    Well, not exactly the massive challenge I was hoping for, but looks good!

    Vacuum-packed lamb shanks? Sweet Lord divine. Unreal.

    Anyone else watching?

    Have to say though, at least it's not as hammed up as his US version.

    Yeah its great... comparing this to the over-edited, over-produced, censored US version is like comparing the Rolling Stones to Westlife. Leagues apart.

    In fairness it's still pretty much manufactured drama, from the family breakdowns to the canned rage, entirely watchable however.

    I never though I would see pure evil in a microwave bag. Now I have.

    Don't get me wrong, I do watch it. :)

    Season 2 of KN-USA is on next Friday on C4, and hopefully it will be uncensored (s1 was) - it should be funnier.

    For the show tonight, 2 hours was too long. It started to drag towards the end.

    Haha yeah, I watch the US version too, can't help myself! Even if sometimes his rage doesn't seem as genuine as the UK episodes. Last night, he did seem genuinely upset over that well-done steak...

    Those two restaurant owners last night were a shocking example of the credit boom years. Your man being sent a £7,900 limit credit card in the post! He was unreal, don't know how his wife put up with him at all.
