The Chef's Brigade BBC2 Tuesday at 9.00

Are you breaching anonymity here Jura ?

Certainly not my aim- GNHQ will delete if they think I am.

They do not share names- and I really cannot possibly fathom how it could be in any way misused. I think Carol would have been very proud- and he has asked me to share as widely as possible. Sad.

Have reported to GN for advice- will trust their decision.

Thank you, jura. It's always nice to have an interest in a participant, however tenuous.

Yes. She would have been very proud indeed.

I was unsure whether to watch it, but I will now. Thanks for letting us know.

He has just sent me a message to say he is not in tonight's episode. Sad to hear someone reported me for posting- and glad to hear from GNHQ that it is fine.

There’s always one!

Was Carol the gran who went missing in your area Jura 2?
I can’t remember her username.
If this is so then it’s nice to keep her memory alive,

She would indeed be proud of her grandson as her whole family were proud of her.

I saw an interview with Jason Atherton on BBC Breakfast this morning and he said all the participants 'can cook a bit.'

Is Simon already a head chef in a London restaurant or did that happen after the series was filmed?

Yes Juliette.

merlot, it all happened very fast after the show ... he left his job in the City only a couple of years back- so he has done extremely well.

Well, Jason Atherton, with your towering ego, sitting on a newly cleaned stainless table at the end of the episode to deliver your verdict. There's a well known saying in the world of catering.

'Tables are for rissoles, not ar**holes.'

This programme is just all talk.
