Question 4

and now, a TV Chef who has had a BBC series since 2000 which had their name in the title. Programmes first shown before 2000 and subsequently repeated don't count

Some surprising incorrect answers here, especially Jamie Oliver who I would have confidently called as correct. A few names who never quite managed to get their name in the title of the show they presented, and the gurning fool Ainsley Harriott hasn't managed a programme with his name in since 1999..

Passes
moonandback
Mehtab
Waz1892
Stato_1
Tikay
Ironside
Tomson87
George2Loose
Sharplea
Mondatoo

Three chose..
Ant040689   Nigella Lawson
Stribling   Nigella Lawson
jeeves      Nigella Lawson

two picked Delia and Rick
RedsGirl   Delia Smith
Claw75   Delia Smith

TightEnd   Rick Stein
Longines   Rick Stein

Aces
Borntobubble   James Martin

Cf      Michel Roux jr

Incorrect   5+3  = 8
Horseplayer – Anthony Worral Thompson
Mulhuzz – Nigel Slater
Fatcatstu – Ainsley Harriott
Millidonk – Jamie Oliver
HutchGF – Loraine Pascalle
kinboshi – Rachel Khoo
Tal – Simon Rimmer (UKTV may well be 50% owned by the BBC but it ain't the BBC)
MintTrav – Keith Floyd

Why is Rachel Khoo a fail?

There is no gull called a SeaGull either - I asked for a tree listed on the Woodlands Trust website...

Er, no you didn't.

But I'm tired of that one now. You're obviously not going to change your deranged mind.

Please explain why you think Keith Floyd is not correct.

Because as far as my research can show he didn't make any programmes which met the criteria set in the question. Show me an Imdb entry to support your belief that he did? I am open to reasonable argument...

It seems you are correct. Although he was mainly associated with the BBC, his later shows were for other channels. I cannot dispute that.

I can, however, wonder why on earth you specified which channel they had to be on. Who would know that? A TV chef with their name in the title would have been a more reasonable question, without having to specify stuff that no-one would know.

yeah, it's a puzzle ain't it, why have questions at all really, why not just ask everybody to give themselves a score and the nearest to a random number selected in advance by rachel riley's RNG wins?

The book (that I bought for the missus) was called that, but the TV series had a longer title - that included her name.

why when willow and poplar have been shown to be logically and practically correct do the objections need significant support from others with no knowledge of willows and poplars? Bizarre. I object once more.
