    You'd think that given the number of close up shots of Greg shovelling food into his gob, that someone would have had a quiet word and suggested he work on his technique.

    I just don't understand how he got to where he has. He's just a green grocer...

    I like him. He does really, really like puddings and I respect that. He was also a member of West Ham's firm for a while in his youth.

    +1. He seems nice enough; it's just the close-up footage of him eating that's a bit heavy going. The pseudo suspense when contestants are eliminated and over-hyped commentary - "cooking doesn't get much tougher than this!" - together with the weird hardcore techno soundtrack is what annoys me. It's about cooking FFS. It is not SAS training at a warehouse rave.

    Not seen him, but isn't Alan Sugar a keen cyclist/commuter?
    Not sure about commuting but I think he's quite a keen roadie - remember skimming some article in a bike mag not so long ago about the fleet of Pinarellos he owns.

    I see him fairly regularly on the country lanes of Essex on Sunday's, Pinarello and Assos!

    The article was in Cycling Active, whicjh incidentally has a 4 (I think) page article on Gaz 'once was 39 stone' this month. Good article!

    He of the cheesey wotsit/Haribo diet? Well I guess he's a celeb now too then.
