Who is the most annoying tv cook/chef?

I'm convinced it's Sophie Dahl.

I'm currently suffering sitting through an episode of her show and I already want to ram a kitchen implement somewhere that will be painful and unpleasant for her.

She talks the biggest load of waffle ever. And if she mentions her holiday in Martha's Vineyard once more I'm going to hurl myself or possibly just the tv out of the nearest window.

Your nominations please.

No mention of Master Chef...do I take it that no one has an issue with Greg or John?

fedupwithdeployment · 07/07/2010 21:58

By the way, I CANNOT watch Delia. Her books are fine. Her telly isn't.

I loved Floyd and like rick Stein.

anthony worrall thompson-pompous and offensive to the eye
brian turner-thinks he's obv a great cook because he's from yorshire
john burton race-little man syndrome
john torode & greg wallace-vile,vile,vile
i also think that nigel slater can't hack it on tv which is a huge shame as his books are so fab

stainesmassif · 07/07/2010 22:03

i have a crush on don't mind john torrode
and keith floyd was fantastic.

aseriouslyblondemoment · 07/07/2010 22:04

ooh just thought of another couple....lol my claws are sharp tonight
jean christophe novelli
and does anybody remember the name of that ghastly sycophantic woman who'd outrageously flirt with him on that good food channel?
ewww i loathed that programme exh watched it religiously every night
oh and the woman who presented that programme too

GetOrfMoiLand · 07/07/2010 22:06

I would like a threesome with John Torrode and the other geezer

Christ and I haven't even had a drink - why do I think such thoughts?

aseriouslyblondemoment · 07/07/2010 22:07
Shock
PrettyFeckinVacant · 07/07/2010 22:09

Hah, had forgotten about burton-race man. I must admit I laughed when his wife sold his restaurant whilst he was in the jungle - he had been shagging a younger woman and his wife was, justifiably, pissed off

stainesmassif · 07/07/2010 22:10

getorf - i can't begin to imagine? the other geezer!

stainesmassif · 07/07/2010 22:11

rick stein's a bit too effete for my liking.

MoonFaceMama · 07/07/2010 22:16

Getorf [shocked]

I think torrode might be more interested in the other fella

Wallace is clearly his gimp.

GetOrfMoiLand · 07/07/2010 22:17

Whatshisname - Greg something, the one he is on masterchef with.

stainesmassif · 07/07/2010 22:18

I know the one you mean! Gimp is prob right!

aseriouslyblondemoment · 07/07/2010 22:19

tamasin day lewis!!

taffetacatski · 07/07/2010 22:21

Rick Stein went off with a young bit of skirt didn't he? After his wife devoted years to building up his business. Niiiice.

He always strikes me as needy.

MoonFaceMama · 07/07/2010 22:25

Stein's lovely. Floyd was a god to me. Raymond is like a dad.

Blonde you are right, Turner is another national disgrace (PRY).

Marco pierre white? Leeds lad, quite tempting. Just ditch the head wear. Would give anthony bourdain the time of day too.

MoonFaceMama · 07/07/2010 22:29

Taking it back about stein ta taffeta

Tamasin day lewis is really annoying blonde, yes.

So are the two fat hairy stupid bikers.

stainesmassif · 07/07/2010 22:31

Who's the Irish one that's on after Saturday kitchen? I can't bear her.

PrettyFeckinVacant · 07/07/2010 22:36

Rachel Allen, Staines??

aseriouslyblondemoment · 07/07/2010 22:36

what's so irritating is that she sees herself as some kind of cool hip rock chick mom...eww and that awful mane of hair of hers too
don't mind si and dave actually tho

MoonFaceMama · 07/07/2010 22:37

This thread is not bringing out my better qualities.

I think there have been some regional variations on the theme of underwhelming female too. Anjum something, and a chinese version.

I know he's not a chef but that james wong man is irritating. He doesn't even believe in his own shit!

PrettyFeckinVacant · 07/07/2010 22:38

Si and Dave seem nice - they are involved in a project that my organisation is managing and they have said they will do anything that we want

MoonFaceMama · 07/07/2010 22:48

sell them to getotf

[shocked]

MoonFaceMama · 07/07/2010 22:53

fwiw i don't dispute that they are nice. I just find them irritating. God i'm in for some karmic retribution.
