Marco Pierre White is back.

Have a look!

Same format as last time, with such celebs as Anthea Turner, her hubby Grant Bovey, Ade Edmondson and Ms Dynamite.

What are your views on this? I quite liked the last series - Marco came across well, despite his made-for-television customer ejections - but I think it lacked the rivalry elemnet of previous seasons.

Should provide some interesting viewing, whatever.

Marco sure is intent on being on television. After the supreme failure of The Chopping Block, one would think he'd realize he wasn't built for television and go into hiding. Maybe even cook a dish or two, but probably just hide. That's how I'd prefer it.

Indeed. Haven't see The Chopping Block, but heard a lot of the horrific reviews.

It seems strange for someone who built so much of his persona on being distant, reclusive and narky to whore himself out so spectacularly to television.

That said, he was a truly great chef and is a fascinating character. For those reasons alone he is superior to most TV chefs.
