I really enjoyed this series and whilst I know some people have a problem with the large tongued mockney, the dishes he concocted on his way around the country were pure foody pron.

Anyway last night he was driving his mobile kitchen (old army lorry) called "The cock in cider" (phnaar phnaar!) around Scotland. Except he wasn't, it was ..........inside shot - Land Rover Defender, then outside shot - lorry, then inside Defender again.

A really obvious continuity error particularly since the lorry has a steering wheel the same size as the one on HMS Victory.

On another subject why do all the TV Chefs drive Defenders? : Rick Stein, Hugh FW, Jamie Oliver, Valentine thingy all seen tootling around in them recently.

I have seen quite a few in this series and i thought it was quite interesting. I saw what you meant about the Defender but not sure why that was done?. Perhaps he does not actually drive the lorry ?

Don't know if anyone else noticed how much swearing was comming out of his fat tounged mouth - probably watching too much Gordon fking fking fking fking fking Ramsey, I dont mind that just seems odd thing to start when not done before.

I saw the wheel thing too. The Mrs laughed and called me a smart arse when I said he is driving a Defender and then the outside shot was a lorry. Knew I was right...

His book (which is very good) to accompany the series is on "special offer" at a well known high street book shop for £15.00 (RRP is £30.00).

A nice stocking filler (non pun intended!).laugh

Didn't Heston have an M5 (the lucky sod)?
