No contest at all....James Martin is the tastiest chef on TV. He's absolutely gorgeous in the flesh too. Lucky me, I've met him. Plus his recipes are ones that duffers like me can make!
Claire Sweeney is enough to make anybody turn the television off. Not only must we endure her and her "Chef vs Britain" section every Saturday but we also have to watch constant re-runs of "60 Minute Makeover". 6 days of Claire a week is awful.
I don't watch any of the shows though. They have no appeal. I'm sure these celebrity chefs can cook by themselves at home without the need for television cameras.
JamesMartin is food candy but lacks AWT's personality and cheekiness. Wish they'd leave good idea's alone - if they had, I'd still watch. Instead, I do something completely different and save the time I wasted and forget about eating. Any slimmer? Doubt it.
