I was watching today's episode where Sat and Glynn were cooking their fish courses. I may be wrong but I'm sure Sat's sous chef was the guy from Masterchef Goes Large. A short stocky/plump fella with designer stubble. I think he got through to the semi finals or final a year or so ago! Did anybody else notice this guy? I'm tearing my hair out now 'cause I just don't know!!!! :0)

Thank you so much talulahhh. So I was right and I still have some hair left after all of that pulling!!!

It was really nice to see a previous winner forging ahead without any fuss, media attention or their own television programme (sorry Tomasina!). He obviously wants to learn from the best and make his mark. Good for him.

And what was so ignorant about my comment?

The guy isn't just a sous chef. He's obviously smart enough to realise that he doesn't yet know it all. He's learning from one of the best and no doubt has plans to open his own restaurant in time. With such a high percentage of new restaurants failing then I think he is being very smart. As my old dad used to say, "sometimes you need to take one step backwards in order to reach your final destination".

Jeez cool your jets babsky! I thought this was a friendly and welcoming forum? I think I've posted in a friendly and approachable manner so why the hostility?

Anyway what is so wrong about being a worthy lieutenant to the captain? They're an essential part of the kitchen and invaluable if you find a good one. If he is happy, content and feels that he is progressing then who are we to put him down? You accuse me of insulting Tomasina but you are doing that very thing with your comments about Steven Wallis!

I thought the guy did a really good job this week and offered something totally different. He brought more life into the proceedings and the banter with Matt Tebbutt and occasional quips made it so much more entertaining. The dodgy past may of left him behind but he has still kept that jack the lad type of personality which I find quite endearing.
