Something for the weekend
Discussion
The only reason I can bring myself to watch this now is to marvel at the ignorance of whichever vacuous bint they have on when they try to help with the cooking.
A few weeks ago we had Pixie Lott. She hadn't seen a grater before and when handed a lemon to grate some zest into a bowl, she just stood there with a confused, vacant expression on her face.
I can only assume she's always had someone to do difficult tasks like grating for her.
I really didn't think they would find anyone thicker than the Stupid Pixie, but today they got that Kesha girl on. She's a Vegan, so you might think she understands a bit more about food and cooking, but oh no.
Air-head Kesha didn't know what a sieve does and had to be shown how to use a wooden spoon. Even then she seemed to be think it was some sort of mashing utensil to the amusement of Lovejoy.
I shall be closely monitoring SFTW over the coming weeks to see if they can find anyone denser than these two. It's obviously some sort of in joke they've got going on...

This weeks was quite good actually! Guest was Brian Cox of D:Ream fame, now no one can accuse him of being thick!!
I thought Brian Cox was being very patient putting up with Lovejoy's inane questions about matter transportation and particle physics.Lovejoy: "Why can't we use the energy from light?"
Cox: "How about solar power?"
Lovejoy: "Good answer!"
Meanwhile Louise was doing very well as the stand-in vacuous bint (or Sean Lock, in this case, as he didn't turn up) by failing miserably to cut pastry with a knife and being surprised that egg whites can be eaten.

Good show though although my personal wind up moment are the various random women who explain the overly expensive gadgets each week seemingly without a bloody clue how they work.
This week we had "Aussie pop princess" Gabriella Cilmi on the show, helping to make a risotto.
We learnt that she skipped her final exams at school to play at Glastonbury, but that's OK because "I don't need qualifications, I'm a rock star".
Ms Cilmi also revealed that she doesn't like being near eggs (especially hard-boiled ones) and needed to be shown how to grate cheese.
Here we see Gabriella struggling to grate some "wobbly cheese" while Louise attempts to use a pair of scissors. Meanwhile, Simon slashes his wrists in a desperate cry for help

Oh well, SFTW has been cancelled by the BBC, so no more after this series ends.
How I'll miss Louise and her insightful, witty banter with the guests.
The way she can read an Autocue often leaves me with a little tear in one of my eyes. It's not an emotional tear, more like a tear of laughter mixed with excruciating pain.
I won't mention her cooking skills, mainly because she doesn't have any.
Then there's 'Tech expert' Ella Williamson, who has trouble switching on a light, but it's OK because her brother is a City trader and got booted off 'Take me Out' so she'll no doubt be able to get a job on Newsnight or something.
What will I do with my Sunday mornings?????
Oh, ITV might pick it up I've heard, so all is not lost
