Now I should support James Martin being a Yorkshireman, but his show is now so tired I think it struggles to make it to screen.

 

I honestly believe there is one script and he has used it since day one.

 

About time the BBC tried something new now.

 

I particularly loathe the omelette challenge. There is a minimum amount of time it will take to properly cook a three egg omelette. James Martin should be made to eat them all if he thinks they are cooked properly. A pointless part of the programme.

I challenge you to completely eat both omelettes made (including all the runny fluid which seeps out of the firm set mass of egg)

I preferred it when they had 2 members of the public in it as well until the beeb made cutbacks. . now it's an empty kitchen with a few self congratulatory Chefs and an extra someone selling something who has to eat some food too..

 

Omelette challenge is my favourite part now as well .. cooking is rubbish as virtually impossible to get any of the cuts of food they use or additional herbs and spices needed

 

On the odd occasion they use a cut of meat I can get hold of and have used for years as it was cheap, the supermarkets then bang up the price and I can no longer afford it...  or some stop stocking anything other than a plain old rubbery roasting joint with no marbling in it,  or chicken or chops . . or they take the bones out so you can't make stock or gravy.. or they never do cheap cuts at all now . .gone are the days of buying an oxtail for 25p or get it as scraps. .lucky to even find them now or afford them if you can find them and they are fabulous for soups and stews..

I have to agree with above, although I bet the costs of having two members of the public in are nowhere near the costs of having two michelin star chefs in the studio.

 

 

But everyone above I can't agree on the omelette challenge it's just pointless, tiresome, poor and not really much of a challenge.

I used to love this programme when it first started ( many years ago) , but not watched it for ages...I think it's had its day

We agree far too much. The other FM's may think we are colluding and starting some sort of alliance/cartel

No way would I eat their gloop but its fun watching how competitive and desperate and shoddy these chefs become faced with a simple challenge
