Nigel Slater Alert

[spacedonkey]

He's on BBC2 at 8.30pm drooling over things

Didn't anyone watch St Nigel of Foodporn?

He was brilliant, I love him

Watched it while eating something cooked from one of his recipes!

We luv Nige in our house, we do.

I cried when he told the story about the smoked haddock and his dad

I find him to be a ponce, sorry.

Can not watch him. Like his books though.

that chocolate sandwich GRIM bastardising of food.
my god we pay a license fee to fund him making that gross shit!

I had to laugh when he said he used to nip off into the woods to have a secret ogle at his....cookery magazines.

and the "sex for steak" story was a good un!

aaarrh missed it
too busy watching people lose thousands in Spain

zero radio/tv presence i'm afraid, but fabbo in books he lives opposite dd1's school, so we see him scurrying out to buy cheese..

Did anyone else think that he could be Alan Bennett's love child, if only Alan was of a (ahem) different persuasion

Yes he could!

I don't agree that he has zero presence: I thought he was great with his cheeky little grin

His literary/cook book voice and his tv persona didn't quite match up somehow. Still liked it though.

His kitchen always surprises me, it's so science lab like - I think it should be mre 'homey'
