Does anyone watch this show? It's quite funny most weeks. Yesterday they had Jonathon Ross on and he was a real hoot. It's on BBCA on Sunday evenings.

I love it! I forgot to DVR it last night, so I'll have to pick it up later in the week.

I love it. It shows a different side of Gordon than what we are used to on Hell's Kitchen.

It does show a different side of Gordon though he was being a little ruder last night and he didn't even notice his female 'commie' dipping a spoon in the soup, tasting it, licking the spoon well then stirring the soup with the same spoon). Lucky she was canned. He seems to be a bit of a sex symbol in the UK, doesn't he?!

I am not looking forward to the turkeys getting killed (specifically to the children's reaction to it). I love that he named them after rival chefs, though.

Yeah, the names are pretty funny. Too bad some of them were the wrong sex for their namesakes LOL Still, as much as he and, more specifically, his wife think that the children will be OK with the turkey slaughter I do think it will upset them. It seemed like he was willing to let a couple of them live on but his wife was totally against keeping them any longer.

I love this show. Giles, the food critic, is so much fun to watch! The last thing I was expecting to see covered in a cooking program was male fertility and the effects of a poor diet on sperm quality. How poor diet has created a problem with conception because of deformity of the sperm. Him going to the doctor and having his sperm analyzed was jaw-droppingly funny! LOL!

I think Gordon teaching his children about where their food comes from is very good, but I have to agree with he experts about how difficult the situation is going to be for his children because of naming the turkeys.

Another thing that happpens on the show is that he competes against a guest in cooking a dessert. Then the finished dessert is sent out to a few of the guests who judge who's dessert is the best. Whichever dessert wins is the dessert that is served to the guests that evening. I think Gordon has lost all but one of these competitions so far! It's killing him! I really am enjoying this show. It's much better than Hell's Kitchen.

Oh, losing almost all the dessert challenges is really killing poor old Gordon! LMAO He lost yet again this week.

The turkey slaughter was awful to watch. Judging from the preview of next week's show it looks like Gordon't children are fine with losing the turkeys. Still, could have done without them showing each and every single turkey being killed.

I love the side bits of the show with Giles and with the lady who does market research reports. It's amazing what supermarkets are allowed to get away with.

Watching Gordon on this show (and the other BBCA shows he does) certainly puts him in a light most Americans don't get to witness from the show he does here.
