Classic retro boozy trifle

I was having dinner out recently and ordered trifle. When it arrived it was a watery sludge and soo far from my group of friends memories. I decided then to recreate what we remembered eating back in the day. Here's what my great aunt would serve up on a Sunday. Nothing fancy but supa tasty.

Now add the custard leaving about a 2 centimetres clear of rim for cream.
