Confused

There is little to be added to the comments from "Scalper" & "GFL Forever".

GFL was an extremely hard act to follow, but MK is not the answer! Close the debate and change to something more appropriate to the needs of the vast majority of food-orientated viewers.

I shall miss GFL, hugely! I do agree, however, that the replacement show should be given a chance to prove its worth, then we can compare like with like, objectively.

Regarding the apparent "London bias" of the new show, I do not live in a big city and have never had access anyway to many of the more-exotic ingredients featured regularly on GFL.

I also share the sense of loss regarding Jeni's departure from the scene. She is the ultimate professional in every sense and has no need for dependence on any food show, either now or in the future. Thank you, Jeni!

One final point, if I may. . . I do hope that the GFL recipes will continue to be made available on the UKTV Food website - either as GLF-archived items or under the appropriate "Chef" link. If not, my dinner party success rate will plummet alarmingly!

Best wishes to all who have been involved in presenting GFL to its many loyal fans.

"Great Scot". Smile

Enjoyed Gary's Appetisers and Fish progs, yesterday & today, but .......!

Disappointed the programme recipes have not been hyperlinked into UKTVfood "Recipes", or any other page on the website. Have searched on all fronts but no recipes, which is a great shame, cos they all look great on the progs.

Anybody found them, please?!

Regards,

Great Scot

I was so looking forward to the second half of GFL tonight (Thursday) after the 6.30ish advert break, especially the lasagne demo.

Guess what. The first half of the programme was repeated!

Only 4 out of 10 for this one, I'm afraid!

Regards,

Great Scot
