After the show on Ch4 the other week, this one might be a bit more respectful by the Beeb.

I'll be watching it in the caravan with my mum who is joining us to get out of the retirement home for once. She hates him coz I drink a lot which she does not like and he did. So every comment she will make I will be going the other way whilst sloshing down a nice red wine.

Regards
Andy

Really enjoyed the tribute to the great man. His work was truly timeless, and set the precedent for outdoor cooking. Suffice to say a good couple of glasses of vino were consumed during the program in his honour.

Watched this tonight on catch-up. It was far better than the crap Keith Allen threw together on C4 and gave an accurate and more respectful insight in to the Keith we all watched and loved.

Some of the clips had me in stitches and it made me want to get drunk in all honesty.

Good night Keith!

Thought this was brilliant. The man really seemed to take joy from his work and from making TV shows about cookery. Always had a smile even when it was going tits up.

Sounded like his private life was not as happy as his screen life. Shame, as he obviously brought joy and laughter to so many people.

What an excellent programme and a fitting tribute to a man who lived life to the full. It was a great watch and I raised a glass of bubbly to the a culinary icon at the end.
