Bitter much? Wasn’t there lots of complaints when THAT MAN started about his accent and being a bit rough around the edges.

she has to blame everyone (narc) as she’s has all the tools available to work on this but she’s too lazy. She could have a successful YouTube channel if she had worked on it, I know someone who makes a big chunk of money on the side running one.

The other issue is the food has to look tasty and it doesn’t. Prince Lumpy can’t cook and watches cookery programmes (I think that represents the majority of people who watch cookery programmes) it’s entertainment, not actual cookery instruction in the main.

Have a look at this, ninnies. A Facebook post of her supposedly panicking about having to cook three recipes on telly the following day. A few things to note:

1. Really just an excuse to wave her books at the camera
2. The *insert Tom Cruise gif* of being so unprepared
3. The lack of actual people given (it‘s soooo funny) about being so unprepared for the sort of opportunity some people would give their right arm to get
4. The cancer and Syria cookbooks

Utter tool.


ETA:Spoilered the video because of the still photo
ETA2: Won’t spoiler it ☹
ETA3: Done it! Yaaaay! 🥳 (That’s it, I’ve peaked for the day now 😂)

Also, there are working class people in TV Jack you plum. Most of the time, because we are in the minority, we have to be GOOD at our jobs to get by.

There are plenty of poshos in jobs they shouldn't be in because Daddy helped (*cough* the fire service *cough*) but that's not the thing that's holding you back, let's be honest.

It's a role play video where Jack acts the part of a Poor who has been gifted a set of Jack's books.

Books next appearing on Facebook marketplace as 'flicked through once'

Oh, no not at all!!! I think my analogy wasn’t bang on.

Just trying to say she thinks she is the “bad boy” Uni drop out of cooking- Mick, when actually she is the one who went to grammar school and isn’t actually that racy-Mark.

Hasn’t the whole Essex and London schtick been *favoured* in tv for years? It’s like representation lite - they’re still mainly white and MC (or at least currently MC) but something a bit different from the RP Oxbridge grads.

I say this every time she brings up how common she is but being married to a northerner has been so eye opening on how willfully ignorant people are & that any southern accent gives you some privileges.

It's also not as if she *hasn't* been given the opportunities. Over and over again. She's just managed to mess them all up.

I keep repeating myself but it's worth repeating I think. Jack herself said she wanted to start up a crowdfunder for her own 'forever home' but LJC talked her out of it.

Louisa Jane Compton’s own channel 4 news does a lot to highlight the stories of people stuck in inadequate temporary accommodation, often over crowded and mold/vermin ridden, and usually because they don’t have enough for a deposit or private rents. I hope she suggested Jack watches some of their stories.

Yes this is of course, nonsense. I've written several pitches in my time and generally speaking they take about a week. It's different for cooking shows obviously but in documentary you would do a story outline, link to pictures/any exclusive material you might have, verbatim quotes from the people taking part in the programme, it's a lot of work.

She hasn't been part of any development team as if she had she would have been paid to do so. TV companies don't take pitches from randos unprompted.

We would sometimes get emails (back when I was a runner) from nutty people who didn't know how TV works sending through a 'pitch' convinced their idea was amazing but you never read them because they were a bunch of rambly balls with no clear idea.

There are entire development teams of people who have been in the industry for years working on creating programming. So the idea that they would need to steal ideas from someone who has never pitched a show in her life or worked behind the scenes in TV, is quite frankly, ludicrous.

Same as it ever was, 🙄 she really needs to leave planet mackie occasionally, and join the real world
