Thrive to spite them

I'd love to be able to see Masterchef UK. I watched the first series and I really liked it. It's very different from the US show. For example contestants compete in heats and only the winners from each heat compete for the Masterchef title.

Also the challenges are different. In the first series contestants were often asked to identify by sight various things - like herbs or whole fish. Which I would love to see on the US version.

Because books.

My mom LOVED Masterchef UK. And I just noticed The F Word on BBC -- I'm going to try to catch one.

askye,

well thanks for that recommendation. I'll have to internet surf for the BBC version. I wonder if it is on netflix?

Now, don't get me wrong, I shamelessly love disco, but this is what they are giving these kids to work with at the finale?

Who's the male guest judge?
