ooooh, you traitor.....

frecklyspeckly · 13/04/2009 22:49

'Danielle, stay close, you need my protection.'
'you are nervous, aren't you..'

'Stay close to me Danielle, or someone will take your place'

so says renowned ladies man Marco!

DrNortherner · 15/04/2009 09:22

It is so ovbious he fancies Danielle. Anyone else think her face looks a bit odd - her lips/mouth. Perhaps she has had some work?

I must admit to thinking Grant looked quite dishy in his chefs whites.......

I like Jody very much.

jenk1 · 15/04/2009 21:07

NOOOOOOOOOO you cant say grant looks dishy that is sooooooo wrong

does Marco not really piss other people off with his kitchen attitude?
when you see top chefs in real work practice or even someone like ramsay on his version of hells kitchen they are always perfectionists when it comes to standards. where as marco will send out food he thinks to be sub-standard as he reckons the customer won't notice. a case in point being when he cut the steak in half last night and put the two-halfs of the one steak facing up and the twi-halfs of the under-cooked steak facing down and covered in sauce.
also when ever the customer feed-back comes in he disregards anything negative off hand and trumps up any slight positive. where as most chefs only want to har the negatives as they are the things that need improving on.
i know it's most likely because he's just dealing with amateur celebs, but when you genuinely have one of the great chefs at your disposal and you paint him as a scary perfectionist who will only accept the best, the show does lose a bit of credibility when he himself takes short-cuts.

Pennies · 16/04/2009 22:03

Jody's an annoying little git isn't he. Smug, sly, insincere. Can't stand him.

mayorquimby · 17/04/2009 00:58

another perfect example of what i was giving out about earlier on. his kitchen sent a customer over-cooked fish that was described as being served "pink" and he acted as though it was unreasonable to ask to be served another when he'd sent out shit

twinsetandpearls · 17/04/2009 01:01

I agree mayor.

I really dislike Jody as well.

mayorquimby · 17/04/2009 01:11

i still love the show. but it's his effin short-cuts and ignoring of any criticisms from the people he's there to please, the customers. he's more concerned with playing the psychologist on all the celebs "you secretly want to be a waiter...you just...don't...know....it ....yet" eff off and get back in the kitcen.

DrNortherner · 17/04/2009 08:29

I think MPW has lost the plot slightly. In his day the man was a genius, but I think you have to be slighlty unhingd to gain 3 Michelin stars at such a young bloody age and put in the sheer hard graft that that kind of sucess requires. The long days, the long hours, the 7 day weeks, sleeping on the floor in his kitchen, FFS he gave himself a heart attack at a very young age and has 3 failed marriages behind him.

He detested 'celeberity' chefs and openly criticised them for it and now has become just that. I think the food he is serving is not MPW standard, but he is more concerned with the actual show IYKWIM.

mustsleep · 17/04/2009 09:55

hate hate hate Jodie what a git

smug and insincere I can't serve you that i won;t serve shit, that's straight off Gordon Ramsey or something

Hope he gets voted off first

mayorquimby · 17/04/2009 11:07

jodie's alright in my book.
and it was absolute pompous bullshit his "i can't serve you shit" i'd agree with you there. but it's exactly the kind of thing MPW would absolutely lap up.

Tinker · 17/04/2009 17:28

Grant Bovey just looks so like Peter Powell, it's spooky.

And Linda Evans just looks like Mickey Rourke now, it's also spooky

jenk1 · 23/04/2009 22:13
