With the commonwealth games on the horizon it’s only fair that I offer visitors to the city some insight into the best things to do in Birmingham. No Peaky Blinders, no baltis, no getting on a barge – this is the real Birmingham experience. After you get off the train at New Street, Moor StreetContinue reading “Five best things to do in Birmingham during the Commonwealth Games”

A guide to buying your Christmas turkey.

With pubs flinging their doors open on whatever they can feasibly describe as a ‘garden’ we’re finally allowed to nail lovely pints like the absolute chug lords we are. Hooray! I’ve seen lots of social media noise over the last few days of people competing to show whether they’re more excited about pubs or gymsContinue reading “Bad pints”

ieboys.com? The last year has taught us many things, like how much the British public enjoy fetishizing war veterans, that it’s impossible to buy too much toilet paper and that you don’t need to be sat in an office five days a week to be capable of sending emails. One of the eye-openers for me,Continue reading “The end of food…”

There are four of them again! Hooray! Here comes the slow motion walk to the studio, and these are the headlines: • Jahdre got 3 hours sleep. • Joe thinks he can go all the way. • Luke is nervous. Again, imagine not getting chosen to do that bit because what you said was dullerContinue reading “Masterchef the Professionals: Series 13 episode 8”

I feel sorry for the three blokes who took part in this episode, not just because for large parts of it they weren’t very good, but because everyone watching was more interested in what happened to the fourth contestant who was subsequently edited out. The start of the show told us: ‘this programme has beenContinue reading “Masterchef the Professionals: Series 13 episode 7”

Here we go again. Jabari, Ash, Ross all get an intro bit tonight as they do their slow motion walk to the studio, wonder who the fourth is and how boring what they said must have been? Monica wants them to trim some lamb, she is sick of Wareing White Walker (WWW) getting all theContinue reading “Masterchef the Professionals: Series 13 episode 5”

Yes! GregGbot 2000 is back, he’s been plugged in to charge and he’s ready to pull his faces again, it’s also good for me as I now have something to write about. No female contestants tonight, which I think sets the horrid tone for this episode. First skills test, Marcus wants them to chop upContinue reading “Masterchef the Professionals: Series 13 episode 4”

How is it possibly the quarter finals already? One of these people has made it this far having only proved he can make custard. I made strawberry Angel Delight tonight and you don’t see me being jerked off by William Sitwell as a result. No GregG at this stage of the competition, not needed, hisContinue reading “Masterchef the Professionals: Series 13 episode 3”

That’s right, I’ve decided to start writing reviews of episodes of Masterchef. That’s also right, I’m starting at episode two as the idea only came to me during episode two and I’ll be damned if I’m watching episode one again. Four contestants tonight, Victor, Michaela, Dave and Harrison. First up the skills test. Wareing, whoContinue reading “Masterchef the Professionals: Series 13 episode 2”
