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.

    • There can be different vaccine versions for different age groups. Two weeks after having my two from DL at TJHC I have today a text from TJGP to say free flu vaccine is available for me  at the practice, and asking me to book online (where next appointment offered shows as 13 November). Years ago, when the two practices were still in Melbourne Grove, the GP practice was similarly not aware that I'd already had my flu vaccine at DL.  This time I can see my 9 October Covid one in my NHS online GP Acute Medicines records, and then, at the end of the entries: "Unknown Date "Influenza vaccine (surface antigen, inactivated) suspension for injection 0.5ml pre-filled syringes ..." I'm wondering if this date error is happening to others getting dual vaccinations from the TJ DL, or any other DL branches.  And whether it's turning up in the patient records of any other GP practice.
    • What kind of witch hunt is this? mandatory facial recognition? prison for shoplifters? Shops can protect their stock as they wish. but they choose profits first.  The obvious solution would be delivery only - and when you can get your shopping in 15minutes, who really needs to go to the shop? but no, the shops like the sales from people browsing and being hungry when they shop. They don't lay the shops out for our enjoyment. They don't actually care that much. If they did, there would be active and empowered security, lower stock on shelves, more security tags etc... don't be fooled. If you're going to go after shoplifters, go after the organised crime, theft to order etc
