Hi Lindsay
My Yorkshire puddings didn’t rise they came out flat. I used plain flour, eggs, salt, milk and water as per the recipe and hot oil

Hello,
I think everyone has or will make at least one flat Yorkshire pudding at some point.
The most common reason is that it isn’t hot enough. Sometimes because the oven door is open too long or the pan or fat isn’t hot enough before the batter is added.
Sometimes it’s because there is too much batter in the pan, sometimes because the pan is too large for the quantity of batter, and sometimes because the pan isn’t deep enough.
I presume you’ve watched the lesson here online.
Have another look and have another go.
Best wishes
Lindsey
