Great British Menu - Series 3 Wales Regional Heat

*****

I confess I had been disappointed with thefirst regional final last week of thisTV series. None of thedishes greatly appealed to me and some in fact did the opposite. Butthis week its the turn of Angela Hartnett and Stephen Terry to compete in...

A Cook's Tour of Spain

*****

That oddball likable woman who won Masterchef a few years ago has come up with a thoroughly interesting show on Spanish food. This is the sort of straightforward warts and all food programme that I love. No gimmicks, no leering at the camera, just...

Guerrilla Gourmet, Series 1 Episode 3, RTE

*****

After a not so good start to this series, I enjoyed this episode as it was less gimmicky, more food and chef focussed.

Hugh's Chicken Run

*****

An important TV programme and one that will hopefully be a milestone in the transformation of the production of chicken in Europe.

Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares USA

*****

I hate almost all of Ramsay's TV output except for the UK Kitchen Nightmares which should be mandatory viewing in all UK catering colleges. The business of feeding people is deeply interesting. Whilst this US one is good, all his worst traits are...

The Pressure Cooker (RTE)

*****

The advertising for this programme had me hating its subject before it had even started. It depicted Dylan McGrath, who runs Mint restaurant in Dublin, as an obnoxious Ramsay-knockoff desperate to win a Michelin star. Two minutes into the show I wanted...

Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares USA (Finn McCool's)

*****

This isn't a patch on the UK series mainly because they are desperate for conflict to improve the ratings. Having said that, this was a bloody good episode which warmed the cockles.

Nigella Express

*****

After the Christmas debacle I didn't think Nigella Lawson could sink any lower. I was wrong.
