It makes me so nervous when the ring pull isn’t off the can. 
Yeah, I think at that point most people would either change therapists and get some better coping techniques, or stick to prepared and edited segments because they're a lot less nerve-wracking! Live TV is really difficult even if you don't have anxiety, so I kinda feel for her.
I did feel rather bad for her, but she's clearly not comfortable with lives so why not stick to text or pre-records?
Final scores:
Team red are the winners! Just one away from a full house but she foiled us by pre chopping the onion

Gosh I followed on here. Why does she do this to herself. Madness!
Haven’t caught up but I watched it and I’m still flapping around silently screaming POISON CHICKEN JUICE IS EVERYWHERE.
I don’t feel bad at all, she’s happy to take Del Monte’s money, nobody is making her do it!
She also mentioned how she has so many ideas buzzing around her crazy little brain and they'll be on the blog soon...
....OK but this partnership has been on since December, and has produced an Xmas dinner, a Valentine's fruity Yorkshire pudding, and a peach drizzle cake (unblogged). So many ideas? Where are they? Stop playing around with plug hair and write them down!

Side note: anybody got the Hellman's live? Think I deserve a bit more torture tonight x
She didn’t too too badly for her. There was only the lateness, the raw chicken juice flying through the air, salmonella hands and cinnamon avalanch. Also the little squeaky bit at the end with the unconvincing health claims.
Jack needs to face the fact that she ISN'T a cook, can't do TV, can't present
and needs to change career now.
None of this is working for her.

And “cooking oil”
I've dealt with people with chunks of glass in their hands or their kneecap round the other side of their leg 
that have sounded more relaxed than that.

Yesssssssss.
Well, she fugued that up.
It’s over now. Feel pretty bad for her. (Last tune I promise).
If she can't do live, she should just admit it to Del Monte. "I'm not good at presenting live, but I am happy to produce some short Insta videos/YouTube recipes etc." But that would require her to not fancy herself as some sort of celeb cook/social media maven.
Who the frig watches live cooking vids on Insta anyway? Even if it was a chef I liked I couldn't be arsed and I watch cooking shows and stuff like that.

I struggle with anxiety and have been finding the pandemic overwhelming of late. I feel like i'm wading through treacle and my concentration and focus isn't what I want it to be. Jack generally rushed through it and by the end it felt like she needed to end it quick before she had a melt down. But this was the case last year and in the tv segments she's done before the pandemic. I just think she needs to understand that presenting/cooking on camera isn't her thing. Or she needs to work and practice super, super hard to overcome her hurdles with it.
