I caught some of 'Sunday Feast' today, apparently 'Saturday Cooks' sister show.

Good to see Anneka back on screen after 10 years, but who's bright idea was it to put the irritating Andi Peters on with her ? The man never shuts up and as far as I'm concerned has never properly made the transition from kids TV. The lovely Anneka could easily carry this show on her own, she has a big enough personality.

There was something in the paper the other day that ITV want her to reprise Challenge Anneka as well.

Yes Worrall-Thompson is a great cook but he has an annoying weasel like presence.

I really don't understand ITV's logic of having cookery programmes on at the same time as the BBC AND on both Saturday & Sunday mornings. Totally madness, it won't take long for viewers to get bored.

What is it with their "I have an idea and I am going to milk it dry until you sick of it" tactics?

I do think there's a distint Alan Partridge mentality amongst TV bosses these days...

"People like them - let's make more of them."
