature of this stuff is that you end up buying a lot more than you actually need, so I’ll have some bits left over at the end. Most of our stuff is STILL in my parents’ garage so this is from memory, but I think I have some end shelves there, though I can’t remember what colour. I’ll have a look next time I go over.

I agree though, you’d have thought there’d be more people chatting about it online and I’m quite surprised by the lack of comment and information. I’d be interested in your experiences painting it up, if that’s what you’re intending to do.

as a new convert to the joys of the english rose,(i went from never hearing of it. to aquiring a kitchen, fridge freezer and oven in a week. i am very impulsive lol.)
i wanted to say keep up the good work on the site.i was suprised at the lack of info online. i thought it would have a nice little community with people swapping tip offs and parts. but as yet your site is pretty much all ive found.
we only picked it all up on fri and got back in the dark and hav’nt had time to have a good look round it yet but it seems in quite good nick apart from the work surface is missing. all i’d like to add is the end shelves in red (so if you hear of any i’d really appreciate the nod)
cheers, neil
