I like Michel Roux and how he comes across very much, I was a bit suprised at his decision for the wine scolarship as I thought blonde lady was better but she was non commital, I was made up for Ashley.

[looobylooo]

oh i like michel roux too china, and the way he comes across..
yeah, the blonde one wasnt committed was she, so good on brooke in getting the job with ol fred :o)
i was glad danielle got through,
and yes i was chuffed for ashley too, bless him, i hope he does well.
i think he will, he had a nice personality that the customers warmed to.
he just needs a bit of tweaking :o)

I was so pleased that Ashley & Danielle won. Yes, I was crying to. Good luck to them all for the future.

[squarebear]

Yes, an excellent series. They all came on enomrmously well. However, it makes you wonder if it as just edited to make them look like a bunch of chavs at the start.

[waiglet]

Yeah..I think Brooke was the pick of the bunch tho I was also happy for Ashley. Loved it when Fred gave Brooke the job offer and she said: "That's better than the scholarship." LOL

[China Doll]

Brooke reminds me a little bit of my youngest sister so I was well chuffed that she got offered that job... I've got a bit of a crush on Michel Roux actually, I like his eyes and his smile and he seems really gentlemanly on masterchef and this programe

[looobylooo]

yeah, he has got a nice smile hasnt he, and nice eyes .... and yes, is very gentlemanly too ..... nice ;o)

No Googling just guess if you don't already know!

[China Doll]

His father is the one on the right with the brown eyes and grey hair, he's got a very distinctive look I think, same eyes as Michel. he was on last night

[Invictas]

Well China,I will keep you waiting (If I may) until some others have answered,sorry!

[looobylooo]

its the one on the left of the picture, surely? the one looking at the camera?
you can see the resemblance in the eyes..

the dad was in the programme last night...

[Invictas]

Well, as Looby has blown the plot,yes his Father is Albert Roux the small dumpy guy with the black hair on the left of the pic.
However,I think he looks like his Uncle (also called Michel) so who knows?

[looobylooo]

aww sorry for blowing the plot invictas lol ...

im trying to find abit more about ol fred sirieix, but im not having much joy,
how old is he, does anyone know?

[squarebear]

"How do you get your balls 12ft off the ground?"

Best sentence of the day :-)

[squarebear]

Sorry, wrong thread!

[Invictas]

looby,
I forgive you!
and to show I do,here is a clip from an article in The Independent of January 6th 2011.

After coming to London from Paris aged 20 in 1990, he set about trying to insert himself into the most fashionable dining rooms in the capital. "Name a famous restaurant in London from the past two decades and I've more than likely done a stint there," he says without even the suggestion of conceit. He has directed service at Pierre Koffman's La Tante Claire, acted as head waiter at Roux in the City, and welcomed guests to Le Gavroche and several Conran restaurants.

So he was born in 1970,which makes him 40,coming on 41 this year!
