I cannot stick that Gordon

Kathyis6incheshigh · 21/08/2007 20:53

was he having trouble with a blocked vacuum cleaner?

Heathcliffscathy · 21/08/2007 20:56

that he was walked in on late one night in one of his kitchens with a sous chef kneeling in front of him giving him the proverbial and those were his (vociferously spoken) words.

the fact that he might be both a batsman and wicket keeper is attractive to me .

i'd feel sorry for his long suffering wife except that she allegedly now has him under total kosh, in a 'fuck about and i will hit you with the most expensive divorce ever' way.....

jools has not a leg to stand on though as we love 'im, and also i thought his eyes were looking rather fabulously husky ice blue tonight.

Slubberdegullion · 21/08/2007 20:58

I'd rather Ainsley than Gordon.

I've never seen Nigel Slater (not sure he does tv), but his recipes are always great....I think if push came to shove on paper I'd have Nigel, then that big chap off saturday morning kitchen, Jamie, Nigella, Ainsley, Gordon, Delia. In that order.

Heathcliffscathy · 21/08/2007 20:59

it is true apparently (did you mean does or doesn't?)

pointydog · 21/08/2007 20:59

aw, I couldn't be horrid about jamie

Heathcliffscathy · 21/08/2007 21:00

and mrs ramsay, i was telling said rumour in the context of how attractive your husband is....so even though it is a scurrilous (sp?) rumour, you have a fantastically eligible and talented spouse.

pointydog · 21/08/2007 21:01

You'd rather Ainsley than Gordon? For what purpose?

I've seen a photo of Nigel Slater and he's not bonny.

Heathcliffscathy · 21/08/2007 21:01

you see I love nigel. BUT apparently he is a teeny bit over convinced of his own very important indeed status.

his recipes are not as reliable i've found. but i do adore kitchen diaries.

pointydog · 21/08/2007 21:02

oh I like nigel's recipes but he looks like a prize twat

Heathcliffscathy · 21/08/2007 21:03

NO WAY.

gordon is definitely the only real contender for my shag. most certainly.

nigel is not that way inclined for one.

actually i'd do nigella too. although she doesn't fit my fantasy criterion of seriously aggressive and uber vixenly platinum blonde. i think this stems from quite fancying madonna in the express yourself video circa 1989 or so.

Slubberdegullion · 21/08/2007 21:03

Ainsley than Gordon on a desert island type situation way.

Oh but Nigels plum crumble set my heart on fire. And his spicy parsnip shepherds pie. I don't care if he's a moose...his food pleases me greatly.

Aitch · 21/08/2007 21:03

i don't think nigel would be interested, slubbers, even if push did come to shove.

Kathyis6incheshigh · 21/08/2007 21:03

I believe it.
Though if true I am sure it was more about power than about sex - if he had been the sucker rather than the suckee then that really would be news.

Nigel does a bit of tv - he used to appear on Nigella, or the other way round. But he wasn't really that good at it - he writes better than he films.

I like Sophable's comment about Tana Ramsey. It's true - the power relationship there is probably quite interesting.

dh interviewed him, he said he was nice but effete. that 30-minute recipe book of his is fantastic.

pointydog · 21/08/2007 21:05

IN A DESERT ISLAND WAY??!

Cripes, I'd be screaming like sponge-bob after half a day on my own with either of them.

Slubberdegullion · 21/08/2007 21:05

The photos of Nigels hands in his crumble topping are sexy. Can the rest of him be so very bad.

pointydog · 21/08/2007 21:06

Now, would I like to be grinned to death or frowned to death?

pointydog · 21/08/2007 21:06

Nigel looks a total twerp, believe us.

Heathcliffscathy · 21/08/2007 21:07

i'm not sure at all.

but it's one of those industry rumours that has a ring of truth about it.

i'm sure it is bolleaux (ooooo, getting coy about that word but potty mouth has been using the fuck all over the place...jeez)

but i like it.
