While we're on about telly cooking shit...

Anyone notice that ITV have stolen Saturday Kitchen, lock stock and barrel. I'm guessing the production company that makes it got a better deal or something, because the show is exactly the same - Chumpy chump nuts still presents it, they have the two guest chefs, the recipe vote and the competition.

They just don't have repeats of Gary Rhodes, Rick Stein, Keith Floyd, Masterchef etc - cos they're owned by Beeb.

Was really weird, it seems like it happened mid series as well, cos we're never going to see who won masterchef and when they do the recipe vote, the guest chefs keeping saying things like 'you always win' to chumpy chump knuts - even through it was the first episode...

But anyway they have some other show on Sunday with Andi Peters presenting - Peter's is terrible, he clearly has no idea about food.

I thought something was going on. Last saturday Anthony Worral-Thompson was on both BBC1 and ITV at the same time.

He was wearing a different lurid shirt, though.

I noticed that. It was terrifying

his shirts are some of the loudest & most distressing on tv, but he gets away with it!

he's is the hobbit that they had to cut out of Lord of the rings because he was making children weep in the aisles with his screwed up little weirdo face

Saturday Kitchen is back on - with a new chef... So they'll be two saturday cooking shows competing at teh same time - what has happened to telly - it's gone all catty.

I mean I thought the new DG of the beeb so that good programming was important and they weren't going to chase rating and they were going to chop some of the DIY, house buying, bargain hunt bullshit out...

What do we actually get - no TOTP, two shows competing at the same time for the same audience and probably a couple more DIY Makeover your Antiques Roadshow Bargain Praise...

I mean how about cancelling Songs of FUcking Praise - I bet no one watches that...

Cancel S.O.P., no way its still contemporary - live from a different church every week! Amazing and you'll be able to watch it on yer i-pod/digital hat!

The lord jesus never goes out of date my friends.

the BBC could never cancel Songs of Praise. Even though no one watches it, I bet Christian Voice would firebomb TV Centre.
