i think ade done whelks with asparagus but there wasnt much emphasis on the food was there ?

Didn't we watch the celebrities get taught the dishes before service last year?

I didn't like tonight's format. I hope it was just a one-off to get to know the celebrities.

No, there was absolutely no focus on food at all, which was a but disappointing. As a viewer, we don't know what's happening, who's mucking up etc.

Hopefully this doesn't continue, I loved seeing the several bottles of ketchup and HP sauce in every meal

I think the idea was to focus on the Celebs on the first night

Or was it to focus on Marco.

Agreed! It was definitely to focus on Marco- but surely food should come into it, as he became famous for being a chef, not a bandana wearing lunatic!

It's only the first episode, I'm sure they will focus more on foodage and who's doing what as the series progresses.

The menu is here but you have to squint a bit:

Don't think that was tonight's though.
