can't be bothered with it. she made her name being a plus sized model and is now a lollipop pretending to cook food.

the name sounds like Roald dahl book

lottiejenkins · 23/03/2010 17:31

I didnt like the way she said melancholy...........

reikizen · 23/03/2010 17:32

It just make me so cross, as if she eats any bloody thing but lettuce and bloody water. How foolish do they think we are?

doitall · 23/03/2010 18:32

And what exactly are Sophie Dahl's food / cookery credentials?

Another lifestyle show - probably filmed in an all-white location house somewhere (i.e. not her real home) - all whipped up into a meringue perfection and presented with so much sweetness it'll make me vomit.

lottiejenkins · 23/03/2010 18:49

doitall you are so right!!

Another 'Look At Me' programme...I won't watch it on principle!

tattycoram · 23/03/2010 19:02

Absolutely can't be bothered with it. Sooooo phoney

smallorange · 23/03/2010 19:06

Have a feeling DP might show an interest in her ...er...cooking

bibbitybobbityhat · 23/03/2010 19:12

I also won't watch it on principle for the reasons already stated:

  1. having lost a ton of weight after turning her back on plus sized-ness, I don't believe for one second that she is an actual foodie
  1. exactly what are her credentials in terms of cooking?
  1. its all a concoction and a confection and an insult to proper cooks, and buys into this idea that no programme is worth making unless a sleb is attached to it.

Yuk!

I think she should just make dahl every week

TheCrackFox · 23/03/2010 19:29

I won't be watching it either. I am sure she is a lovely person but really, hasn't this whole concept been done to death?

Impossibly good looking woman. Check.

House that could be used for a photoshoot. Check.

Food that looks tasty but nobody will get around to cooking. Check.

I am bored to tears of all this lifestyle porn.

HAHAHAHA said!

pointydog · 23/03/2010 19:37

If Jamie Cullum provides a jazzy pinao number as an interlude while dahl eyes him up and eats cream, then I might watch it

TheCrackFox · 23/03/2010 19:40

I think I might bring up my dinner if I had to watch that.

pointydog · 23/03/2010 19:44

It would be utterly riveting though, crackers

TheCrackFox · 23/03/2010 19:47

It would be compelling but for all the wrong reasons.

pointydog · 23/03/2010 19:50

But at least that way, there is none of this sham of trying to present a proper food show. It will so blatantly be a foody farce just to gawp at.

I have it on good authority that she cannot actually cook!

pointydog · 23/03/2010 20:03

she didn't get as slim as that by improving her cream cake cooking skills

smallorange · 23/03/2010 20:35

Right this is unbearable already. In fact DP is unbearable already.

I would be embarrassed to appear on a show with that title. I would be 'The Quite Good Piccolina' or somesuch. British modesty - SD obviously doesn't have any.

But aren't we all just a tad that she can get paid for simply looking gorgeous doing something she likes?
