I watch cooking programs to improve my cooking skills, however I do like to follow recipes to ensure that what I make turns out like what James Martin cooks on TV. However to follow a recipe from James is impossible. "add some flour" "a bit of sauce" and verious other vague ingredients and amounts makes up most of the show. To finish an episode with "and if you want the complete recipe go to the website" begs the question "why am I watching the program at all" if it's all on line. Anthony Warrell Thomson used to put up the ingredients list on the left of the screen for a couple of minutes which allowed me to copy them down, can't James Martin do the same?
