Monty Don is flogging a cook book in case you hadn't noticed. Miles of free time on Breakfast, stuffing his face on Saturday Kitchen with that (olive) oily car salesman James Martin, and wall to wall BBC radio probably.


Ordinary folk are also invited to go on Saturday Kitchen but I don't suppose they'd let you flog your book

Oh Steve and Reggie, ffs, personal respect for the pair of you aside, you're talking absolute cobblers.


Twas ever thus - Reggie, producers only want celebrities on their shows? Well yah-ha, because they've already proven popular with the punters, so there's every chance that'll make their shows more popular too.


There are opportunities aplenty for emerging talent - the notion of personal responsibility would suggest you use them, rather than slag off producers for giving Joe Public what he wants.



Edited because Narnia said it pithier...

There are not oodles of opportunities for emerging talent. Programme making is a business, a business that even the BBC have to engage in to keep up with rival broadcasters. Known formats and celebrities guarantee ratings as opposed to taking risks. It's a business I know very well.

    • A friend has asked me to recommend Juliene for regular cleaning as she has some slots available. Her phone number is 07751426567
    • I'd put short odds on that but who would be his likely successor?
    • Hi, I went to the council's planning portal to look at the application, and I encourage others to look at it. It looks like a pleasant building, with thoughtful landscaping. as Pugwash said, the big oak would be retained, only two smaller trees are supposed to be cut, one of which is already dead according to the Tree Survey. It sounds like 38 people in great need of it will gain supported housing thanks to this development, a very positive change. Of course a solution has to be found for the 3 who will need to find other accommodation during the works, but that doesn't seem enough of a reason to oppose the development. The current building is 4 stories, so I would be surprised if one extra storey was considered objectionable, especially considering the big oak stands between the building and the neighbours' back gardens and the fact that the neighbours it's backing onto are all 5 stories houses themselves or only have blank walls facing the building. In the context where affordable housing is sorely missing, a 100% supported housing development is great news. Personally I've never seen a less objectionable planning request
    • I also wonder if all this, recently events and so many u turns is going to also be the end of Kier Starmer.
