Are You Fed Up With Cookery Programmes ?

[Baron99]

I never tire of watching Nigella. 

 

Or seeing the occasional clip of Keith Floyd.  Now he's a cook of his time.  I doubt he would get on tv these days, with his cavalier, non-conformist ways?

Nonsense -  TV producers love a good character. His programmes were shown on one of the old programmes channels (Yesterday?) not so long ago.

Keith Floyd was my favourite cook. Loved his cavalier attitude. He loved to have a glass of alcohol at the side as he was cooking. If they showed his programmes again, I would watch them.

It is the same with quiz programmes, they are cheaper to make than something decent. BBC1 tonight has 4 quiz programmes on one after the other from 6.10 till 9.30 and two of those are more celebrity quizzes.

Also talk shows aren’t as good as Parkinson and Wogans were. Every question seems to be pre- planned, as though theve discussed the whole programme beforehand.

I'm fed up of TV fullstop.

With the odd exception there's nothing but rubbish and more repeats of rubbish.

I feel the same as you Anna.

Can anyone remember that mad cooking show/skit that was on late at night that was basically students making beans on toast?

 

I think it was on channel 4 

 

Had a mad bloke shouting over the top of it and crazy electric guitar music?

That's why I told the BBC that I won't be paying again any time soon. I only ever had a quick look at the news and that repeats every 10 minutes. Nothing else on that I'm bothered with. Netflix, Amazon and free 3 months of Britbox and Disney+ via BT & O2 (I won't be renewing Britbox or Disney)

 

I watch a film or TV when I want, and much more choice of what I want.

Its Saturday night so the fire stick is on. Youtube music vids for the rest of the night.

TBH, if The BBC burnt down tomorrow, I doubt id notice. Not really sure why the wife actually pays the TV tax.
