I bought it as it was so cheap. There are a couple of decent recipes and a couple of reasonable hints. Overall I was disappointed with this as it failed to meet my expectations being overly simplistic and (have I mentioned this already) having a very annoying presentation style. Overall worth it for under a fiver but only just!

I can only imagine that Jamie Oliver wrote the script for this himself. Provided you dont get irritated by the continual "take the old saucepan and chuck in the old wine and give it a stir with yer old wooden spoon etc etc" this is ok.
