Gordon Ramsay, Jamie Oliver and Hugh Fernley-Wernley are joined by Heston Blumenthal for this year’s Great British Food Fight season on Channel 4, in which they’ll no doubt be explaining the value of liquorice-flavoured ocelot as a price-beating food source. However, the trailer for it is worth watching, even if you’re not a foodie, if only for the appearance of a certain DeLorean and the general ‘camaraderie’.
I’m Rob Buckley, a journalist who writes for UK media magazines that most people have never heard of although you might have heard me on the podcast Lockdown Land or Radio 5 Live’s Saturday Edition or Afternoon Edition. I’ve edited Dreamwatch, Sprocket and Cambridge Film Festival Daily; been technical editor for TV producers magazine Televisual; reviewed films for the short-lived newspaper Cambridge Insider; written features for the even shorter-lived newspaper Soho Independent; and was regularly sarcastic about television on the blink-and-you-missed-it “web site for urban hedonists” The Tribe. Since going freelance, I've contributed to the likes of Broadcast, Total Content + Media, Action TV, Off The Telly, Action Network, TV Scoop and The Custard TV.
