I would have to choose between Heston for his creativity and baldness

and Jamie for his simple/rustic food (although he does like to use gallons of oil)

Who are yours?

    I like Hugh Fearnley-Whittinstall (if thats his name!) he makes everything look so easy and tasty! River cottage veg series was great, saved me from a lifetime of peas and sweetcorn lol!

    Can I say my boyfriend? He's been on Good Food channel a couple of times!!!

    Otherwise I do like Hugh Fernley-Whittingstall (Saw him in a restaurant just down from work the other day, got very excited!) Or Matt Tebbutt :) Basically anyone who really pays tribute to English produce and real food!

    Hugh for his use of fresh/regional products.

    I like Lorraine Pascales baking, and just her generally. God she's so fit!

    Ooooh I love cookery programmes! I think my absolute favourite has to be Raymond Blanc. Not very healthy but he is just so talented and passionate about food. Next in line would be Rick Stein.

    And for pure entertainment is has to be Nigella.....!!!

    Mine is Nigel Slater, prefer his tv programmes than the books, they need more pictures.

    It's Heston & Slater for me - def. not James Martin as he hates cyclists

    James Martin makes my blood boil! My wife puts his show on because she knows I really don't like him. Anyone that advocates running over cyclists should have there brain tested! :mad:

    I've met David Myers (dark haired hairy biker) as he is from my home town. Such a nice chap. We were both in Thorntons getting a coffee lol

    James Martin always seems so smarmy!!

    Oo and I love the veggie River Cottage too

    Should Hairy Bikers and Nigella be mentioned in the same sentence... it seems very wrong to me!

    Hugh for his no nonsense approach to food.

    Heston as he is a culinary genius

    Nigella as she is...well...Nigella

    but the one that always come to mind is

    Rick Stein as I adore everything that man does, including the way he make his programmes. ( I miss Chalky)

    I detest James Martin. He is a complete idiot
