watching chef trials
she sounds so condescending and sometimes calling someone darling is clearly passive aggressive

She is horrendous I agree. Shockingly superior and rude.

Just finished punching myself in the face as I call everyone darling too.

I don't think it passive aggressive but I do reserve a special darling for people who are not deserving of my nice darlings. It leaves the recipient in no doubt that I think they are an arse.

Alex Polizzi can do no wrong for me, darling.

Sorry OP Grin

I'm sorry for spouting darlings ggirl

I can't help but like her. I thought she was a joy in the travel series she presented about Italy.

My special darlings are not passive anything and I really don't think that Ms P would be one to mince her words either. My darlings come from an inability to remember names. My grandma also called everyone darling but I suspect she did that because she was just lovely and not a forgetful old bat like me.

I dont object to a good Darling occasionally...

But hers are passive aggressive. She does the same thing Kirsty and Phil do- which is basically 'agree with me or I will roll my eyes to camera and treat you like an utter idiot'

I dislike the eye rolling when someone disagrees with her. Her hair annoys me. She inows what she is talking about however.!

That chef show is a crock though.

I love her too but hate her saying darling all the time. It's an affectation. Sir Dickie Attenborough used to do it and he said It was because he couldn't remember people's names
