Not according to The Guardian EM.

As an aside did anyone else notice that at times her speech was slightly mangled? A friend had alerted me to her appearance on The One Show a week or so ago wondering if she was a bit p****d. I’m not sure it was that but her enunciation was a bit odd at times, especially near the beginning. Probably just me gone looking.

Yes - I noticed that too. It was an excellent program though.

[Earthmaiden]

I caught the very end and thought exactly that. Definitely something not quite right. Will watch the rest when I can, the subject matter sounded interesting.

[PatsyMFagan]

Yes, thought the same ......

[scullion]

i noticed her rather exaggerated hand movements more than her voice although my partner asked what was wrong with her speech.

[Stokey Sue]

I’ve just watched Nigella - I wouldn’t say her speech was slurred at all, more the sort of slowly staccato delivery some people have after a TIA or various other things, which might also explain the coordination issues. She seemed to have a little trouble finding her mouth with her fingers.

I need to go to Amsterdam again - I have both friends and family there. As long as there are no speculaas involved, not keen.

[scullion]

my first thought was mnd or ms.

[Stokey Sue]

Something like that - was she walking with a stick at one point? She has lost weight too.

[Gruney]

I briefly thought she'd had one or two "Amsterdamages", as she called them, but quickly dismissed the thought - the program would not have been made or shown, if that were the case. Yes, I'm sure I 've seen her with a sitck, and I too thought she'd lost a fair bit of weight. I didn't feel her speech was slurred - more a careful attempt to choose the right word and to enunciate it correctly. A bit worrying.

Series 1 of this was absolutely marvellous. https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radi ... -for-hours

Sarah Lancashire was phenomenal. It must be available somewhere.

[scullion]

It must be available somewhere.

now tv - the catchup channel for sky.

[Pepper Pig]

Did anyone catch this? The trailer looked good. https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radi ... v-in-years

[Badger's Mate]

I didn’t, but the review is certainly tempting. Thanks for posting.

Thanks PP. Places I know which makes it more fun. I didn't think I could get that channel but I can!

I wish Food Network had subtitles....I just can't understand a word anyone says..

[Earthmaiden]

I've just watched the first Roux programme. Thanks so much for highlighting it, PP. I thought it was lovely and the food was wonderful - it's made me want to cook!

I think I had the oxtail & kidney pud when we (BBC boarders) went to the Hinds Head at Bray a good few years ago now.

[Pepper Pig]

Yes, I thought it was mouthwatering too. I've been to the Waterside. It's such a lovely setting!

New series of the Hairy Bikers starts tonight in Bute.

Loving the smoked duck burgers on this week’s Michel Roux. Not seen Tunworth used like that before. https://foodnetwork.co.uk/recipes/miche ... -mushrooms
