The People's Cookbook with Antony Worral-Thompson and Paul Rankin [link]

I have seen postings about the Market Kitchen but not the one above.

I am sorry if this has already been discussed I don't get on here as regularly as I used to and may have missed any postings about it. If so please accept my apologies and ignore me.

Pity the search of the messageboards is no longer available.

No, I haven't seem much discussed about this one either, agree about losing the search facility, the only thing that worried me when I fist read about it was

"60 recipes uncovered by UKTV Food’s expert team of researchers and foodies"

who are they please?

Hi Rosti, another bit that puzzled me was "...a nationwide call to action asking people to submit their favourite recipes and stories online at www.uktvfood.co.uk...". The submitted recipes were then used for the 60 recipes in the programmes.

As I said previously I have not been posting regularly but I cannot remember them asking for recipes on the messageboards for instance.

Again being able to search the messageboards as we were always able to do previously might have helped clear that up perhaps.

I understand that the nationwide call for recipes is due to start in Feb. 2007.

Hope this gets better management than the last national competition! Should be good fun.

I wonder what happens if we submit recipes which are used in the book and generate a profit for the publishers. Will we get a share?

Hi Chef de Maison, the link I gave to the press release says the final 60 are already chosen, for instance there is an 83 year old lady called Flossie and a retired librarian called Irene.

Also according to the press release the programme is 20 episodes and is due to run from Monday 12th through to Friday 23rd. There may be repeats after that too

As to your last point - have a look at the terms and conditions link at the bottom of the page and at point number 6 in particular. Basically anything you post on here you are giving to uktv.

Hi again David, I had already posted another reply but it has gone for some reason.

When I had a more thorough check of the press release I found at the very bottom that when the programme begins in February there will be a nationwide call for recipes but those recipes are for the second series.

So we were both right in one way or another. Anyhow please accept my apologies for doubting your information. I will use senility and poor eyesight as my excuse!

Hi Terry. No problem, no apology necessary. I too am getting old.

I am surprised that UKTV may be about to publish recipes which we have developed and then published on this site to help other users. I certainly did not put my recipes on this site in order to make celebrity chefs richer. I will look with interest on what is published and to credits for those recipes.

Final thought. While I accept the rules of UKTV for this site, I can find no reference to publishing in this form and even if such exists elsewhere I do not believe that it could be applied in retrospect.

Interesting?

Happy cooking.

David

Hi David, unfortunately that is what you agree to by putting anything that is yours on the boards.

From the Terms and Condtions point number 6 says it all:

6. Where you are invited to submit any contribution to this Website (including without limitation any text, graphics, video or audio) you grant UKTV INTERACTIVE LTD a perpetual, royalty-free, non-exclusive, sublicenseable right and license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, create derivative works from, distribute, perform, play, and exercise all copyright and publicity rights with respect to any such work and/or to incorporate it in other works in any media now known or later developed for the full term of any rights that may exist in such content, consistent with privacy restrictions set forth in UKTV INTERACTIVE LTD's Privacy Policy which is reproduced below.

However, at the very least a submitter should be cited and accredited as the recipe source.

Thanks for the clarification Terry.

I understand now and will wait to see what is actually produced. If we are credited all will be well.

Hi Amanda,

Thanks for the information, it looks like this could be fun!

One question for you. When we log our recipes, stories and video clips will we be doing it under our real names?

Regards

David
