Morning/Arvo OM.

He used to be well liked, held in esteem for his love of British Food, Products and Producers. Good old Spikey adding another twist, flavour or idea to bring a bit of sparkle to British Classics.
Then for some reason a few years back he started to get picked to host, run, dictate and judge shows like Local Food Hero, then came India and his insulting attitude to those who know the Cuisine of India a million times better than he, topped off at the London Banquet when he served Bread & Butter Pudding because Indians don't do desserts.
He has become so up himself our once hero has, in a short space of time, turned himself into the anti christ of British Chefs.
Obviously I can't talk for others, so just my opinion about someone I rated very highly and still do but for his past work, not a thing he has done in the last few years. If he is not carefull, he will do a "Fanny Craddock, self destruct".
