I do like Nigel Slater, and Toast was a great film. I was hoping to see the play, but who knows when, or where. I do remember there was a bit of criticism from the step mum's family that he had exaggerated and she was nowhere near as horrible as he portrayed her, but they would stick up for their family right?

Simon Rimmer seems to think he invented pulled pork. Surely that can't be right
I thought he was vegan/vegetarian!?
He is not vegetarian but he does own Greens Veggie Restaurant in West Didsbury, Manchester.
I did a private cookery day with the late great Gary Rhodes about 13 years ago.
He was BRILLIANT - lovely lovely guy.

I met him a looong time ago and he was charming
Oh he always seemed so lovely and I heard many good reports. His death was so sad. His brother posted on twitter a few months ago that he was struggling with it too.
Any gossip on John trode? I think he comes across like an hole but felt I could be wrong after Lisa F got with him. Still something doesn’t feel right about him.
He’s a sexist twit who thinks women shouldn’t be professional chefs
Thinking about it, I haven't ever seen a woman chef work for him. Sounds like you know more, care to share...?
He is arrogant I think, though have no direct, or indirect experience. Him and Gregg Wallace, the greengrocer, can both get in the bin as far as I'm concerned.

I completely agree Gregg Wallace should be put in the bin. Why he needs to shout at everyone the whole time kills me
Gregg Wallace is my number one most hated person on tv. Followed closely by Stacey Dooley. I cannot stand the way he talks and his inane comments about food, which he clearly knows nothing about.
My mum always calls in that as well! She can't stand him!
Oh god his shouting is the worst! He basically hit it lucky and can't keep it in his pants.
He also conveniently forgets he's a green grocer. I'm caveating this by saying I have nothing against the profession - it's an honourable trade and the produce is better than supermarkets - but he clearly thinks he's so much better now.
My hubby calls him John The Toad 
I’ve met MPW and he is absolutely lovely. His son on the other hand is a self entitled twit.
Does anyone else remember when Lenny Henry was on tv and they showed a clip of Ainsley Harriott

He’s an ‘ingredients expert!’Oh god his shouting is the worst! He basically hit it lucky and can't keep it in his pants.

And he can't even pretend to do that well! I hate all the 'PHWOOAAAARRRRR' and 'WALLOP' nonsense. Cock.
