It must have been difficult to keep things up during this pandemic, but you've kept the channel going and I hope the whole team know how much what they've done to make this year tolerable for so many of us, truly means. Thankyou x

    Not even 2 minutes in and Jamie is trying to make the chefs cry. I think he has a high chance of doing that, maybe not because of the emotion he was going for. But we'll see.

    Don't think they cried, but Jamie had a standout performance. It looked delicious! Will surely be something i'll try (except maybe not torching the veggies to coal)
