I think Christmas at her house would be faaaaab. With all that faaaaaab food. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. I'm watching her TV prog just now and feeling all festive! And hungry!

I can't believe she's 48. It's NOT FAIR. She was interviewed in the Observer last week and came across as surprisingly nice and sensible - have always been a bit about her.

she gets on my tits but find her disturbingly watchable...

MrsSchadenfreude · 15/12/2008 20:48

And all her lovely crockery and decorations!

dp would love it too.Unsure as to what he would salivate over more though: Nigella or her scrummy food .!

DH is getting excited watching it too but more about her jugs and not the ones with the gravy in them.

It's not her house, it's a set. And her husband is weirdy egg-eating recluse. Don't believe the hype!

I'd quite like her to come and decorate my house too, hers looks so sooooo cosy!

Oh yes I'll bet the warehouse it's filmed in has mucho ambience. LOL

It's all smurk 'n' mirrors you know.

devoutsceptic · 15/12/2008 20:53

I strongly suspect friends of being extras...

Megglevache · 15/12/2008 20:54

past shows have had actors pretending to be her good looking, smashing friends.

Megglevache · 15/12/2008 20:55

Ditto with JO's early shows.

devoutsceptic · 15/12/2008 20:55

If it's not her real house how can we be sure those are her real friends ?

DoubleBluff · 15/12/2008 20:57

its filmed in a warehouse somewhere

HassledElf · 15/12/2008 20:58

They're FAKE!

That's it, I want my license fee back now. I will be duped no more.

I have sky+ it I always thought it was her kitchen.

I have the nigella Christmas book and have made some lovely things from it.

But was the superb kitchen based on her own kitchen? In which case it's still fab. (As long as she has the fairy lights up and a walk in larder.)

DH is all disappointed but I suppose she will take her jugs wherever she goes.
