Is no-one talking about Jamie and his pig programme? what, have we got tired of him?

[MauriceDancer]

i am never eating danish pork again.

i'm not tired of him. frankly getting rid of all pork that is sow stall reared from all pig products and meat important is the very least that should happen.

is that man wanking a pig???

absolutely. i saw the show a while ago and have since found it pretty hard going avoiding danish stuff. we don't have those sow stalls in the uk.

I'm watching The Victorian Farm -- possibly a case of bad scheduling having those up against each other.

i believe he is, whitenoise. no show complete without it these days...

oh yes, i saw that was on the schedules. what's it about? is it all 'fings woz better in them days'? (cos my lot were in service or paupers then and it didn't sound like a laff riot).

just put a thread on this in chat.

I think the pig wanking is going to give me nightmares. And piglet castration next. Can't wait.

Jamie is nothing BUT sensationalist these days. I want to punch him wheneever I see him and I used to really like him.

I agree it's a terrible idea to have it all done in front of an audience in a studio. Like it was Top Gear or something.

They couuld have filmed those parts on a farm, surely, without losing any, er, impact.

Jamie Oliver, you are RUBBISH these days. That introduction in his Ministry of Food book is dire. I didn't know whether to laugh or cry - he seems to think he is the saviour of the planet......yuck, yuck, yuck.....

That poor piglet!

OOOOH NO>

fuckinghell. that is awful.

Bored of St Jamie of the Oliver and his crusades.

I only buy British pork, ham and bacon because of welfare standards but I am bored of being preached to by him.

ach, i think the sensational thing is to get people talking. which is a bit like thinking, but louder.

pig brother, pmsl

have you ever thought why it is sensationalist? have you thought about the audience he is targetting?

he is preaching to the converted here isn't he? but trying to get his point across in an emotive and accessible way to people that haven't given animal welfare a second thought. he is using popular cultural points of reference like big brother and the bang bang bang format is to attempt to keep people from switching over.

frankly a panorama (although that is extraordinarily dumbed down now) is not going to cut it, and at least he is putting this information out there in some form.

agree, although soph at this rate he'll have us all veggies.

really hacked off with celeb chefs making Jo public watch animals go to slaughter and then comment as though they do it all the time.
We are farmers and find Sir James extremely patronising!!!

Talking here

i started mine first whoosh.

so you'll knock back the money, then, if he makes a difference to british pork uptake, cioccolata?
