River Cottage

Ah, FearTheHands beat me to it, hey ho ...

'The View from River Cottage looks back at Hugh's life in Dorset and discovers that over his years there, he has learned a set of rules - or principles - to grow by, to cook by and even to live by'

 

That sounds like techspeak for 'rehash'

I hope his cooking has improved, there are only so many way you can cut up a pig and serve it.

I saw a clip from one of his road trips and he is on a haggis hunt, gets one too.

I enjoy it, love the way he mucks in with the locals

im afraid the last "proper" series was a bit convoluted and stage managed.still it is an enjoyable bit escapism.i believe he does 3 day courses under his river glutton label wher they go out boat fishing and catch fish to eat,and try various meat dishes.

I hope it all works out for them as their French is some what limited

I hope it works out for them too. Do you know whereabouts their place is? I have a little place in Normandie myself although I have the advantage of speaking French quite well. If they really want to succeed they will need to learn French, but if I can do it so can anyone.

Peter Waller:

I enjoy it too, but the reality is not good. Without TV and book fees he'd never survive, so its not quite as idealistic as it appears !

Old Etonians always seem to get by, Peter...

Or is it more to do with the alumni of the River Cafe where both HF-W and Jamie Oliver worked?
