British cuisine has a well-established bad reputation (as most of us are reminded fairly regularly). St John is a restaurant which seems to take great pride and inspiration from its British approach to cooking and ingredients. When you opened St John, were you motivated to rehabilitate "British cooking," or is this just a side effect of your particular style?

Not a concious decision to try and rehabilitate British cooking, it always just seemed common sense to cook indigenous beasts, fish and fowl when they are in season.

So, not a 'modern British' approach, but hopefully a kind of permanent British cooking.

Appropriate to time and place.
