I think "Heavy Cream" and "Double Cream" are much the same thing, but it is one of those ingredient names not used in the UK. Restaurant reviews are also very different, as over here, they are often being written for a national audience looking for entertainment, rather than a local audience who might actually go. Multiple reviewer visits are very rare.
Delia tries to be as foolproof as possible, and anything she publishes that doesn't work gets huge amounts of vitriol, which is another reason for the "assume nothing" attitude. And she likes food to be tasty, rather than just flashy, which is often a failing of celeb chefs
