delightfully exquistite

The English will know this, but for the rest of the world I will update you on Mr delightful, Mark Nicholas.

He is hosting a show called Britain’s best meal.

And he is just as irritating, and never stops moving when he is talking.

At one stage he looked as if he was going to break into an Elaine dancing bit as he discussed the “competition”.

The show is undoubtedly a runaway hit as it seems to show at about 5 o’clock, just after they go off for bad light.

In the show members of the general public battle against each other for titles such as best pudding.

True story.

It is a weirdly gay English mash up of the iron chef, pop idol and ready steady cook.

Mark Nicholas looks uncomfortable as the host, and didn’t even pop out a delightful or exquisite on the episode I saw.

The whole thing made me feel a bit uncomfortable.

I don’t like Nicholas, but this seemed like cruel and unusual torture.

Then I stopped feeling sorry for him when he built up the battle of the puddings like it was Warne V Lara.

I may never be able to take him seriously as a commentator again.

Ok that is taking it a bit far, as it implies I once did.

The good news he moved his customary anal licking speech over to the amateur chefs.

Glad to know his tongue isn't permanently up Shane Warne or Adam Gilchrist's back passage.www.cricketwithballs.com... Aussie Haiku straight to your box
